    That tackle is trending on twitter. I sure hope they review that. I also get a feeling Steph might play the next game but the Warriors could easily take this series without him.

    yep, everyone else gets to be frustrated about watching one more game but I'm glad its not a sweep

    it does bum me out the Rockets can win, especially in this fashion, and still get shit piled on them against the greatest team ever though (even w/o their best player)

    oh well

    Freaking Draymond Green man. There is really no excuse for a 3-man ref crew to miss this call. It is in the middle of the lead or the middle's primary haha.
     
  6. @incognitojones He has to play. He's going to need to work off the little bit of rust from sitting 2 games.

    Ayyyy CJ won Most Improved Player.
     
  8. Kemba finishing second in the voting is cool. He wasn't talked about much for it.

    Kemba had my vote, but we have had that debate here and we all knew CJ was winning. Congrats to him and the Blazer community.

    He wasn't that bad in Toronto, trust me I hated him too. He was such a bad pick. Imagine if you had klay and kemba. I think Kemba was probably the best draft pick charlottes had since Jordan bout them. Weird.
     
  13. Charlotte's drafting hasn't been terrible in recent years. MKG was a good pick but injuries have plagued his career so far. You can't blame the front office for that. He didn't have injury concerns prior to being drafted. It sucks seeing Drummond, Lillard drafted after him though. Cody wasn't a bad pick either looking bad. He's a solid player and that draft hasn't produced anything too crazy outside of Greek Freak who went #15. Noah Vonleh was an iffy pick but he landed us Batum who has been great for us. And so far Frank looks promising.

    So not necessarily bad drafting. Just haven't hit the jackpot on a superstar yet.

    It's always tough to compare the relative value of players with injury histories, but a healthy MKG is better than Drummond.

    Edit: In fact, a healthy MKG is arguably the most underrated player in the league.

    This narrative about the Rockets' bench not reacting is so absurd and taken out of the context of the game.

    If you watch the play after Harden's shot, when Draymond dribbles it off his foot, you can see the bench go crazy.

    Why? Because now the game has been won.

    If his health allowed you to watch him more often you'd be sure.
     
  21. The best thing that happened to his team was that he's not able to play. Not a resounding good look for MKG.

    It will be interesting to see if they keep Batum and Marvin this off-season. Marvin picked a great year to be in a contract season.
     
  24. I think Batum will be a priority and Marvin goes elsewhere.

    We will be looking for some bigs this offseason.
