Hey, who's minding the store over here? The game's been on 20 minutes.
Harden's back. I predict he has a monster game.

This should easily be a blowout. Too much talent disparity between the teams

Wow...I know it's only Cleveland, but this team is playing so well I'm getting teary eyed.
Even Harden is moving the ball around well.
I have to admit that I kinda hate that there is the whole Lin vs Bev thing (which I know I'm as guilty of perpetuating as anyone else) because I just love the hustle and unselfishness that Beverley brings.
I think Lin and Bev play great together, btw.

The lack of consistent defense and predictable habit of letting teams hang around/comeback is annoying.

Harden really hurting the team right now. His thumb must be more serious than I thought.

This is a young team and inexperienced coach.

Caught two breaks there.
Small lineup

It amazes me, McHale would allowed Harden to play such poor defense w/o any accountability.
He doesn't have ability to see 2 or 3 plays ahead of him before he distributes as a pure P/G.
Let the guy, play a pure S/G so that he can get his proper points that we desperately need since we aren't playing proper defense.

I just don't get it. Who's got the best explanation of how this happens?

Lin to the rescue! Thank you McHale for putting him in when the team needed a spark

I was at my nephew's basketball game. He's 10 and got an "unsportsmanlike warning" for doing a Mutombo finger-wag after blocking another kid's shot. Obviously I had to buy him ice cream after that!

Lin and DMo are playing very well now, maturing right in front of our eyes. Gotta give some credits to McHale for developing young players. His defense and Xs and Os are another thing.

For the record, everyone thought that it was funny. Even the Ref was having a hard time not laughing as he issued the warning. The kid who's shot he blocked is one of my nephew's best friends. But NOT IN MY HOUSE!!!

Nice ball movement on those plays! Good hustle by the guys on the floor right now.

I like Patrick.
Next to Parsons, he's probably the most professional guy on the team. All business, all the time.
