    We’re going to smoke the Lakers.

    This team was bricking shots and layups left and right.

    Capela will play much better which will open up everything else. I also think we get a huge game from Harden. He always balls out against lebron.

    Melo will score 15+ and hit 3 threes.

    Cp3 will be cp3.

    117-107 rockets.

    Huge win. Harden is still in MVP mode.

    Still need a lot of work on communication and developing offensive rhythm. Capela looks kinda soft out there, seems to have developed an ego that wasn't there a couple seasons ago. The way he jogs up the court and just his body language in general is looking weak right now.

    That said, the team's passion was clearly there tonight. James, Chris, and PJ look really hungry. Carmelo has impressed me with his overall effort and body language. He is a better rebounder and defender (so far) than I expected.

    Feeling much, much more optimistic now than I was after game 1.

    We are small , we are slow , we aren't that great a shooting team , but we are tough when we come to play for real .

    Once capela gets back into the groove , our defense will look a lot better .

    Ennis looked great in the preseason because there is no pressure . I think he can calm down and play at that level ... just needs to calm down .

    James is back in the flow

    Pj never left it , he just needed someone to fight with him .

    Melo needs to eventually adjust to coming off the bench

    And hopefully Gordon will make a 3 sometime this month

    Hopefully tomorrow tells us even more about the team and we get to see some fresh faces play . Let's not run this 7 man **** in game 3

    Bumping the meme*

    Sry needed a laugh after last night. Can’t believe no one mentioned House in this thread, or that — who knows? — Harden might score 41.1 ppg in a 32 game span.

    * original title b4 OP edited it was “Game 2 will tell us everything we need to know about the season”

    We are small , we are slow , we aren't that great a shooting team , but we are tough when we come to play for real .

    Once Jabari gets back into the groove , our defense will look a lot better .

    Jalen looked great in the preseason because there is no pressure . I think he can calm down and play at that level ... just needs to calm down .

    Fred is back in the flow

    Alpe never left it , he just needed someone to fight with him .

    Dillon needs to eventually adjust to coming off the bench

    And hopefully Reed will make a 3 sometime this month

    Hopefully tomorrow tells us even more about the team and we get to see some fresh faces play . Let's not run this AAU offense **** in game 3
