Hypothetically, would you be willing to trade for James Harden if we don't have to give up Dame?

    LMAO Candace Owens, Greg Anthony, Grant Hill and this other guy for being so bad at sharing the ball for the past 5 years.

    They're indirectly calling out the coaching.

    I’m enjoying a great win by the team, especially GTJ’s contribution. Yah the same GTJ that your coach decided was not good enough to play meaningful minutes in the last two god awful games.

    Everyone thought the Lakers drastically improved by adding Schroeder, Harrell and Gasol but they lost A LOT on defense with Rondo, Howard and McGee leaving. Gasol just doesn’t have the foot speed anymore and didn’t play late in games for the Raptors in the playoffs. Harrell gets abused on defense and might be actually worst than Kanter.

    I guess all of the analysts who said we had a great off season and the deepest team in the league don't seem as dumb as people that thought the sky was falling after one game.

    Did our lead get smaller or bigger after that substitution? Did it lead to a win or loss?

    Our bench had 45 points tonight. We out rebound by 6 and we had 27 assist. We only gave up 10 thees tonight. Defense was better all round and Davis wasn't not factor in this game. James got his but we made him work for them that's all you can do.

    Yeah, 3-18 overall. Covington I think will be better. But I do like what Jones is bringing. The block on LBJ was fun to watch.
    Hood looks better each game so hopefully, that will help the bench.
    Trent of course was great.

    DJJ and Covington being able to switch AD/LBJ pnr is huge

    If only anyone on the NBA TV team thought so.

    Unfortunately for you, they don't.

    I hope you're getting paid well.

    We keep winning in spite of Terry’s terrible coaching. What I was impressed with was the defense, especially the active hands by our guards and forwards.





    Oh wait, didn't Terry implement a new defense for just this kind of behavior? Ummm. Yeah, Terry still sucks at everything always.




    Am I doing this whining thing correctly?
