Playoff P is my favorite player. They say ghosts don't exist, but I disagree.
Explain yourself! Honestly, I have no idea what this means.
Paul George dubbed himself that a couple of years ago, and then disappointed.

I'm watching HOU/OKC Game 2 right now. Harden looks legitimately fat. He seems out of breath and hunches over after every play, grabbing his shorts. Something tells me he didn't spend the bubble break rigorously working on his conditioning.

Yea he looks thicc for sure. Still, the offense is working for him and when I watch him with D'Antoni on the sideline, I wonder what it would've been like to see Nash play and shoot in with that kind of attitude. He always had the ability and I know it wasn't his natural intuition, but if he would've just let it fly at times the way Harden, Curry, Lillard do now I wonder if we would've gotten over that hump.

I don't know if anyone here missed him. I think some of us were pissed we had to give up assets to get rid of him.

Harden went 2-11 , Eric 0-10 from 3 and Rockets still won by 13 because in a shocking development those guys were really scrapping on D

Billy Donovan took Lou Dort out the game with 4+ mins left and he was doing an awesome job on Harden who proceeded to then score 9 quick points
That was baffling

Not sure we HAD to, chose to seems more apt. I liked Warren, he was just redundant here. We made a bad trade with him sadly.

The Lakers need to stop dicking around and play AD at the 5 for 30 minutes a game.
AD hates playing the 5. He wants to play like a guard. Also, he has never been exactly durable.
I know. But they're not going to win a title if they cater to his insecurities in the playoffs.

Mavs currently up by about 10 points over the Clips early in the 4th quarter. Luka already has a triple-double along with 28 points. Maybe it's just me, but I think that kid might turn out to be good.

Sure... If all you care about is triple doubles... and winning.

How about Dort’s defense on Harden?! It’s been stunning. Nobody can guard Harden like he can.

Holy shit. Luka hits an AMAZING game-winner to beat the Clips at the buzzer in OT. Final line: 43 points, 17 rebs, 13 ast.

I don't know. Can he do it against college players?

He was probably my favorite draft prospect since Anthony Davis. I followed him for 3 years before the draft. Sigh....
