Harrell with 17 points, 10 rebounds, and 3 blocks on 8/11 shooting in his first game with decent minutes.

I look forward to seeing him back on the bench next game. Don't want to break the streak of wasting our big men's potential with idiotic rotations.

Alot of it was in garbage time and it was against the Knicks. It was encouraging but let's not get carried away

Garbage time or not, it was good to see him get time out there. He should be in the rotation.

He had some pretty bad dropped passes but I thought he looked good

The following board warning has been issued to you for the following reason: Pure, unadulterated evil comment.

Seriously, I don't know why y'all hang on to that rivalry out of all rivalries

Only one I held on to from the past is the cardinals against the stros...but the cards I never ever want to see succeed, I hate them with a passion


I just read that Houston finished 54 out of 56 major media markets in Nielsen ratings for the World Series. Only Raleigh & Miami were less interested! :lol:

Man it was a great game. I tuned in once the rockets game was out of hand and in between each quarter and man that was a crazy ending

And guys, everyone should be a cubs fan...the GOAT bill Murray is a fan. That guy could like westboro baptist church and I would probably begin to think, "well, they aren't THAT bad"

If I named all of his classics I'd still be typing....had to cut it down to my 3 favorites

I mean all the Wes Anderson movies (2 out of those are actually some of my favorite movies of all time but I went with ones he made great mostly by himself [ill give you Chevy in caddy shack])

Ricky Vaughn. That right there is why they lost because he did not thrown out the first pitch.

But most importantly traditions need to stay alive.

He only had 4 points and 3 rebounds in the last half of the 4th quarter. 13 points 7 rebounds and 3 blocks in his 21 minutes up to that point. I think all of his blocks were on Rose, too.

I'm not saying the guy is a future Hall of Famer, but he's active around the basket and is VERY efficient at converting. He shoots in the 65 to 70%+ range in every game he gets decent minutes, going back to last season. He also showed flashes of a jumper in this Knicks game.

There's no reason the guy should have only had 4 minutes in the first 4 games of the year combined, is all I'm saying. Especially with Motie out.

Fair it's just hard to play 3 centers every game you know? I think he definitely has a future in the league especially if he ever gets down the 3 point shot he's been working on not sure he's ready yet though he struggles on the boards
