This is that official ****. Real talk. :D

The Harris vs. Paul matchup should be fun to watch, it'll also be interesting to see how Brook plays against a rejuvenated Tyson Chandler.

I voted no.
My main reasons are his injury just when he was coming around, his misuse by Opie and his lack of consistency.

I am happy with his defensive and rebounding efforts and his willingness to defer without causing a stink though.

All in all, I like Yi and his potential and never had a real problem with the trade.

So-so start.
Excellent effort, bad shooting, too many turnovers.

Sean making his mark defensively yet again. This is three straight games.

Plus Harris/Carter are dominating.

What the hell has gotten into Opie?

Playing CDR in a non-garbage minute situation!

Man, I like David West as a player, but he throws up some straight up prayers.
He must be a religious man.

That Devin to CDR fullcourt pass was Jason Kiddesque.

I'm glad Sean stopped playing like a chicken without its head, he's having a positive impact on the court right now.

I don't like David West as a player. One of the most overrated bigs in the league. Should be a backup with the kind of defense he plays.

I have to disagree.
Although I agree to an extent that his defense is pretty bad, he is not ovverrated as a player.
He would be a perfect fit on this team opposite Brook and Sean and Ryan.
He is a dirty player though, which I hate on the opposing team but love on mine.

Wow.

Basketball must be an easy game for Chris Paul when he is aloud epic moving screens on 3 straight offensive possessions.

Opie with the idiotic substitution, Brook for Swat.

Should have been Brook for Simmons or Jarvis.
