^ btw there's a reason why Ross only played 6 minutes... and it is not depth at the SG position.

He missed two shots and played decent defence.

You're acting like he turned the ball over and fouled out

What is funny, is that looked like a quiet night for Lillard. He missed some shots he usually makes, wasn't being real aggressive and a lot of people were missing shots that he had helped them get.

I looked at the stat sheet and did not expect 21 pts and 7 asts (with 3 rbs and only 2 tos).

He did play 37 minutes, and was 100x better than our backup PG, but it still seemed like a quiet night.

MKG was fantastic defensively last night, just couldn't get anything going offensively. Refs didn't help.

He has some impressive handles.

I admire your belief in Jonas, but it's early to compare JV with someone like Dwight. Comparisons done by the debut game aren't the most reliable.

Anyone think Harrison Barnes can join the shooting festival with Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry?

I watched the Warriors-Grizzlies game last night and Barnes just blends in with the background for most of the game. He got his shine when he hit those threes but after that, he didn't produce. Curry and Thompson were having a shootout and I hope one day Barnes could join them too.

Don't say that. Next thing you know they'll be comparing him to Shaq.

Sully can rebound well which helps us big time. He is like Big Baby though in one way as he gets his shot blocked a fair bit.

Lillard is having a rough night in Houston. Hopefully he can pick it up in the 4th.

Beal looking like a less explosive version of randy foye, if thats possible.
