Harden in the MDA system...wow. 12 and 9 at the end of 1.
I watched for a few minutes. As PG the ball is in his hands a lot. D'Antoni has them getting shots up.

Kings putting a whooping up on the Suns. They might have a shot at being the worst team in the league this year, which is crazy when you actually look at their roster with Bledsoe, Knight, and Booker, along with a good mix of young talent and veteran leadership.

This Rockets team is going to be fun. Harden is outrageous.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

Why is D'Angelo so good??

Also, lots of Lakers fans compare Randle to Draymond. Randle has 12 pts, 3 rebounds, and 5 assists. While the defense isnt there, he does seem to be showing the passing skills...are they really right?
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

Russell showed star potential as a rookie.  Kid has a really bright future.

Yeah, he's got a bright future as an offensive star. He'll need the right pairing at the 2 with him to cover his defensive deficiencies, but he'll be a major scorer in the league.

Markelle Fultz is considered a more athletic D'Angelo Russell. Just putting that out there. #NetsPick

can he shoot it as well as russell can though? his stroke is so, SO nice. literally every shot he takes from deep, i expect it to go in.

i normally hate showy young players, ESPECIALLY if theyre lakers, but this kid, man. his swagger is awesome

It's probably not as good, no. But, DLoading's stroke wasn't this good in college. He's gotten his release to be SO quick.

it looks so effortless, so smooth. wouldnt it be great if smart could shoot like that? lol

and why is Clarkson so good? he has 25 in 24 minutes off the bench. I really thought he was a "good numbers on a bad team" kinda player, am i wrong at this point?

How do the Lakers draft so well?

Has Julius Randle leapfrogged Marcus Smart yet?

Another classic example of good stats on a bad team guy. 18 and 7 on 9-11 shooting, yet he's a -8 in +/-. He'll leapfrog Marcus when he starts making regular positive impacts on the game.

He's certainly putting up the numbers. But does it actually lead to wins? I think Clarkson won them this game tonight, not Randle.

To be fair, that's what I thought about Clarkson, and here he is, making all the winning plays in this game.

Also, at some point, you have to figure that that argument doesn't always work. Those are good numbers, against actual NBA players.
