    Nice shot, Aminu. In rhythm and under control.

    lol. I did say we were good, but I waited.

    I'm saying we're not as good, but I'm waiting.

    That is consistent. You are just uncomfortable with patience. That's not on me. That's on you.

    It's Houston. They have the human downer in James Harden. He might be the worst "star" and "leader" in the whole league... actually, no, I'll say that as fact.

    I'm not uncomfortable with patience. I've needed patience my whole career. I'm just holding you to your standard. That's all.

    He's just lazy. Everything about his game is lazy. On offense he tries to get the refs to give him free points. On defense, he just doesn't play.

    I hold myself to my standards. You just want to feel like you're right. That's not on me, that's on you.

    Aminu needs to work on his dribble drive.

    Being an MVP doesn't mean you're actually good for your team in it's totality. If Harden won the MVP, it would have tarnished the MVP.

    I'm so glad Harden caught the Kardasian curse

    Aminu has become the most frustrating for me. Only because he's shown both sides of the spectrum. The good side of the spectrum has created some expectation on my end.

    Howard was out most of the year and he carried his team to the 2 seed. I hate him too but you gotta give him SOME credit.

    Maybe it's the Blazers defense.

    Never will. He's a fraud. Look at him this year. He gave up on his team to get his coach fired.

    Didn't Raymond Felton start that shit with nate here?
