    He’s not McGrady so I’m not worried

    Harden will have the rare game 6 night here and there as well, and CP3 will cover for him when that happens.

    Swiss cheese model, baby. We’re maximizing our chances to succeed with two superstars here. Fret not.

    Hate to say it but I think it was feeling the nerves. Since when has he had such a legit shot at winning it all, plus he knows his clock is ticking something fierce. Good news is that I don't think this wave of anxiety will last. Bad news is who knows when it will kick back in down the road

    I pretty much ignored a majority of his mistakes but that final one nearly gave me a heart attack!

    Aint worried about him because am positive he'll settle down game 2 and get his **** together, the dude is a veteran and will find his way out of it.

    He didn't play much last few weeks that's why he is rusty. Level of competition got up and he will adjust. And while everyone was talkin smack about playing Harden and he looks fresh and in rhythm :) Jimmy played bad too and he will improve too. KAT will get better with series. Wiggins will still be bad.

    he was hesitant and very passive making difficult forceful passes. We need Cp3 that won us 16 straight games closing them with midrange jumpers.

    He had a bad game it happens. When’s the last time Paul had more TO’s than assists?

    I’m sure CP3 will bounce back next game. He wants to advance as bad as anyone, plus his real reason for being here is for that one game Harden checks out mentally. If he steps up then, it’s all been worth it.

    Rockets haven't exactly playing great for the last month or so, I'm just hoping to see the ball movement and good outside shooters again. Iso ball won't win it all.

    Team effort paid off, but bubble wrap still all over CP3. Next game, definitely will be better.

    I don't have a problem with them letting them play as long as it is called the same for both teams. There where a few missed calls on both teams. I'm just tired of them calling a foul on the floor when Harden is actually shooting. Anyone else in the N.B.A get those 3 shots in that situation just not Harden.
