    Early on, James kept getting hacked and he didn’t get calls. That’s part of the reason his numbers look bad.

    Harden had so many haters but he made the correct call, stop bricking shots and start creating for others, get your bearings back and then take over in the 4rth. It shows his growth and maturation as a bball player truly one of the greats.

    imo CP3 allowed us to keep the scoring rhythm through out the game in order to keep it a close game. Tucker with some critical rebounds at the end which ultimately won the game. Harden had an awful game. 3-20, a bunch of silly turnovers. This shows he isn't mentally tough in playoff situations. Jazz are a tough home team but Harden really needs to get it together. To be fair it seemed the refs gave the Jazz the green light to hammer Harden and not get any calls. Still, 3-20. I hope he figures out a way to get away from that dark cloud above his head in tense scenarios like tonight. Happy about the win either way.

    Just a lot of insightful, well spoken stuff. Especially noteworthy was him pointing out that the Jazz shot really poorly in the first couple games, but they shot well tonight. I think that's flown under the radar in the glow of the first two wins.

    There's no way Harden is shooting that horribly again. As Harden just said in that interview, he normally makes most of the shots he missed..... it just didn't fall for him. I expect a much better shooting performance next game.

    Another game where last year's team probably chokes this one away.

    Lot of grit the Rockets showed. Like Harden said, "character" is why they won this tonight.

    Utah didn't win this one. They would be 0:7 if we were going to match up 7 times.

    BTW, take it easy, brother Harden.

    For real. After Snyder got the T everything went Utah’s way. Then the fourth that foul on Gordon was nothing and ball don’t lie when Mitchell was wide open
