    This game means absolutely nothing. Lakers have looked like garbage and I guarantee you they are not going to be an easy out.Previous Cavs teams have also looked like garbage going into the playoffs. You gotta chill man, these games havent mattered for awhile.

    I really don’t think they care too much on the defensive end tonight. Offensively is what worries me. 5-21 from 3, i think?

    Playing like this won't beat the Thunders.

    Embarrassed.

    MDA said that Harden wanted to play with EG. MDa has a tough time saying no to Harden. They aren't supposed to play in the second half.

    the first couple minutes was okay.

    I hate midget ball. Get rid of russ and get a real lineup. Trade westbrick to the knicks maybe thibs would like to have another Derrick rose type of pg. we could a bunch of young players in return mainly frank nkitilna, Mitchell Robinson, Kevin Knox and some future first rounders. James Dolan would do it I bet

    What point is it to build on bad habits before going into the playoffs in 4 days?

    We don't care about this game whatsoever. Harden does not care about this game at all.

    we have to run this stupid lineup because of westbrick never learned how to play traditional basketball. Okc fans used to say fire billy Donovan because he never ran plays with russ. Now he has an actual pg and he is in the running for coty

    All we need now is for harden to sprain his wrist on a drive.

    The main concern is the inconsistent shooting from the 3pt line. There's literally no point of us playing this small ball lineup if we can't even hit a 3pt shot. Our 3pt shooting has actually got worse as the bubble as gone on. Big concern so far!

    Rockets seem to be like a middle the road team who are lead by one of the best scorers in the game.. Thats about it, reminds me a whole lot of sixers with AI, but broke down, and wont ever get a chance like AI did with a chance to be in the finals.

    Next season, i just want to see some young faces. 2nd rounders who are looking to showcase themselves. A better rotation that plays atleast 10 guys. Our assets have been all plundered just to build this team that we have right now. Just wanna see Harden get his chip so badly
