    That may be but you can't tell me you are feeling good at all about this OKC series cause I sure as hell am not with this crew and no Russ.

    Harden took Horford's lunch in the low post.

    Wth, shoulda been flagrant on embiid, clear frustration foul

    I guess he got the tech for throwing the ball near embiids feet. After embiid body checked him

    Harden's post defense is inspiring, man.

    Refs already getting a head start for what’s to come in the playoffs.

    Silver gonna make that call. OKC beating the Rockets would be great for ratings.

    I'm feeling ok, its not gonna be easy. But we have the best player on the floor. Lets at least wait till game 1, till we panic okay?

    Gordon can’t shoot and yet still takes a three from 5 feet behind the arc.

    Ben Mclemore has to have an insanely bad net defensive rating.

    I feel like we can actually get stops when he's not on the floor.

    The whole "resume" was a gimmick made too good to be true. The driving force of many players is the experience of the opposing fans, air travel on a private jet and the pressure of home court.

    EG needs to shoot as many shots as he needs to take to get his shot back.

    Harden should have got free throws for that obvious foul... and then we should have got the ball back. Except, Embiid got a technical foul for some unknown reason.

    Got to love the bias against James Harden.
