    He's impressive. That 1 on 1 post defense on West, managed to push him out.

    Harrell is already there defensively. What a pick by Morey.

    This guy is going to play some significant minutes this year against some of the top teams in the league.

    From handling West battling down low, to realising that pump fake from Ginobili was coming and not biting... Very nice.

    I have no doubts Montrezl will; he should stay on even after Dmo gets back IMO.

    Did McHale take a page from Kerr? Playing small ball and up the tempo...Rockets will be dangerous this year for any team.

    Warriors vs Rockets WCF part II?

    Defense was bad early, Spurs offense is still incredible. Defense for us picked up, then got the score back to even.

    Love the hustle from Harrell, once he picks up timing and positioning at this level, will be comparable to Faried 2-3 years down the road.

    I like this bench unit. Make sure Lawson is on the floor when Harden is on the bench.

    Yeah, no joke. For this game, their strength is our weakness.

    I wish I didn't hate the Spurs so much, I'd probably really enjoy Ginobli if I didn't. That being said, dam him and his crafty shooting.

    Interesting it's Brewer that is sparking offense and not Lawson.

    in a loosy goosy game like this the old unathletic sperms, and particularly ginobli, are big beneficiaries. in a big game with both teams going all out our quickness and athleticism is going to overwhelm SAS imo. and we are going to leave patty mills and danny green wide open for 6 threes either..

    Capela is a freaking nightmare for opposing offensive players.

    Seems like Rockets as a team improved their 3 point shootng...I think Rockets and Warriors may be the best 3pt shooting teams in the NBA.

    Aldridge seriously looks like he's on Diaw's off season diet.
