TJones is so athletic, impressive first show.Harden a horrible night even with great stats.Ugly but a needed win.
Good solid win. Everyone played well for the most part. I'm really excited about TJones. Dude is athletic and can grab boards. I'm LOVING the Asik/Smith combo to start the game too. DMo shouldn't see the floor anymore honestly. And why is everyone saying Harden shouldn't have come back? Dude almost had a triple double, lol. Off shooting night but played well and facilitated great. Getting hacked all night too. Lin with the HUGE 3 down the stretch. I hope we get Delfino back soon.
IMO DMo should not play in the playoffs. Probably not TRob either. Smith can hold down the fort backed up by Delfino and maybe TJones.
TJones is biggest surprise in the game. Coach should be blamed for playing him this late into the season.
Man missed most of the game again! T-Jones?! What the hell happened? Can someone recap? Also how did Harden look? I noticed that Evans and Thornton combined for 43. Ouch, was it really that bad? I AM NOT A HARDEN HATER! I am just nervous about his health heading into the playoffs. The team with the best player often wins playoff series. With Harden, that is us against a lot of teams. I see Parsons had a career night. Smith foul trouble? Everything else looks par for the course. Why no Delfino? Well, that's all I can get from the box score. Please fill in the blanks for me. Thanks!
Harden better not quit on the team if s*** don't go his way. Seriously though, why did Harden play 40mins? He doesn't seem to be fully recovered from his injury... smh.
Who's your Top 5 Player of the Game? Here's mine: TOP 5 PLAYER OF THE GAME: 1. Chandler Parsons: 29 Pts, 67% FG, 5 Rebs, 4 Assists 2. Omer Asik: 19 Pts, 75% FG, 10 Rebs, 1 Assists 3. Terrence Jones: 14 Pts., 55% FG, 12 Rebs, 1 Assists 4. James Harden: 21 Pts, 36% FG, 7 Rebs, 9 Assists 5. Jeremy Lin: 15 Pts, 38% FG, 1 Rebs, 10 Assists
I think playing Harden more reasonable minutes is not the same as conceding the 6th spot. I think we're gonna get it regardless or least bring it down to the last few games. Harden should just play his game on both ends and McHale should limit his minutes until the playoffs.
Outside of Harden & Lin, and sometimes Parsons, those other players depended on Harden & Lin to get them baskets. Now that they don't have Harden & Lin, the two primary playmakers for the team, they easily do not look as good.
