    Those highlights on the first page though! My favorite play of the year so far is this block, him bringing the ball up the court like a guard and then having the court awareness to dish it off to Parsons for the fastbreak, highlight dunk. Super nice. Lots of skills on display here. Help defense, rim protection, fluid athleticism, ball handling, court vision, and passing...I like it. Oh yeah, nice finish by Chandler too. That's how you go up strong. PPat would have tried to shoot a fadeway layup right there. :grin:

    I watched that and was angry that they didn't call a foul. Almost seemed like a flagrant foul to me.

    Yeah Parsons was very fortunate right there. That could have been ugly. Kenneth Faried is a ragamuffin.

    Yup, same here. Bulls was right on the money about that, that could have injured parsons pretty bad and in the context of like 4 straight plays there were blatant fouls they just ignored.

    Yup, the officiating of that game was pretty damn awful, and awfully inconsistent, in my opinion. Not the first game this year where the officiating, at least to me, seemed bizarre far too often. What gives?

    Young players getting better! Both have potential. TJones needs to work on his court awareness, especially offensively, and he will take a HUGE step forward.

    Terrence is more like the black Antoine Walker. Similar to regular Antoine Walker, but better.

    What a ****ing stud.

    Still makes some rookie mistakes but he's playing outstanding basketball on both ends of the floor.

    We've been up by 20+ the whole game and Harden is still playing 30+ min. I swear McHale does not understand how to rest his star players...
