    I dogged Harden early, but an amazing 4th quarter he played.

    How about the bench help? Rivers and Green were huge.

    Hopefully, Paul just had one of those nights. He couldn't throw it in the ocean. But his decision making in the 3rd was great. Paul will never be a true score first guy like Harden will never be a true pass-first guy. Both guys are what they are. It's up to the coaching staff to put them in positions to be successful. If a coach doesn't know how to do that, by managing rotations and highlighting points of emphasis, then why even have a coach?

    Let me get this straight:
    • Harden struggled with his shot
    • CP3 hit one shot
    • We didn’t have Faried, Shumpert or House
    • We played the Raptors
    • ...at their place
    • And we won by 12?

    Damn this team is hot!

    We are in perfect position to have the 2nd or 3rd seed now and all that talk will go away. The only thing that matters is staying healthy and playing our game

    Good to know Rox can turn on the D whenever they feel like it.

    We’re going to see many more games like this. Our improving D and shooting are going to have us up 20 by halftime a lot. Teams get desperate in the 3rd and make a comeback but can’t sustain it for 24 minutes. We’ll keep on keepin on and win by 10.
