There's just no such thing as two good games from Hali in a row
"I’ve seen a guy that played for the Pacers, gave them everything they had, or everything he had, and was essentially traded to the dogs. And I’m speaking on Danny Granger, who was one of the better players in Pacers history"

I think the conversion rate for Indy deficits is basically to divide the lead by 2, perhaps even 3. So this like another team being within 6-8 points
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Plays like a poor man’s Harden- without prime Hardens offensive talent.


I'd argue Shai is way more dangerous. Harden was just 3/2 or 4/1 high pnr, Shai is an all time finisher and hits the middy time and time again huge difference.


Not even close. Prime harden wipes the floor with Alexander offensively.

Hali is not a superstar. Clutch yes, but superstar, no

Daignault with good time out. The lead grows again. OKC is out-working Pacers.

Ock “all time defense “ is basically a bunch of midget perimeter defenders allowed to hack.
