    Capela with perhaps his best career dunk.

    One dribble, then smash. Looked good.

    I agree but the stats says he's shooting 34% from downtown

    How do you know if players are chuckers? The moment they get an opportunity to stop moving the ball they chuck chuck

    We need to start moving the ball and/or taking some good shots again.

    harden killing us.

    our team is so ****ing stupid. no one ever thinks about shot selection when things are going poorly. we're playing like crap and harden takes a hesitation jumper after butler doesn't go for the pump fake and barely gets rim and then gordon forces up a 3 after jones doesn't go for the pump fake with our lead already down to 13. and of course it goes right to 11 on the next possession. how about take a cue from the flow of the game and say maybe we should work a possession here. no, just throw up a well-covered shot.

    this team plays like it's the warriors. you can blow a 19 point 4th quarter lead. you blew a 26 point lead because you didn't care. now you've come out in the 4th not moving on defense, throwing careless passes and forcing low-quality shots because you don't wanna move and cut and dribble with a purpose. pathetic. so infuriating how they can't be professionals and recognize their patterns of screwing up and actually care about fixing them.

    Harden looks terrible. No reason he should be playing.

    More like he is rushing himself back.

    But yeah, he looks like he is playing wearing a Clutch the Bear suit. Which is saying a lot for him.

    Please take Harden out, he is not playing up to par. I understand he is rusty but do the small things and just stop standing and watching move your feet and box out at least. On the defensive it is like 5 against 4.

    you can feel this team getting tight. they have no idea what to do when they blow a lead halfway. they try to play prevent offense for 10 minutes to finish a game.
