    I can't wait to get this season started. Hopefully all these China threads will be on the back burner to some real game talk. I'm looking forward to a much more competitive league all around. It should make for a lot more nail biting games and hopefully, a lot of good things to say about our team this year. Go Rockets!
    Boo Lakers!

    I can't say I've ever been a Westbrook fan but he does allow us to play at 2 different speeds. Teams can't just set up anymore for a Harden or Paul ISO. They now have guy that will play at 100 mph to contend with. Even if Westbrook isn't all that efficient, I think he will wear down teams for Harden to be more efficient at the end of games.

    Russ’s first monster dunk I hated his game but damn do his dunks energize fans.

    who’s the last monster dunker? T-Mac?

    Harden's floater is his best ever, so far.

    Loving WB's immediate chemistry with Capela, too

    I'm looking forward to more transition points and the overall faster pace.

    And Harden.

    Interested to see Capela's progression. Also hope the best for Hartenstein.

    I think the Westbrook experiment will be declared a winner or loser by the first half of the season. So that will be fun to watch.

    I hope that House continues to play hard and progress.

    I'm ready for Gary Clark to show the world he's on Rudy Gay's level.

    I'm looking forward to Jaron Blossomgame and the return of Anthony Bennett after he comes back from injury.

    i am the most excited to play the lakers, clippers, and kicking the warriors ass....

    I hope that the gamble on russ pays off and he brings us to the promised land!

    I think that chris clemons is going to be in the eight man rotation by years end, ahead of green and maybe even rivers.

    I am hoping that harden will learn how to play off of the ball when russ is in the game and let him do his thing.

    i think we are one role player away from being a true contender, morey needs to pull something out of his ass again.

    Harden.

    All the media have already decided to crown AD as MVP.
    I look forward for Harden to shut them up.

    I don't know much about Clemons, but you make me hopeful by saying that. As for Russ and Harden, I agree.

    You crack me up Williamson. I see you are a Blossomgame only fan now. I'm gonna keep an eye on him and Bennet since you seem to like them. I don't know much about them.

    Capela is about to average 50 points with how Harden and Westbrook will feed him.
