    Thats the problem. AD iso. LeBron iso. They have two guys that can explode for 40. This series is gonna be a shootout but I'll take that over Dort canceling out Harden all series.

    Harden has to give everything on offense, then he has to guard Anthony Davis.

    Something has to give. Good TO by MDA.

    We're getting good looks, keep at it don't panic. Defensively Harden is doing as well as anybody could do in those situation against Davis. If he's taking jumpshots instead of going to the rim, its a win for us.

    I'd like to see us make a few of those 2nd chance 3pt attempts we've had on offensive rebounds.

    Rondo and Alex “I wear my jersey to the bar” Caruso are playing pretty lights out in the first half. I like how things are going, you don’t expect them to continue that all game (and series)

    Harden guarding Davis might not be worth the expended energy if Harden can't keep him from getting the shots he wants.

    I am not worried about Davis' jump shot. He will fade away in the 4th quarter.

    The "wow James Harden made a play.....on DEEFENSE?!??!???" routine is starting to rival 'HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM" on the hackneyedbullshittery scale.

    Gordon: James you are shooting well tonight. Great, I don't have to then.
