    He had a bad game tonight but it's still ok. He was not the only one. Ariza and Harden couldn't find their shooting.

    NBA is a long season. He just needs to learn from this game and minimize his errors.

    He also needs to develop a midrange shot if his 3 is not going in. Or you know, take one step in like Lin's step on the 3pt line. I think if he does that, his shots will start going in.

    On the bright side, Memphis just lost to the Bucks so at least we are still atop our division at 6-1!

    Why worry about the media? Other outlets can say the same thing if the Rockets win. After all, Rockets have only beaten one team with a winning record (?)

    Missed opportunity tonight but the good news is there are very easy games coming up. Next 4 of 5 games should be impossible to lose (Lakers, 76ers, OKC, Twolves). If they won tonight, they could have started the season 10-0

    This clown must have just checked the box score. It was an ugly game for both teams.

    Technically it was close towards the end. 11 points difference is well below their average 14.8 :)

    Why do you get upset of these things? It's just the way statistics work. Heat fans can say the same for the Rockets game where it was a 4pt game with 7 minutes left in the 4th

    Ha! It took them one half to figure out how to use Bogut's advantage in the paint. Otherwise he was playing outside.

    We can handle their perimeter guys. Game started to turn when we gave away the ball and they turned these into transition points. Otherwise, our defense held them to a poor shooting night.

    Send this clown back to the D-league. He's just unbelievably bad at his job.

    I dont feel bad about this loss. They were in it for as long as their bodies could hold out an with 3 starters out, that aint bad.

    This was anything but an impressive win for The Warriors. If anything it should make people question just how elite they are. I'm not the least bit upset with the loss. No Dwight, Jones or Bev. I was expecting to see a blowout. Cannan was horrible on D but his offense was decent. Would have like to see Harden on Curry for a bit bit of well. We almost pulled this out

    Golden State is even better this year from what I saw. They're playing tougher defense and are really confident shooting the ball. I didn't know they added Sean Livingston, huge pick up for them. They might have the best backcourt in the league right now.

    We had a rough night without Dwight in the middle. Seemed like it threw us off defensively and were playing sloppy back on the other side of the court. Turnovers are still a huge problem.. Some of those steals were easy pickings in the passing lanes. They should really crack down on the passing game. They were literally throwing the ball away with 6 mins left in the 4th quarter.

    It could have been worse all things considered. I'm sure they have a lot to learn and build from this one once they go back and review this game. Otherwise, it's been nice to have such a great start to kick off the 2014-15 season. Looking forward to better things to come this year *fingers crossed*.

    Tough game, it would have been a miracle to win that game without all of those players.....but DEFINITLY if Harden plays that badly....he seemed to be off in the 2nd half.

    Why, in a game where we shoot 40+ threes, do we NOT have Troy Daniels getting more playing time? He freaking won a PLAYOFF game for us, so inexperience isn't an excuse.

    David Tyree won the Giants a superbowl. They should've played him a lot more.
