I didnt watch a lot of the 4th quarter until the very end when i saw they were coming back. Trying to see what my fantasy stuff was doing in football. If that is the case it probably is so. If Durant and Kyrie are there and he can save some of that energy they will probably be almost unbeatable. It's funny how many games those 3 have actually played together in almost 1 1/2 seasons.
Seemed pretty clear he got tired after the first half. Not really surprising after 15 days in the protocols
i am not even watching harden but nets are first in the east... perhaps hes doing what lebron has done for the entirety of the last decade, coasting in the Leastern conference until postseason? hes won all RS accolades, nothing for him to prove in RS, seems reasonable to just focus on staying healthy for the postseason
Lebron waiting on the NBA to step in to get him his 5th ring what a crying shame. Got guys like Harden wanting the league to step in just to get him one. Lebron outta be thankful.
ah if only Stephen Silas were available! they should have never let offensive genius go in the first place...and he could be had on the cheap....
They drastically changed the rules on him but surprisingly made a compromise on a few of his old tricks. Harden is one of the best playmakers in the history of the game. Maybe top 3 of all time based on the eye test. This makes opposing defenses back off of him allowing him to go to work.
Its a good point but probably a very bad move for someone who basically makes his money from the regular season... Maybe he is hoping Durant and Irving carry him hard in the playoffs and if he can somehow manage to sink a couple of big three's the stigma goes away....
Aside from Bjelica, Porter Jr, GP II and Kuminga? The first three are all making huge contributions and even Kuminga is starting to contribute some good minutes. This isn't the same roster--they cleaned out players who didn't fit offensively (Oubre, Bazemore) and replaced them with players who do. And found a new, super athletic Pat Bev in GP II.
why so literal....cmon they replaced a few of nobodys with another set of nobodys and now they best team in nba and couldnt even make playoffs without these? if so thats even more of anti tank argument than what i made and nice job of hyping up payton II...nobody wanted this guy....surely not the rockets...... if silas had him i am sure youd want him traded or crying for more talent.....bjelica was an nba bust, or ryan anderson at best, and almost run out of league...porter a hugely overpaid mediocre player.....(is he really that better than oubre?) its just goes to show its more important how you use people than they reputation.... give silas these boys and hed have them beat the record his father set..... and these 3 transformed warriors from 10 seed to the best team in NBA...lololololol
highlights look ok to me... hes probably just not into competing in RS or even in the playoffs so much...its ok its a glorified WWE anyway
They replaced players who didn't fit with players who did, bottom line. Kind of the classic version of roster building. It's not all about stars added.
its quite possible but imho its only your post defacto rationalization if they sucked youd be saying well of course they only replaced scrubs with scrubs, no star power added...hahahhahahah its basically the same roster so of course actually i like it, it means we replace only 3 role players say nwaba, thesis and daishen nix with 3 others 'that fit' and we wining it all next year
