It's the NBA. Let down for a game and anyone can get you.

Gives us a little more breathing for the 2 spot for now even though it's early days.
Doesn't excuse last night's choke, but it ends up not hurting them in the standings now either. If Eric Gordon misses significant time the Clippers and Rockets may end up in a dogfight for seeding; bad news for the Spurs if the Clippers land in their bracket.
Also part of the reason I want Rockets is the possibility of Harden getting fatigued by the time we reach the second round of playoffs (all this reg season load added up to ,say, a 7-game 1st R series vs the Grizzlies might catch up with him)..
Still, the Spurs have to avoid the Clips at all costs..Pop and his coaching stuff have continuously shown they simply have no clue how solve this team..
They should probably blow it up and fire their coach. De able to lose a reg season game smh
Yeah maybe they should get the owners together and tell D'Antoni to stop trying to be a genius!![]()
But you guys, good teams never lose games. If they do, they're the worst team in the history of the league with the worst coach in the galaxy.
Don't we know it! Blow it up!!!![]()
Yup. Idk how he's lasted this long tbh.
I knowthere are no good teams anymore. How no one has gone 82-0 is beyond me
Maybe this will show the doom sayers on here that all teams have flaws.
I have a problem with the Rockets. I want them to finish 3rd, above the Clippers, but I also want Kawhi to have a real chance at MVP (which will not happen if Harden finishes top 3). Hopefully the Jazz overtake both Clippers and Rockets.
Kawhi's shot at MVP is all but gone tbh. At this point Harden, Westchimp, Antetokounmpo, LeBron, and Butler are all ahead of him.
We've never beat (or faced) the Rockets in the playoffs during the Pop/Duncan years. We've beaten every other Western Conference team at least once.
It's a Harden or Westbrook. The others don't stand a chance.
Pretty much, yeah. Been saying it for a month now: if Westchimp averages a triple double it's his, otherwise it goes to Harden.
Kawhi has no chance as long as Pop is coaching this team..
Even without Harden/Westrbook having these type of seasons; no MVP gonna get that award without few signature games (+40 point etc), which won't happen on Poop watch..
Kawhi has no chance since he plays for Pop and his minutes are always managed. Plus the Spurs are playing about the same as last regular season record wise. Harden is gonna win it this year as long as he's healthy.
Houston had a tough back-to-back. Had to travel from Houston last night to polar weather Minnesota today. Losing on the road to Minnesota on the back end of a back-to-back does not equal losing to the Bucks at home, while having a double digit lead, without Giannis.
Even with the loss, Houston only half a game back of the Spurs. Spurs are now 2.5 back on the Warriors. No chance the Spurs get #1.... Gonna be a real dog fight to get #2.

Rub ´n Gum Pringles teams are good for RS.
Kawhi being MVP is not good for business, MVP´s play heavy minutes to promote the show, they get the calls and the attention so unless Kiws starts playing over 40 minutes...
SA s lost AT HOME to the in' Bux![]()
With Michael in Beasley going off on Danny Green![]()
LeBron has all but taken himself out of the race by acquiring Korver & then losing 2 in a row.![]()
Eh, if Lebron decides he wants it he can go for it anytime. We've seen him put up historic numbers like Avante puts up paragraphs of nonsense.
