We dropped to 6 and 7th on NBA.com and BKR respectively for those claiming we still top 5

 

Probably not he would have taken minutes from other players and he probably not been nearly as effective. They would have had a lot less 3's made. We would have beat them by more

 

Newsflash, buddy- it’s called a forum. All of us comment on other’s posts. You made a post I didn’t agree with, and like the 1,000s of other examples on this site, I commented on it. So, we’re all police if you’re going to call it that.

 

Actually, you are a bit wrong. There were numerous times we played tough D and they hit ridiculous shots. They weren’t at their best, but they were not as bad as you say , either- and I watched the game twice.

 

The Pelicans have some real interesting team thinking to do. They seem better/as good without AD. Cousins seems to be out-performing AD by the eye test - though AD still has higher PER. Cousins is also available. AD is always in and out.

And most of all, AD would theoretically return a "haul". Not sure what exactly , but a haul.
Could you get Jaylen Brown, Tatum and a pick?
Could you get Avery Bradley AND Tobias Harris?

Bigger question... was last night an outlier or will the guards always play better when only one of the two is on the court? Seems likely the later would be true Justin because of the rules and the way the nba is these days.

Anyway relative to the Rockets...

Damn Home vs Away Anderson just won’t stop.

Rockets will get the 1 or 2 seed which might not be helpful lol.

 

Oh go jump off a damn freeway somewhere. We'r still a top 10 defensive team how about that. And next time be man or woman enough to address the person (me) that said it.

 

so it only took you 2 years to realize the folly of your double lol

 

Don’t flatter yourself big mouth, wasn’t just you.

 

It was a good feeling seeing CP3 mounting this comeback, and knowing Harden was just waiting patiently to get in.... and put it away for us.

 

This gif never gets old. Just brilliant!

 

I think i found the key to beating the Rockets. All you gotta do is not miss a single shot all game

i dont know, man
maybe if alot of those shot are threes with and ones...

 

went and watched the game again,
i swear i saw trevor walking around and smiling, with 6 or 7 down in last 5-6 minutes, just like in blazers game. i think he knows something, maybe from another timeline

 

Joe Chee getting ready to play in another usual boring rockets win

 

We all need to pump the breaks a bit on this. Let’s be very, very clear..... We are DOMINATING right now, and DM the GM and Krispy Kringles have talked about Troy, both agree you leave well enough alone.

We probably lose Trevor and/or Luc next year, and Troy will be there to step in, but this year, we are rolling downhill, so no reason to change course.
