    Nurk dominating his matchups with Adams and Capela on consecutive nights is something

    Yes. Meyers went at him and he didn't have shit to say until Meyers left.

    Good point. Rockets came back from 20 down in Oakland.

    If they didn't just throw him out for that tantrum at the end of the half, yeah they will likely give him about 7 make up calls to get them back into the game in the 3rd.

    I mean, if Iggy got tossed, Harden should too, right? That was legit the same exact thing.

    you know the refs dont believe in consistency.

    And Iggy's went a lot further and came a bit later

    I saw it. Probably told him he's not worth $10M/year.

    I love that run we went on. That was a thing of beauty.

    And yeah, I would have given that clown a Flagrant 2.

    Trying to track Blazers and watch football, Seahawks shot themselves in the foot twice in same drive with pass interference. Cowboys are Lakers of the NFL, hate them no matter who they play.

    He should, but it's the NBA. They enforce whatever rules they see fit whenever they feel like it depending on who the player is or what team he's on...

    Distance doesn't matter. It still landed in the stands and was not a basketball play. He asked for that ball knowing .3 you cant get a shot off, he meant to hurl it.

    But yeah, this just goes on the list of thousands that shows the double standard in this league.

    Overall good half and nice 2QT on the defense end. Balance scoring by the 1st unit and glad to see Zach putting the ball in the basket for 7 points off the bench. We collect 14 assist that half.

    Go Dallas. I'm a 9er fan, so I hate both of you, but Seattle is FAR more annoying.

    great half but I'm worried that Harden only had 3 FT's and was 0-8 from three....I hope that doesn't 'even out' with a little help from whistles

    Would be really nice to put this away for good in three so that Dame and Nurk can get some rest. These two have been working like crazy this week
