    Lol at all the clowns who wanted to trade Beard in the offseason. Guy is a top 3 or 4 player and might be the most gifted offensive player in the game. Yea trade that bum ......

    I wasn't able to watch any of the game. Why do Porzingis do so poorly? Who was guarding him and how did we stop him?

    seems he's been iso by his teammates especially Rose and Melo. he has Few touches in this game and IMO should be the team's 1st option not Melo.

    Smile on the face of Harden and Harrell after Harrell's dunk in the forth Q was beautiful just sums up the game

    What rocket_ph said.
    The Knicks are just ill conceived. Porzingis is the 3rd option. Sucks for him.

    Carmelo Anthony is the epitome of worst contracts in Sports History. He's a loser that is over hyped and has nothing to offer.

    Wow Harden is balling his butt off. Dude is something special and I'm glade he's a Houston Rockets.

    Coach has to find some minutes for Harrell. Love his energy on both ends of the court.

    Finally we have a two guard who can score the basketball. Great pick up Morey. Hopefully Gordon stays healthy.

    Anderson had a very solid game.

    Good win for the good guys.

    3 or 4? right now he is clearly top 3. Lebron, Harden and Westbrook are the best 3 right now.

    Carmelo is getting a load of the blame however Rose set the tone with driving to the basket and not looking for ANYONE .

    Brewer has had two solid back to back performances too. Ennis still makes me cringe whenever I see him on the court .

    Corey Brewer was amazing defensively last night. If we can get that effort from him and KJ every night we will be hard to beat.

    Klay Thompson >>>> James Harden......

    I for one was wondering why Harrell didn't play in the Cleveland game when our bigs were resting. It was good to see him finally get some time, which I hope we see more of. He just brings so much more strength at the rim than the 3 guard combo he was using with bench players and Gordon. Dekker took a nasty fall, and I hope he doesn't wake up today with a seized up back. That was scary, considering he has had back surgery. Wow, Harden is on fire this year. I love the way he is playing with the new coach. No more standing around dribbling for 10 seconds every time he gets the ball. He had some brilliant passes last night and his 3 pt shot is looking better.

    Nobody wants to trade him for nothing, or for lesser players.

    But this team needs good Defense too, to go all the way. That is all.

    After watching these games, gotta say Gordon is a perfit fit to play alongside Harden and in our system.

    He gets lots of bad calls on the defensive end, does he has a bad reputatuon on defense that refs would think "thats gotta be a foul?"

    As the season goes, and we submit more and more tape of refs blowing calls on Gordon, it will get better.

    I was talking about when Nene and Capela were on the bench in the Cleveland game and we had 3 guards in who weren't doing much defensively.
