    Harden 6-9 from 3, 11-13 FT

    Rest of the team 2-19 from 3, 20-37 from FT. Any game where we shoot that poorly and win is a good one.

    we are worrying about a draft pick that Morey will probably trade away

    i couldn't really care about the pick, i'd trade it for another good player that we need

    And what pick will they get if they do make the play offs?

    It will not be the 15th pick. Hence it is more than one pick.

    I actually think he was trying to help the Thunder by letting Westbrook get that last shot off. Remember they were out of timeouts and it would've been less than 2 seconds when he got to the free throw line.

    Ayup.

    Hopefully this means the rest of the team will regress to the mean on Wednesday against the Spurs.

    Lol. I know you are being sarcastic. At least I hope so.

    You ate playing a desperate team on their home court. Short handed or not, they will give their all.

    Just be happy with a most important win. If we split the two games with San Antonio, and take care of business, the 2nd seed will be ours, with a more favorable path towards the WC finals.

    Just say you understand you were wrong and we do not have to talk about the pick.

    That was scary. Praise be to Beard.

    Also, thanks Josh Smith for giving me a heart attack with that 3/4 court pass to Ariza under pressure.

    Yep, exactly what I'm saying.

    How great is it to have this level of Howard back?!

    If that is what that person is saying, they are mistaken.

    If the pelicans miss the playoffs it is the last lottery pick. If they make the playoffs, because of all the bad eastern conference teams that will make the playoffs, it will certainly not be the first few non-lottery picks. And, because of the way the protection is slated -- if the Pelicans make the playoffs, we probably won't receive the pick.

    Seven of those free throws could have been Harden's if he didn't foul out at the end.

    and JET was waiting for the ball 2 feet away with the bench yelling at josh to pass to JET.

    Josh always trying to go for the most spectacular play gets him in troubke. Thankfully it didn't bite the rockets in the ass.

    He played terribly. He had a negative impact on the game. Did you even watch the game?

    He was lost out in all aspects of his game. He played like a third string pg.
