    Harden is not messing around this year guys. He wants the RING.

    Dwight looks very good tonight on defense. He is swatting everything in his vicinity and is altering alot of other shots. Harden, Garcia, Bev and Dwight look amazing. Bench looks like crap.

    Nah. They assessed his ass enough. He is DLeague bound. He needs to decide whether he wants to be a Can-aan or a Cannot-aan.

    Dwight is showing why he will help us so much on the defensive end, he has been solid tonight.

    also i reckon we are going to see James Harden have a career year, i know he was great last season but the way he has been shooting the ball and leading from the front, he just looks so comfortable as the main man now

    That's the thing.. dwight when healthy is the best defensive center in the game. he can single-handedly bring the opposition ppg and/or pooinbts per possession down the year by 1.5-2 while his offense will be no worse than Asik's if not 3-5 ppg better.. His defense will likely make us a far better team than his O, but his acquisition is so much more than the actual box score

    They decided to take a night off together. Sightseeing, hotel, walks in the park, the usual

    Probably just getting the game off.

    McHale is probably going to give the heavy-minutes guys a game off. Just not all at the same time.

    If you are talking about SG position, I might agree to it.
    But if it's guard position as a whole, I think you didn't watch how Rose's playing at the same time.

    If Asik were playing they would be so much better on defense. At this point of his career hopefully D-Mo is not going to be spending 8 minutes a half at center. Maybe this time next season.

    With Dwight, open shots come so easy.

    And they haven't even really run the floor much or used the pick and roll.

    Lin is sick so Parsons decided to go give him a hot beef injection.
