    Why would you respond with "ok"?

    If that's all I have to say I wouldn't bother even replying? Are you upset I said something that offended you?

    Baaaaaad loss. They have to spell PJ Tucker more. Playing him 40 + minutes on a back to back is f-ing crazy.

    Did you watch the game?
    Harden is the only one that showed up and his legs were gone, I don't understand what you are talking about.

    You said mda should have stayed with the bench, he did, and the lead still ballooned because rose was allowed to dance around like he was still in Chicago. No trap no bring in stefalosa no nothing.

    Capela gradually morphing into Dwight Howard with his stone hands and robotic low post game. He keeps going up soft when he is fully capable of dunking.

    I saw Harden's face especially after House made bone head play upon bone head play....... It was "yep, these dudes suck and I can't carry them today".

    Where was all this fight from the bench in the first half? Harden's far from perfect but we can't realistically expect the guy to drag for you 82 games straight. If he's struggling why can't the other players step up? How about our near max center who can't make a layup over Christian Woods of all people. Where is are the sets from our offensive genius coach? Ben shot the ball pretty good tonight, why didn't he get more shots?

    Harden ALWAYS shows up in the context of face up iso scoring. He enjoys that. It's fun for him so you'll never see him get bored of doing that. When people refer to Harden's energy not showing up they are referring to the part of the game that doesn't involve iso scoring such as running back on defense, moving your feet in defense, not allowing cutters to the rim, playing transition defense etc.
