Big statement win against the Rockets today...makes you wonder what if Harden had stayed on in OKC, how potent would they be with his improvement? Hard to tell, as all of them KD, Westbrook and Harden are basketball dominant players who need the ball in their hands to be effective. It would be quite a stagnant offense I would think, with them taking turns to dominate the ball and isolate and jack up outside shots.
This may sound a little crazy... but Griffin is playing like an MVP right now. He's damn near unstoppable these days. Could make a case for most improved player. Not so much statistically, he's just a far better player all-round.
Good to see TH jnr put together another good game, 7 from 11 in 38 mins. Shooting 3 from 5 from 3 land. It was good to see him not taking every single shot and actually waiting for an open look.

“It’s just a reality,” Nash said, in a Grantland.com video documentary. “I’m not going to retire because I want the money. It’s honest. We want honest athletes, but at the same time, you’re going to have people out there saying ‘He’s so greedy. He’s made x amount of money and he has to take this last little bit.’ Yes, I do, have to take that last little bit. I’m sorry if that is frustrating to some but if they were in my shoes they would do exactly the same thing. I wouldn’t believe for a minute that they wouldn’t.”
Gotta make 10 games to be ineligible for medical retirement and guaranteed the money?
Coincidental number for his jersey!

I'm surprised Nash said this, maybe he's been hearing whispers or talk of people telling him to walk. He's well within his rights to take the money. Hopefully he spends next season signing plenty of Autos for fans, I've heard he can be tough to get.
