    Wow. Gordon inbounds to Tucker and Tucker doesn’t pick up the ball so Vonleh grabs the ball and puts it in. Unbelievable. Never seen a mind fart like that.

    Harden nearing 60. This is a great game. Tucker stupid. Can you imagine if that happened in a playoff game?

    Harden with game winning steal and dunk. 61 points.

    Harden must be the most difficult player to play with. 38 fucking shots and the refs give him 25 free throws.

    Bummer for Oladipo as he's likely gone for the season.

    Popovich's team couldn't even run a successful in bounds play at the end of the game. He must be a terrible coach :)

    Could be. We never really got a great view of it.

    But would make sense considering Victor's reaction. Knew it was bad right when he saw it.

    I mean, how do you not have one play during that time where an offensive rebound gets kicked out to him for an open shot or a hand off where he scores off one dribble?

    If Dame shot the ball every time he would at least get a few of those every game.

    I am both amazed by how much Harden scores and sickened by how selfish of a player he is and how the refs bail that dude out more than anyone in the history of basketball.

    It amazes me how they never have him run off of curls to free him up. It would seem so much easier than his one on one Brandon Roy-eque style. But shit, it works.

    Nuggets players including Murray and Jokic will probably be suspended

    If you missed it... Up 6, PJ Tucker stupidly fouls Trier on a 3. Trier makes 3 Fts and then Tucker did this....
