    I want to say the lights are too bright for him, but Kentucky games were more hectic than this dead ass crowd.

    A lot of Laker's players are being run off of off-the-ball screens. It makes it more difficult for our defenders. Us?? Just Fonde ball.

    I hate to say this but the NBA told you who was winning game 1 when the Durant news came out. Save your stress and heart from this bs.

    It's frightening the lack of basketball awareness in this thread so far towards certain players.

    Almost like they're not aware of what you've just said and how it drastically influences a game.

    We can't score, but at least causing Lakers turnovers on the other end.

    This is some ugly basketball. Rockets hopefully relax at halftime.
