The difference between being a very good team and the best regular season team of all time is not letting the root beer barrel and company beat you at home. Second chance points was like 16-0 entering OT iirc This year's Warrior team is unequivocally worse than last year's and they were a Bogut injury away from keeping the gang together

I feel bad that NOP didn't get to see the best from Eric Gordon. Though now that he's on the Rockets I look forward to him and Harden fueding.

NickRoweFillea posted:I hope you and your dad have a good time. Thanks Nick! We had an awesome time. My takeaways: - Klay and Steph are trash - Everyone who lives basketball absolutely must see KD live at least once. Holy poo poo. Best player I've ever seen in person. - Harden didn't even seem to play well and then oh triple double - Every time I see Klay in person, my immediate impression is how overrated hid defense is. Dude was sleep walking for the first 3 possessions of the game and never recovered - Those two phantom fouls on Curry in the 2nd quarter really affected the game, but still Steph is trash On TNT did they show the little dancing kid who was hyping the crowd from courtside all game? Dude was hyped as gently caress all the way through 2OT even though it was 11pm by the end.

The warriors have gone from the 5th best defensive team in the league to the 21st. e: Also draymond if a loving weirdo mouth breather. Paul Zuvella fucked around with this message at 17:11 on Dec 2, 2016 |

It is like 1000x times more fun to be a Rockets fan this year than it was last year. When the team is clicking they can beat anyone in the NBA. In a similar vein, whenever they aren't clicking they can lose to any team in the NBA, so every game is an adventure! I'm still expecting the bottom to fall out when Anderson and Gordon inevitably get injured, but at least Dekker and Harrell look like they belong in an NBA team's rotation.

Scoring 30 shooting <40% from the field but getting >10 points from the line should be named "The Harden" at this point if it isn't already.

The Rockets are going to win 50 games with a bottom 5 defense. I can't remember the last time that happened. I guess the closest was the 14-15 Raptors.

Get some talent on your team and watch as they spend their entire contract battling with injuries only to leave and have immediate success on another team once they've healed up. Anderson, Gordon, CP3, Chandler, West. I'm sure when AD leaves us he'll become the MVP and immediately win a ring after playing all 82 games or some poo poo.

On the one hand, yeah. The refs are biased on the basis of reputation, good or bad, and Draymond has a bad one. On the other hand, stop hitting dicks and axe kicking people it's extremely easy to not do. I don't do it all day!

Also, I'm fairly impressed with Houston's start. Record aside, they've played one of the toughest SOS so far and most road games in the league, including the current lovely 8 day road trip of Sacramento, Portland, Utah, GSW, Denver.
