    Of Rivers and House.Rivers hit two huge back to back in the third and a massive one in OT and played solid defense.House was good all night again.

    House is the man. Plays solid D and hits 3s at a consistent rate (especially if its wide open). Also can hit FTs!!!! Who else can say that on our team??

    What a find by our GM Daryl Morey!!

    Clint was disappointing me defensively in the 1st half, but man, he had the game of his life

    29 points and 21 rebounds with 9 of them offensive...he gave us so many extra possessions and made some key defensive plays like that block on KD’s dunk attempt...holic mad as hell right now

    All the guys played well in the end, even Gerald had a good enough second half, in the first he was trash but in the end he made two/three big plays too.

    But yeah, Rivers has been really great so far, especially on D he's a big surprise, dude is not scared by anyone either.

    Actually on the contrary. You have plenty of posters believing Clint was horrible tonight.

    House had 17 points on 5 shots. Green and Rivers hit some big shots.

    i never ever thought i would say this, but Austin River might be our best signing of the season. I mean House is a baller but something about River's demeanor or a swag this team was lacking. He fits like a glove.

    Yeah, I'm so happy with him this year. I had this feeling he was going to come falling back down to earth this season...especially his 3 point shot. But that hasn't been the case at all. He may even be playing better.

    House out there laughing in Greens face was priceless after he blocked Rivers . House doesn’t back down and works his ass off

    Definitely a different type of player, but he reminds me of the Pat Bev type of swag.
