Harden is due for a BIG game in game 6!! Redemption coming.

Harden is going to have to get everyone involved. They are gonna double team him and make the others beat them. Harden can't waste 15 seconds of the shot clock just dribbling he needs to go quickly.

The positive I see with Gordon starting is he don't sit around and waste half the shot clock in iso, he does it quick then either creates a shot or gets others involved.

I just hope Harden has his legs with him because we all think he's due for a great game but he's not really getting much rest, so Idk if he's gonna be any better than game 5.

 

My god I would treasure Game 6 forever, lol

 

Game 4 was with CP3, c'mon now. And Iggy will prolly be back for the Dubs. Let's not skip logic when thinking with optimism.

 

Beautiful. Magic could have put up silly stats in a different situation. If they started him at PF/C for his career and let him post up more. (And hang around the rim for rebounds for fastbreaks)

 

James Starden !!!

 

Go ahead and post your "proof" of Magic's greatness. But according to this thread, Magic wasn't nearly as good as Stephanie Curry.

 

when's the last decent game Harden had in the playoff?

 

3 days ago?

 

Game 4 at the oracle. Played great offense in the first half and then played focused defense in the second half.

 

The truth is nobody ever remembers how much Jordan or Magic or Bird Screwed up. It happened. I mean they didn't win it every year and there was plenty of criticism when they lost. But they erased it by winning a few. And that's all it takes.

 

Harden needs to give a speech like this before the game tomorrow night

 

Actually, the Game 6 pressure is mostly on the Worriers. For the Rockets, including Harden, the worst that can happen is that we totally **** the bed and have to regroup for the winner-take-all Game 7 in Houston.

For the Worriers, though, there's all kinds of pressure. If they don't win, their season AND their dynasty will both end in embarrassing fashion. They'll have lost three games in a row to a team they pretended all year wasn't really a significant threat. Two of those games will have been on their home court where they never lose in the playoffs, and one will have been with one of our big stars not playing.

Those fools can say whatever they want, but they simply can't afford to lose this game. On the other hand, the Rockets are expected to lose it. Hell, nobody at all outside of Houston would surprised in the slightest to see us lose two in a row now. To most people, our season would still be a rousing success.

So who's really got the pressure? The team that can't afford to lose, or the one that's expected to?

 

i think the pressure angle is a wash at this point of the series. it goes both ways. more of a media ploy if anything. the rockets have an opportunity albeit really short handed but its still there. want it? go take it. and obviously on the other side gs the defending champs are at home playing for their season who likely be playing with a ton of energy and will to go back to houston

 

Someone please make a picture of Harden summoning a spirit bomb to drop on GSW

 

He's gonna need to step the **** up offensively or step the **** off. No more of this 19 point bullshit.

 

I know it’s messed up, but in some way it’s perfect CP3 is out. Gives Harden the perfect opportunity to make a statement and I’d say he has less pressure on him. Now if he loses it’s not a big deal. Losing in a game 7 at home would be devastating, but it shouldn’t take anything away from this season.

 

Warriors are going to come out ready to kill - and we're going to find out what James Harden is really made of. Go Rockets!

 

Yop. Harden need to show, aint got cp3 bailing him out.
