    Carlisle:

    Think about Harden and his OKC days, did you envision him turning into the player he is now?

    Yes.

    What makes him hard to defend?

    Ball skill are phenomenal. He's a PG skill wise playing the...his size is more like a 3 than 2. He's 6'5, long strides and jumps, best I've ever seen in this league at getting fouled. Deceptive moves in transition, hard to take charges on, so many things. You gotta get him to play halfcourt. Even when you do that it's challenging. He's such a great one on one and PnR player. The West is all about challenges. We'll have to deal with it.

    More help to whoever is guarding him or one guy just has to do the best he can?

    You gotta have help. I don't care who it is on defense. One man can't do it. You gotta have 5 guys geared to him. Make him get rid of it. He's the beginning of the problem in many cases. You're gonna be doing a lot of scrambling in a game like tonight, better have our scramble shoes on.

    Not a huge difference in the splits on 1,2 or 3 days rest this season. Obviously his most notable drop off is on the 0 days off, but even those numbers are still close to the rest. That consistent night to night production is why he is in the lead or just off of the MVP.

    Last year and the year before his numbers were noticeably better on 3 days rest. Dude just keeps getting better.

    McDaniels has some nerve taking Cisco's jersey number.

    More the half the board will be longing for Cuban. That half of the board disgusts me.

    Please use common sense McHale and put Harden on Parsons on the defensive end.

    You know, chasing around Ellis each possession drains a fair bit of energy as opposed to just standing at the 3 point line for 80% of the time while Chandler stands there.

    I'm not nervous myself, just already mad at all the ****ty calls that will go in the Mavs favor because Cuban threw a public temper tantrum a decade ago.

    Harden goes for 50 and sets the tone for the 2nd half championship run
