    Imagine we had Corey Brewer Instead of Ronnie Brewer on our team. Automatic Contenders straight up.

    This works when we play Minnesota....

    We don't win more than 30 games without Harden. So stop all that talk about his iso ball. When you have a legit all-star you put the ball in his hands to score and make plays. Been happening since the NBA has been around so get used to it. He is still learning how to be 'that' guy.

    It would have been a different game for sure, but that doesn't mean it would have been a loss. A healthy Harden on the court is a win.

    Yeah, he tonight just goes to show how McHale will never use AB. Explain your lack of intellect please.

    Anybody notice when Harden plays the only thing we see are Harden Isos but without him team ball. Wonder why we can't play like this when he's on the court?

    I think the team should just allow Lin 4 TOs per game and let him play through it. Pull him when he's low turnover and leave him in when its high turnover cause we usually win.

    Brooks can't start. Beverley is a better fit for Harden.
    We need brooks coming off the bench and being that 6th man.

    He islightning quick. He cant be stopped. He is much better at getting to the rim.He dosent draw the fouls those two can, but he finds the gaps and moves into them better. Those two are more open court players. AB is great at finding gaps on set plays.

    I agree. We need to find minutes for him. He has been playing great. I like 4 guard rotation of PB, AB, Lin and JH. As long as AB and JH are not on the court together we should be fine :cool:

    This is only one game. Lin has shown several times that he can carry this team by himself as the #2 option without Harden. The jury is out on whether AB can still do that.

    Seriously? With Harden last year the team only won what 3 more games? This team without Harden can easily win 30+ games.....
