NBA 2015-2016

Warriors barely come away from Boston with their unbeaten record intact.

Curry had a poor night with his shooting, but the rest of the team picked up the slack.

Celtics are a really good team - they'll make some noise in the East come the playoffs.
 
Still think the Cavs will end the Warriors streak on Christmas. Not sure who they have until then. Suns and Jazz I think?

Bucks up next...that double overtime will leave them tired.

Remember they've been on the road 6 consecutive games.

Then again if Klay Thompson returns, that should provide a big boost

Forgot about the back-to-back. Bucks might be tough. They're also coming off a back-to-back (not with double OT though). Think they'll sneak past them even without Klay though.
 
Luke Walton is coaching the Warriors?

Life is crazier than weird shit.

He was on the Lakers when i lived in LA, a controversial player as he was smart but slow. Fine if you just need a cog, and that's what we needed. But on a bad team he'd never have played.
 
A Christmas day win over the Cavs would be their 33nd straight... Ugly win last night but they came away with it - definitely won't be easy tonight again in Milwaukee.

Hopefully they are foolish enough to go for 72-10. Which would mean more minutes for Curry and co, leaving them exhausted come playoff time.
 
Tough to really know with Klay out but I really think the Bucks are the worst matchup possible for the Dubs... They can switch pretty much everything and they're long enough to contest everything too.. Didn't see them getting blown out though

They will get smashed in the Oracle next week. GSW were coming off a double OT last night against Boston and a 7 game road trip. I'd say it's only fatigue and shots not going in.
 
Ahh such a anti climax, would have been epic for them to go undefeated into the Cavs game on Xmas day.

Klay was playing.
 
Well I got my Cavs beating them on Christmas to break the streak prediction wrong. Oh well, not really a big deal. They were always going to lose eventually. They'll still finish with the #1 seed IMO. Just interesting now to see which team can give them the most difficulty and potentially set-up a good play-off series.
 
Hearing a lot of rumors of a trade happening for Ryan Anderson or Markieff Morris, D-Mo returning almost makes me not want to add a PF, he was so good tonight, the whole team as well, if it wasn't for Kobe playing so good tonight the Rockets lead would've been wider at the end as well, I'm hoping we're turning a corner right now although the Rockets fan base seems to me as the worst tbh, on their forum a lot of fans have been calling for Harden to be traded. :lol:
 
From the bottom of my heart, I think harden should be traded. His game just doesn't cut it in the playoffs, and all his bullshit isos piss me off. It's very telling that the Clips comeback was with him on the bench. I love D-Mo, think he can man the PF slot, but he's not quick enough. I would trade for Markieff it meant getting rid of Lawson, really thought he'd work but he needs the ball to be effective which doesn't work with Harden. I'm really becoming disillusioned with everything though, I stuck it out when Aaron Brooks was out best player but it just sucks now. But then again I only became a fan since TMac got traded there when he was my favorite player as a kid:lol:.. I'm happy for you man, I've never been to a game before at Toyota Center, only when they come to LA. Watched the game a couple years back when Chandler backed in a 3 from half court to send it to OT from like the 3rd row.. Awesome moment!

Should come back to the Thunder! We live for bullshit isos :(

Come on now, Harden has been terrific except for a few games, no way the Rockets would've got 2nd seed without him let alone won the Clippers series without him and him having a bad game at the play-offs doesn't mean he can't be more consistent, remember he's only 26 y.o! If the Rockets build around him they'll definitely win at least a championship, I'm not completely sold on the idea that Lawson isn't going to work, he was excellent tonight although it was against the Lakers but he worked his ass off, if he can do that on a regular basis he can lead the bench, just imagine a bench of in-form Lawson, Thornton, Brewer, and Capela.
 
I mean I get isos, but he tries to cross his guy 3 times before doing anything. It's the worst when he starts attacking with 6 seconds left on the clock, it's already he given he's gonna pull up because he crosses over so many times all he can do is that step back face he shoots. At least Durabt and Westbrook attack with purpose.

You're not really serious about trading Harden, are you?
 
@King Kendrick Harden is also 9th in the league in Assists, of course with his talent he's going for isos, he's drive to the basket is insane and his step back is crazy good, plus he already have 6 40+ points games at this stage which is amazing on it's own.
 
The thing that pisses me off with Harden is his lack of effort on the defensive end.

He simply doesnt try. He is a straight up baller and we know he's going to get his...but how about not leaving your team playing 4 on 5 on defense!
 
That is simply not true, you don't get almost 2 steals and 1 block a game being a bad defender, I know Harden isn't an elite defender but he is actually a good defender, he may lack effort on 2-3 defensive positions per game and not box out for some rebounds but playing 38+ minutes per game cause that.

We'll give you Knight, Markieff and Archie for Harden and a second rounder.
 
I knew Milwaukee will end the streak after that game in Boston. GS were absolutely exhausted at the end.
