    Yeah, Shaw is terribad... However, they need to get rid of McGee and Hickson ASAP. The sooner they do that the better they become.

    Are we rooting for Houston or OKC?

    I just have this bad feeling these OKC injuries are helping them. Their supporting players are getting lots of court time to grow and improve. When Durant and Westbrook come back, they'll make some big surge to get a top 3 seed and then win the championship. None of these OKC losses mean anything because they'll be healthy for the playoffs. I guess that's why I should root for Houston too. Ugh. I hate them.

    Houston but I wish they both could lose. I want as much spread from OKC before Durant and Westbrook get back. We need at least a 10 game lead, and even then, I will be worried

    Yeah their bench is learning to win without Westbrook and Durant. They will get much better when the dynamic duo comes back

    I want to see a 7OT game where the Rockets win but Harden suffers a devastating injury to his beard.

    I'm sorry, I'm rooting for OKC too. Houston thinks they're good. They need a beat down. I don't want to hear them hyped up as contenders.

    68-65 with only 37 seconds left in the game! Worst scoring game I've ever seen. Houston sucks.

    Houston only scored 9 points in the third and they're going to win.

    No one scored 70. When is the last time this happened?

    Yeah, Reggie Jackson and Steven Adams are developing well for them.

    I have a preferable alternate scenario: Assuming Westbrick comes back first, he will want to assert himself as 'the man', but rust makes him shoot more bricks than usual. Enter Durant, who is resented by an insecure Westbrick, starting a who-gets-the-ball feud that destroys team chemistry and the team fucking implodes.

    Durant demands trade, gets traded to the wizards for otto porter, Bradley Beal and a 1st round pick.
