    All the greats are laughed at / mocked and not appreciated in their time. It’s a good sign and I love it!

    Too many youngsters here, small ball is not new it just dies in the playoffs, ask Don Nelson.

    We where hot from 3. I hope we keep it up because when the threes are not falling it's going to be tough. I'm still panicking but I will be more than happy to eat crow if this works.

    Don nelson didn't have as crafty of a foul drawer as James Harden. Small ball works in some match ups but we still need a big man to play when Westbrook sits.

    We are going to have the Brazilian Durant soon
    Jokic is not going to stop Westbrook or Harden, that should be the narrative.

    How quick the haters went from "watch the Lakers obliterate them" to "haha, they'll never win a 7 game series"

    This. Everybody, not only the TNT studio barber shop crap-tet but even the normally knowledgeable Webber/Albert didn't note that Clint Capela was not playing tonight and will not play for another week or more regardless of whose team he was on.

    IF only they hadn't traded Capela, they .... still wouldn't have had Capela.

    We were hot from 3 because we were getting wide open looks.

    And let’s not forget - our star player, the best offensive player on the planet, had an off night and we still beat the full strength Lakers on their home court by 10.

    We didn’t play our best game and we won anyway.

    But one of our guards is James Harden who is a really good post defender. Gordon is also very stout for a guard.

    Small ball dies in the playoffs, says Nellie. Also, losing your MVP-caliber player Dirk Nowitzki in game 3 of the WCFs is to be avoided if at all possible.
