    cant help but speculate that this might be due to capela growing up in switzerland and that type of interchange is a very much similar to a lot"triangle" passing combinations in soccer.

    that's what this play reminds me of.

    The reason More wanted Harden is he felt back then he was second best in pic and rolls next to Paul and he believes the pick and roll is the best play in the NBA

    This CP pass play and EG's straight up block of Booker's jump shot had me out of my seat. Oh man! What a game!

    That play had me going, "Whoa! The Genie is out of his bottle!" Chris improvises in such a beautiful way. He makes it look so easy. I'm really getting excited now. All I want is luck with the "i" word. Given that (and is it asking too much, basketball gods? Haven't we paid enough dues?), at the end of the season no one is going to want to face us in the playoffs, and that includes the Warriors, in my humble opinion. This may be the best team we've had since Yao went down in the series against the Lakers.

    I want Paul to handle the ball more and more especially when it comes to bringing it up the court as the season progresses.

    That will save us 4 or 5 silly turnovers that Harden makes with his lazy and boneheaded passed at times and also keep him fresh.

    Our ball handling and decision making late in games has been suspect in past seasons and this is where having a guy like CP helps the most.

    Oh yes, Capela will learn to think dunk it home (all the time) while rolling to the rim; esp when
    CP3 is on the court.

    Should add about 5 more points to Capelas points/avg per game

    Capela will need to buy a boat by seasons end......to hold all that money. A boat-load of money.

    Paul was so efficient last night.

    21 minutes / 10 assists / 1 turnover

    how he invented an assist out of nowhere?

    also love that harden was so far back getting ready for defense that he wasn't even in the screen :Do_O
