    Hey! Don't get too far ahead of yourself, man. This team needs a championship or two to reasonably be in the conversation, in my opinion. It's certainly the best team we've fielded in the "New NBA," though. The rules definitely favor a great backcourt, and we have the best backcourt in the league, a deep bench, and a terrific blend of young and veteran talent. Toss that into a blender with a coach who is perfect for the league of today, a mad genius as a GM, and we're going places. Yeah, we're going places. All we need is luck keeping the guys all in one piece.

    yes...for as long as basketball-reference db keeps the records to 2001.

    But I have to believe some of the 1991 Denver games had higher, if Elias keeps plus/minus that far back.

    Right, so he set a century record- I think they only started keeping track of this since 2001. Still, it would be a record just like Olajuwon's blocked shots (they only started keeping track of this during the 1973-1974 season).

    Well, that's just how far back Basketball-Reference goes. All you need is the Play by Play. It's all recorded.

    Willing to bet Elias Sports has PBP records going back further, and we'll hear tomorrow.

    Rockets win, take over the #1 in diffy (+9.8, GSW +8.9, BOS +7.3), and GSW SAS POR DEN BOS TOR lose. That's the 2-6 seeds in the west and 1-2 in the east. Happy Thanksgiving, motha****a!

    Exactly. We can at least say that Moute set the century mark.

    Look I know it was a great win ... And I know Ryan was out .... But , can we find a way to not have Ariza play 35 minutes in a massive blowout ?

    Love the win, love the defense, but Harden really needs to drastically reduce these high TOV games since CP3 is back. No excuse whatsoever to turn the ball over that many times when you're no longer the only main ball-handler on the team.
