    I'd be ok with that. Dont think any other player is more deserving over Harden than Kawhi

    If MDA does his usual routine in the playoffs trimming the roster then I doubt Dekker gets minutes

    I'm watching the replay since I missed the live airing.

    How many easy and/or open lay ups did we miss? Holy crap. I need a real counting of how many easy points we didn't convert on. It has to be easily 5, right?

    I was at the game and that was infuriating. So many blown lay ups and missed free throws... Like c'mon man!

    My absolute favorite thing about game day threads is watching @PeterKingX tuck his tail and stop posting once the Rockets win or even start playing well. It never gets old.

    Great win tonight. I still had faith even tho we were down 14 at one point. Wasn't able to watch it live since I was working, but currently watching my recording.

    I want you to know I watched the ESPN broadcast but am currently watching the Root replay just to see how disappointing it is. Will report back.

    I'm on record accusing Harden of not playing well in "statement games". This was the definition of a "statement game" and he played great.

    Harden has 3 more "statement games" left this season (2 GSW, 1 OKC).

    Did we have less than 10 TO? Totally awesome!

    Another shocking +/- for Harden in the Cleveland game.

    He played 40 of 48 minutes
    • Harden was +23 for 40 minutes
    • Rockets were -18 in the 8 minutes he sat

    Bench +/- is wonky because Lebron plays with the second unit. Lebron constantly feasting on the scrub lineups.

    You're right. Lebron played for the first 17 1/2 minutes of the game. Harden sat to start the 2nd. So, LJ played 5 1/2 without Harden, and again 1 1/2 minutes to start the 4th without Harden, until MDA brought JH back in early to match up.

    So, LJ played 7 minutes total w/o Harden on the court, out of Harden's 8 rest minutes. CLE was a +12 in those 7 minutes of Lebron in/Harden out.

    CLE was only a +4 for those 5 1/2 minutes in the 2nd Q. They actually went on an 11-3 run (in like 2 minutes) between the time Lebron sat in the 2nd and Harden returned. But they were +8 in the 90 seconds to start the 4th with Lebron in and Harden out.

    What an incredible win, Harden was amazing.

    Kevin Love didn't play though so that could or could not have affected the game. I say we get better until next time, and beat their full team?

    In retrospect, Bev's big 3 was the Kiss of Death. Props to whoever called it during the game (I think it was HP).

    What a game, guys. If every game was like this, we would all need pacemakers, eventually.:)
