    Both these teams look like they are playing in slow motion

    We got this game in the bag. Play some defense and it's over

    On Harden's three...just watched Dwight start running back to the other end as Harden put up the shot. This guy is LAZY.

    I don't like that Jones gets more shots than Dwight

    Dwight looks like he's ready for this game to be over

    They should have know what they were getting with Thorton. He is a shooter. When you need that play him. He's never been know to pass that often.

    Ah ok, it just seems recently the past couple weeks he hasn't been playing that much. I know earlier in the season he played a solid number of minutes, 20 to 25

    Agree..just keep him on the bench...he doesn't want to be out there.

    You'd bet your life on it?! JB is just being loyal to Brewer, a long-time friend since Brewer was drafted by McHale in Minnesota and JB was an assistant. There is no objective reason to keep Marcus Thornton out of this rotation. He's by far our 2nd best scorer and #1 shooter in a 3pt driven offense. His defense is not worse than Brewers (this season) or Jason Terry's. He hustles every game unlike the rest of the team. He's an excellent lob passer to Dwight and Clint. Thornton is exactly what we needed off the bench. Play the man. I can't wait until Brewer is traded.

    Not for long stretches, but the starters have to come out at some point.


    If we could get Anderson off the Pels, that lineup could be even more deadly.

    Harden always does that **** makes a 3 and his next shot is a 3. For a guy who's very average at 3s he shoots WAY to many. His game is most definitely different this year than years past
