He extended, locked up for another 4-5 years, so he should be traded in 3-4. :(

The money difference makes it worth the extra few years wasting away in LA.

17,000



But seriously, he's averaging 29 shots. But 45% from the field, 44% from 3, so it's solid, somewhat efficient.

He's really just had the one bad half. He's shot 11 of 21 twice. Then he shot 17 of 44, but I think he was over 50% in the 2nd half in that game, he just had a dreadful 1st half.

29 shots in the situation he is in isn't as bad as I thought it was actually

Nah, that's Joakim Noah.


Tim Duncan's form wasn't THAT bad.

I forgot he was in New York now. It looks like he's gotten worse as a shooter. I didn't know that was possible.

Crazy how agile he seems for his size. Looks like he could be elite one day.
Watching him, I think sky is the limit.

6 games, 22 minutes per game, he's averaging 19 and 6 with 3 blocks per game.

That's 30/10 and 5 blocks per 36.

There were three 30pt/15 assists games in the NBA last season. Harden has 4 this season. Not sure how good Houston will be, but they'll be fun to watch as Harden accumulates stats.

Also, Curry made 13 of 17 from 3 last night, ho hum.
