Well yes. That part is true. Jimmy called out his teammates too, but not so recently!

And Ariza blows past McDermott for the layup.

Yeah, if Jimmy called out MCW and the next game, MCW played well and Jimmy was awful, I'd be fine with MCW snapping back at him too. Kind of lame that superstars can trash their teammates and seem to be immune to the reverse.

I agree with that.

Nene is exhibit B why it's rather pointless to invest too much in a true center.

Westbrook a triple-double in the first-half...

Fitz is the truth. I hope Memphis gets trigger happy and the Bulls snap him up haha

Harden with 8 points on 2-11 FG.

Superstars have bad games.

Amazing how much Jerami Grant looked like his uncle Horace on that catch and dunk.

Westbrook just scored his first points of the 2nd half with 8 minutes to go in the 4th Q

Westbrook needs to pass, he creates so much room for his teammates. Grant was wide open a few possessions ago, nice pass from Russ. Need to do that even more. Hero ball won't be enough here.

James Harden is bastardizing the game of basketball. So disgusting.

I think he's gone.

Especially if he doesn't get that All-NBA nod triggering his next contract.

Can't believe Donovan failed to go offense/defense with Roberson on those last few possessions. Dumbfounding.
