damn, chuck didn't even mention the rockets. he was just on the thunder gm's dong talking about how great a trade it was and how bad they robbed us.
Gotta say I'm not excited at all about tonight. I said after Dwight Howard was traded to the Lakers my NBA enthusiasm was diminished but the true test would be when this season actually started. I have almost no desire to watch any of the 3 games. Gonna listen to music, work out and wait for the Rockets tomorrow (although I can't watch it on TV) and probably OKC on Thursday.
The trendy thing is to say the Thunder "won" the trade. Just ridiculous. They lose a top 20 player at the age of 23 for a chucker with no defense and a player with good potential, but screams role player. We gave up a lot, but Harden to the Rockets was a great thing.
He is what he is. A solid role player. His talents are best shown with a guard like Rondo running the show so he can do what he does best.

When talking about the Celtics improvement he goes "Courtney Lee played really well for Orlando." no mention of Houston at all lol.
Pregame, RAllen went to the Celtics side hugged River and shook everyone's hand and hilarious to see KG turned and gave him the hold shoulder...lol
