The Spurs starters score 36 points... and the bench scores 58 and they win by 26. Championship quality teams need a real bench.

And we will too - possibly as soon as nextseason

Its crazy to think how close we are to being a real force (with Drummond resigning and then building a bench), after being a really mediocre team for quite a few years.

James Harden's defense was an inside job.

Pacers - Stuckey
Rockets - JSMoove (And DMo )
Celtics - Amir and Jerebko
Mavs - Villanueva
Thunder - Singler... and somehow Nazr is still in the league
Cavs - Grand Rapids Drive legend Dahntay Jones

I think that's everyone unless I'm forgetting somebody

I would love to have Amir & Middleton back, and Joe literally just gave them away.

If we had Middleton, this team would be almost complete IMO. He's a perfect super-role player.

What happened to Durant? He used to be a likable guy but he turned into a douchelord. Too much Westbrook influence I suppose (great talent but such a tool).

Celtics Hawks game has turned into some fun going into the 4th. Isaiah Thomas really impresses me.

Looking at Kanter and Stevens playing together really reminds me of Dre/Monroe. Monroe would have been perfect coming off the bench and gradually working next to Drummond.

It's sad we've committed to this trash SVG offensive system. SVG=2nd round playoff ceiling.

Maker's cousin is here. Is funny because SVG has reached the Finals with the Magic. Have you notice how BAD are the Thunder on defense? They got no options to win a ring because they're an awful team on D, and rely too much in their 2 superstars.

It is not always about having superstar players. That point is moot if they have to play 40mpg because of a bad bench.

There could very well be the year the Clippers get broken up since they just can't seem to win. I'd love to somehow maneuver to get Griffin somehow.

I know I'm trying to think of a way to get Griffin that doesn't involve us losing both KCP and Johnson.

If Cleveland doesn't win this season I still expect Paul/Griffin for Kyrie/Love monster deal in the off-season.

To even let Doc pick up the phone would involve both KCP and Johnson, along with our future picks. Our roster would be gutted.

If Doc trades any one of Paul, Griffin, and DeAndre, he's rebuilding.

CP3 for Irving is an obvious move.

I personally believe the Clips don't have the wings needed to really contend.

They face Durant, Leonard, Klay in the playoffs & can't come close to slowing them down

I'm good on Blake now. Dude is injury prone for sure

Dwight Howard is a joke of a basketball player at this point.
