    All this proves is that Brian Scalabrine is dumb as a stump and shouldn't be taken seriously when it comes to matters of the NBA. Not sure why the OP decided to give this guy exposure...man crush maybe? Who knows.

    Clutchfans care, they care a lot. Not sure if you been following all the other threads on ****ing Max Kellerman lol. Suddenly we also love Chris Broussard because he is on the Harden bandwagon. Lol.

    People can have their opinions. It doesn't bother me. It will all be decided in the playoffs.

    That's fine, Houston doesn't get respect unless it violently takes it from the media #mediaconspiracy. Here's to hoping for a great playoff run to prove to everybody that the Rockets are for real. Honestly, they're already doing it - you can hear it from all the talking heads.

    On a related note, the Rockets themselves always say that they have a long way to go and that they "are not there yet", and "can get better". I love that mindset and can't help but think that CP3 brought that with him.

    We now care about what former bench players think?

    As I said before, you guys Want negative views
    You are clearly searching for this cause nobody cares about him.

    Who’s next ? Do you hunt the internet for what G league players think?

    I’m not part of this insecure Rocket fan movement
    I’m part of the 99ers

    As a Celtics fan, this is annoying. It stinks of intellectual laziness or worse, saying something for the sake of publicity. Why, Brian, why? Is this a 1986 thing?

    Too bad the Thunder might not even meet Houston in the Playoffs. 'Cause after a broken down Melo, george, and Westbrook.... their bench definitely don't look like they are built for the playoffs. We're fighting for first seed in the playoffs, Thunder are struggling to even be in the playoffs. Built for the playoffs but not built to win enough season games to be consistently in the playoffs... sounds like a sour Boston Cream puff...

    you can make the argument they have a better starting 5, but the fact the rockets are so deep puts them above OKC IMO

    i dunno brehs, white mamba does have a point. plus he's been an analyst since his rookie season, getting front row seats every single game from the bench. he clearly knows his stuff.

    In February, Warriors are no longer a top 10 team. They look like lottery-bound team.

    It seems that nobody highly respects Rockets.

    looking like lottery-bound team Warriors still believe they can defeat Rockets. How February top 10 teams?

    Yeah, but won't it feel good when we win the whole damn thing? It's not like we're pulling for the Pittsburgh Pirates over here, but it sure feels that way at times.

    The same 2 teams have made it to the finals 3 years in a row, so whatever past standard the media is using to judge the Rockets on, every other team has failed to live up to it as well.

    I mean Harden has been in the Western conference finals in the last 3 years and has a finals appearance to boot. Last year sucked. But continuing with the theme of things that completely don’t matter, the Rockets just finished easily dismissing Westbrook and the thunder in the first round.

    So yeah anything can happen, but the rockets have the current best record in the NBA and the 3 seed is 10 games behind so talking **** about them makes you look pretty ****ing stupid.

    The people dismissing scalabrine because he was a bench player on being lame.

    Scalabrine is a star of nba radio and the co host of the starting lineup.

    His opinion being posted in clutchfans is not exposure for him lol
