    Do we have any more celebration confetti left over from the game tonight to sprinkle on this thread. Or did we use it all up?

    80 more games, there is one one home game versus CP3 and OKC and they go on the road trip.

    True, but the Clippers lost to the Suns.

    Sometimes, it be like that in the NBA. I remember that 73 win Warriors team lost to a bad Minny team near the end of the year.

    Sometimes you catch a bad team on the wrong night, apparently Ingram was working on his Durant costume last night, Rockets fortunate to get out of there with a W.

    Or Jrue Holiday...but I dig where he comin from. We know our Achilles is that occasional kitty kat harden likes to catch...it was good to see a completely different and surprisingly complimentary dynamic come to life w WB taking over and not allow that simp ish...

    This is the best takeaway from this game for me, I guess -- we have a true 2nd superstar that can turn it on and get to that superstart level when Bizarro Harden shows up. We were lucky Westbrook's FG and FT shooting were on tonight, though. I also like the acceleration in the offense when Westbrook decides it's "his turn". We'll see -- it's still early in the season.

    Westi takes a backseat to no one. He sensed Harden didn’t have it against the Bucks and last night and went into beast mode. This guy is balling like it’s the 2017 season all over again. You can tell he wants to let his doubters and this pairings doubters have it in spades.

    The dude is averaging 27 pts 13 boards 10 assists so far this season. Granted it’s game 2 but this is MVP level brodie

    Also it’s hard not to notice aside from WB lowkey/highkey being the teams natural leader we hoped CP3 would be for this team it also seems the team is more enthusiastic playing w WB controlling the ball...and honestly this is a pleasant surprise I saw as the best case scenario but I didn’t expect to see at the very least not this early.

    The chemistry and respect between Russell and James is evident, got us looking like the Houston Thunder out there, just need a KD lol
