Been of the opinion that the Rockets taking Green over Mobley would be remembered as a huge mistake but I did not foresee Mobley being this productive this early into the season. Kid could really be a monster, thank god he's in the Eastern Conference.

Warriors troll Klay about not being on the NBA Top 76 list… by putting a Klay jersey in his locker with the number 77.

My live reaction to the end of this game was definitely similar, like... "yikes, they're really denying Steph the ball, oh phew he finally got it, but with only—pbbbffffttttt!! friggin' Steph."

I think my ability to analyze plays as they happen has maybe improved as I caught more of the stuff in this video the first time around. So, thanks, Apricot-sensei! But I still have much to learn, especially in the ways of catching the enigmatic Klay "first down" celebration.

I have a question for EA: The way you narrate some of the plays it sounds like you haven't seen them. Just like me, you yell "NO!" when Curry flings up a logo three and then have to yell yes. So, do you not watch in real time? Is the recording we're watching your first view of the play? You don't get to enjoy the game just play out? Or have you already seen it and you're freshly alarmed and amazed each time you see a play?

Gotta admit, Clips play pretty strong defense.

Curry probably makes those shots over 50% of the time in practice so why not launch them in a game? It avoids any chance of a turnover and he has about a 25% chance of making them both which isn't bad for a game they were on track to lose. The Clippers were defending the set plays really well.
