    I noticed this last well. Less penetrating, more settling for 3s

    We don't want that

    With Harden and Ryan out there you're going to need rim protection. Nene is a solid signing but I see Capela as the better fit when we start playing for real.

    Harden looks b2b like, jet lag I guess, but this is what we're going to see at the b2bs, lot of turnovers, 120 points recieved...

    Transition D, p&r D, must improve no matter our personnel is.

    Just noticed Harden changed shoes at half time. Started with red and yellow, now wearing black

    I wouldn't mind seeing Ariza gone for Gay. At least KJ looked great this game.

    What is that supposed to mean? I don't see any chemistry issues. If anything this is the closest team since the early Adelman era teams

    This is just speculation on my part. Ariza just looks out of it today and I'm wondering if its BC he's had to cover other ppls players on d. I love Ariza, don't get me wrong.

    I think we should play the rest of the preseason without Harden. I feel like the most important factor this season is how we do without him on the floor. We can't just be treating Anderson like Michael Jordan when Harden isn't on the floor, that's not an effective offense.

    Harrell getting pushed by Hield, slow on getting back, just looks like a guy who doesnt want to play

    That play right there, where Harden fired the pass to Anderson to hit three out of the corner, has to give some hope. Anderson had a defender pretty close and got the shot off very quickly.

    Harden could easily lead the league in assists this year
