For sure


How are we missing KD and Kyrie when Harden is the only one who is available?


Because when they are the floor, it makes everything soooo much easier in the last 2 mins.

I'm going to be blunt. James Harden shows up for this team every night. Kyrie takes time off, and KD has been plagued by injury and covid foolishness.

James Harden is the leader of this team and he will lead us to the championship. Respect him and love him

What a game. Left it all on the floor. Despite Hardens ending he carried the team this game. He played defense too. Had to be tired. Now Warriors have to win.

Nah.

Harden is showing up every night. There is a huge difference


I agree 3pt here. He's best player but he ain't Kyrie or KD when it come to closing games.

Harden is the only one who is always available though

KD and Kyrie have ceded control to Harden over this team. They will make for good spot up shooters in the playoffs

King - MVP enough said.
Knight - Nic
Blake coming around, he needs to shoot wide open jumpers though. Blazers ain't some bum azz team, good win guys. I won't mind resting up for the next game.

To win against a good team like Portland in Portland without Kyrie and KD is special.

Just a great buzzer to buzzer game. Great effort by both teams. The officials called a good game.

Another gritty win. Another game we win where we don't shoot well from 3. This team is deep man. We're down 2 stars + 1 rotation player.

Harden makes it look so easy. It's ridiculous. Hope his 3PT shot comes back soon. Its been MIA since the ASB.

Impressed by Blake today. I think he'll do better when he can play more with one of our stars but he was really unselfish, hustling everywhere defensively, trying to take charges. Even got an easy bucket on a post up switch.

Kind of wild how quickly our team adjusts. That 2nd unit probably hasn't had a practice together and they looked great.

He won't get a lot of love but Joe Harris is such a baller man. He was running the 2nd unit at points. Took a bunch of mid-range shots today because we needed more volume from him. Smooth 17 points - +12 on the night. He just does whatever it takes.

Nic making it hard not to play him late in a games, I'm just not ready to give him that. Joe's value to this team is huge. We'll see what Blake can provide with KD and Kyrie back in a game. We need this team healthy soon, we playing with fire.

Haha, this is def an overaction. I get being frustrated with their injuries but KD will def be the main scorer when back.
