The Rockets will not win the series that way, this team's D is too good when set up, move the ball faster and get early offense. DD
James Harden is the most predictable superstar of all time. Everyone knows what he's going to do and his predictability is exploitable..
Jalen Rose is right. Harden can't be just standing in no man's land when he doesn't have the ball. He's useless there. He needs to move around a bit.
I love james harden but he is becoming something else in the playoffs. Still hes getting to the basket with ease. weird times
Playoff Harden on display. Check out his playoff history. He "shrinks" in the playoffs. But, he is a regular season wonder. Really a shame how predictable he is when the pressure is on.
No he’s not dude. You can’t average an efficient 36 with 7.5 assist being “the most predictable superstar of a all time”, Harden is one of the most diverse offensive players this league has ever seen.
James Harden is showing you why the coaching staff has to have him have the ball . He gets disinterested and mind gets out of the game . Gordon show right now and Paul running the offense . Guess Harden will take a backseat . He better step up !
I don't disagree, but it would be a lot easier to do if we had 4 all stars like the warriors. with less usage I'm sure he'd never stop moving. we ask a lot of him and it shows sometimes. also, in our iso heavy offense, when its Paul or gordon's turn to iso, James running around will get in the way. its just not the strategy the rockets use. some may disagree with the way the rockets play, but that is the strategy and a big reason why there is not a lot of off ball player movement. off ball screens, and PnRs don't work against the warriors switching defense anyway. its a waste of energy. they shut it all down by switching leaving iso ball as the only play that you can get consistently. the rockets have an idea of how to beat the warriors and it works, but the ESPN/ABC crew don't understand it. they think you beat the warriors by playing like the warriors. they say you need more passing and more movement. you will never out play the warriors at their own game and their switching defense won't allow it anyway.
If MDA wanted a change he could easily have Paul handling the ball, but I doubt he makes a change. At this point what we see is what we get. No changes will be made. MDA said it himself, he thinks home court advantage will be the key to playing better. This team just doesn’t have the weapons to keep up. Even if we change coaches it won’t help.
More like what is Chris Paul doing? Should have shot that three, or stopped at twenty feet and shot, rather than drive into a clogged lane as time expires.
