Nash doesn't believe Green and TLC are anything serious.

Sounds like he just wants to give them tonight and the all-star break to play it safe.

So if I'm reading this right, the exciting part is we get everyone but Dinwiddie back after the break, Durant too.

Of course if there are any questions at all about Durant we will keep him out longer, but I have a feeling he's chomping at the bit to be a part of this run and he'll likely be back to 100% after the break.

We'll see about that, but we should definitely be getting Uncle Jeff and TLC back.

kinda spooky going against a team with revenge motivation on a 12 game losing streak. you don't know what stage of the grieving process they're at.

Surprised at the number of fouls being called early on. Feels weird because most of the time it feels like we don't get very many calls at all.

Rightfully so. I think they will settle down, though. Similar to the Warriors game.

Refs are certainly foul call happy tonight. I guess they’re trying to nullify any potential for animosity to arise with Harden’s first visit back to Houston.

I like Brown a lot, but baking soda really can be used for so many different things. It’s a close call lol.

Fair. No disrespect to baking soda intended. I got a bit excited and used some hyperbole. My apologies, Baking Soda.

Coaches will tolerate physical errors, but have little tolerance for mental errors.

Roberson keeps not knowing how much time is on the clock and he won't be here much longer.
