Major props to Harden. He was incredible tonight especially when it was James + Bench lineup. He looked so comfortable out there.

Best win of the season BY FAR.

Amazing game by everyone involved.

Just wait till we get Harris and Claxton back.

Is it just me or does Harden seem to have better chemistry with Sharpe than Clax?

It’s nice to have a game like this where we’re not complaining after a bad performance.

Kyrie.. it's time to get the vax. Kd has mastered the scoring aspect of the game. It's beautiful to watch him go to work. Harden played great, he needs to continue being aggressive and not be complacent when he has the ball.

Really big win tonight! However if they go and lay an egg in some of the upcoming games it won’t mean much.

Yeah it’s clear that the big 3 playing together is our best chance to win.

They're waiting for the Omicron case numbers to crater in NYC and the mandate to get revised. Hopefully there's a Valentine's Day surprise.

I will say that when I first saw the starting lineup I said wtf. Turned out ok. I didn’t watch the whole game, fell asleep half way through. Plan on watching it tomorrow. But from what I saw they came with energy and effort. Even harden. Nice to see that finally.

yoo we smacked the living shhh out of them holy crap ! that 3rd quarter we was on one. This is how we suppose to end games, don't go up by 15 and let them come back, you stomp on them and crush their souls while you at it. We made highlight after highlight. This was definitely the best game I seen in a while. KD is just flat out amazing.

Harden seems to have a new pick n roll buddy in Sharpe. Dude has a knack of getting the ball in the basket and knowing where to be, he should definitely get more minutes with guys out. Edwards is exactly the 3 we need ! He is super active and quick, plays tough defense. We should leave him in the starting lineup with the big 3. I have a feeling he's going to be big for us when we need it.

I really like this Bulls team and Lavine is elite. But they're just too soft at the rim right now and I don't like their coach. They're definitely a tough team in the East for any team but I don't think they're a serious contender despite them being #1. We'll see what they do by the deadline.

The obvious question is -- what happened between that terrible stretch of pedestrian games capped by that horrendous showing against the G-League version of the Blazers, and this statement game? Did a players-only meeting clear out the air in the locker room? Or might this be just a one-off (where the players brought the energy-&-effort collectively, and Nash managed not to get in the way) with no sustainable formula that can be bottled & applied to similar, devastating effect moving forward?

Does Day'ron Sharpe's emergence now make the less-than-reliable Nic Claxton a possible tradeable asset before the deadline?

Having KD & Kyrie allows us to compete with most teams on most nights... But having a Harden whose shots are falling AND is orchestrating efficiently for others allows us to blow out ANY team.

I wonder if the league steps in if Kyrie pays the fines and plays home games the entire way through.
