Toronto played with House money in the 2nd half. I guess you can do that with a 30 pt lead.

I'm enjoying watching them fail. Easily the most unlikable team in the league. Hope their struggles continue. |

| Really sad to see what's happening to the Clippers and Rockets early in this year. If this can happen to teams of exalted grit & fortitude like them, it can really happen to anyone. |

Rivers is the problem. Bad x/o guy. Only good at motivating and his messaging has officially lost its power. You are asking a group of guys who didn't seem to like each other last year to circle the wagons. Dj doesn't want to be there but cold feet got the best of him.
Cp3 though elite is on the other side . Does Blake have that gene to ask the guys to jump on his shoulders? |

Better question - Does Blake even have the shoulders?

| I think the Clippers and Rockets were demoralized by the Warriors. They know they can't beat them and they've just given up on the season. |

Clippers and Rockets have been close for a few years, but unable to hit the next level. Even Memphis. Now all 3 teams are years older, and to me it seems that with the same song and dance, the players just being older - want to skip to the playoffs already. They don't want to give it their all just to get in the playoffs and then be beat. They wanna get there right away. Classic cases of age/complacency.
The Lakers teams were much like this at one point, but at least they had proven themselves to be winners - champions. These Mem, Clippers and Rocket teams are coming out flat despite having proven nothing in terms of championships. Shows you how hard it is to build dynasties and what Kobe/Shaq/Phil, Kobe/Pau/Phil or Duncan/Pop have accomplished is truly marvelous. |

I am not sure the dominant PG thing works in today's NBA. CP3 is so ball dominant and Griffin has been carrying a heavy load for years already.

I don't think it's Doc. It's CP3. He can't carry a team. |

Okafor outplaying Towns in their first meeting. They aren't guarding each other but no one on the Wolves seems capable of stopping Okafor from scoring. He's having his way with Dieng and KG. Okafor's defense is really bad though.

I want Philly to win.
Only because when we play them next week, we won't have the chance to be the first team they beat.

Why? Is he bad at free throws or something like that? |

I think defense and a breather. He's back in with 1:26. He lost a potential offensive rebound, but this games gonna be a good finish. |

| Andrew Wiggins plays like post-prime Kobe but with prime Kobe athleticism. Minimal ball handling but boy does it work if he gets in his spots and has a really good passer setting him up. All post moves or triple threats jabs but the first step, leaping, and finishing moves(spin/euro) make him unstoppable |

15 pts in the last 9 mins of the game. He took over when it counted. |

Not the first time this year either. I think he did the same against Orlando, not sure if they pulled it out tho |
