    We all read your quote and if we could give dislikes, you’d have the most of anyone.

    Yep, it's the biggest mystery that we don't get Jabari in more actions.

    41 minutes and 18 points from our three-man bench cadre of Josh, Holiday, and DFS. All were +.

    I like this 8-man grouping.

    Charles brought up a good point. Lebron would want this to wrap up at game 6 because if it hits game 7, we are going to win it. The longer the series goes, the less of a factor Lebron will be. It's just age no matter how good he is

    I wish Kenny would openly root for the Rockets once...Shaq is over there being a biased Laker fan but Kenny just never does it, not even for a moment.

    And even while being sick I think Reed was the biggest reason we maintained some sort of momentum into the last few minutes. If we had KD available, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't have been in the game and even had the CHANCE to prove what he's made of.

    Kid is already getting more and more clutch by the game.
