Bigger brain fart was Boogie throwing that pass.

It was a bad pass but nah I think not throwing the ball straight up was dumber. AD threw it right to the defender and they still only had 0.7 seconds left. He throws it straight up and game is over easy. The pass was bad but that was because he missed the throw, wasn't a "brain fart" per se.

Harden wears down. That is what happened in the Spurs series. They should have taken game 5 and let it slip and he was just gassed. He wasn't getting any help. The idea behind CP3 isn't that they are a great fit together but that they keep each other fresh. 

I think when CP3 returns this week you will see a willing Harden turn over some duties to him. 

The only flaw the rockets have had this season has been PG without Harden on the floor. Adding a HOFer to play that role will be incredible. If for nothing other than the 12 minutes harden isn't there. 

I still have a hard time seeing why people think they can't coexist. very few players I think CP3 would actually be a bad fit with, one of the most well rounded PG's ever

AD was going out of bounds and had to throw it. Sorry, he should have never been in that situation. Terrible decision by Boogie.

Because the throw was high, not because of the decision to throw it to AD. He had an easy dunk at the rim if the pass was good.

It would have taken a very good pass for that to happen. Boogie is a nice passer for a big, but that's not the type of pass you want him making there. If it was Rondo then sure, but he's not Rondo. And honestly even then, I'd hate to take a risk there.

Booker dropped 36/4/3, TJ Warren dropped 23/8 and Dragan Bender had a career high 15, but the issue is they had nobody else who could do anything tonight. 

Another issue is they can’t play without 1 of Book or TJ on the floor, because nobody else on the team can score. I think this is a big reason why Josh Jackson is struggling, because other than Bender the bench sucks. 

Our PG tandem of James and Ulis is by far the worst in the NBA. James isn’t an NBA player, and Ulis has regressed HARD from his rookie year. He was hurt all summer but damn, get it together. 

Troy Daniels is a nice catch and shoot guy but that’s it. Alex Len is good for a solid game once out of every 5 games. Tyson Chandler is god awful. I mean wtf.

Have we talked about Ben Simmons defense? He is pretty good there.

I remember people questioned it coming it but my favorite comparison was a super talented, elite sized Draymond Green. 

He's honestly been fantastic on defense. Very impressed.
