    James Harden shot something like 25 free throws tonight.... you don't think that's ridiculous?

    Lillard is struggling tonight. 3 turnovers in the first half. I'm guessing he won't have 3 in the second half.

    The Clippers have 2 turnovers, both on offensive violations. Griffin with a moving screen, and Barnes for hanging out of bounds.

    Amazing that they haven't had a ball stolen or thrown away.

    Its all about Paul right now. Dame needs to make a big impact in the second half.

    Well that was not how we wanted to end that quarter. That T by Palmer was pretty bullshit.

    I hate him so much when he plays against my W's, but hes incredible. The flopping is annoying but its kind of fun just to see how advanced he is mentally compared to his peers.

    Well, we're undefeated after the half, and it is the 3rd quarter. I feel good.

    Not too surprising. Blazers are one of the worst teams at forcing turnovers.

    Harden's always got to the foul line at high rate. He's like Ginobili in that any contact he acts as though he's been shot through a cannon. Chris Paul does the same thing. Its a learned behavior.

    And if they are a small market team playing against a big money maker team they probably have a good argument.

    In the regular season you don't play the same team 4-7 times in a row and the traveling is much different.

    Barkley is worthless as an analyst. Will somebody inform him basketball is about jump shooting.

    Agreed. I hate that it's a part of the game, but it's hard to blame the guy for playing the way they're calling it, and there's something to be said about being good at putting yourself in those positions in the first place.
