    Austin Rivers is a god send. EGo is an integral part of this team, but there is no way you take Rivers out of that bench lineup (that included BK and Gary) and insert Ego, would that group been as effective.

    Harden got rest.

    They want to win. Harden is not concerned with the streak, you can tell by the way he is playing. He's playing smart not forcing his shots.

    Ennis ****, bro.

    This is a game where our main guys need to play 5-10mins less. Why Harden is out there back in at 9:17, up 14 is beyond me. Give him 8-9mins off this qtr.

    PJ back in at 10min mark, for what? To suck? This is when BK and Clark can get some time.

    If YOU were on a record setting pace for 35+ pt games in a row, would YOU want to
    sit the bench in a scrub game and break your streak? NOT

    I know you're being funny, but harden got 3 minutes extra rest so far. Don't know how long that will last because Grizz will come back.

    I like Clark's energy on defense. If he improves his shot, Ennis will be a DNP-CD soon.

    because MDA is coach of the year. D'Antoni doesn't need to be called out

    Man what a difference of a bench. Couple months ago without Cp3 and Ennis and Nene we would be super thin. We didn’t have Clark and house I think. Now our bench looks decent and keeps or increases the lead.
