    I don't care what the analytics say, I firmly stand behind more MIDRANGE HARDEN.

    So we're doing this again... absolving him of his terrible shooting yet again, yeah keep doing that man, it's not like he's shooting 37% for the playoffs or anything

    The league is going to milk this series for everything its worth. Its really more compelling than any other series that will be played this year. We got to be patient they are going to make sure every game is tight.

    We should give Faried a run

    This is a better matchup for him

    Rockets brought it back within 2. Refs will now proceed to be all Warriors to held give them some cushion .

    James needs to shoot that mid-range shot more often instead of that floater. Stop and Pop.

    can't go by FG% only. he's a low FG% player. every game would be a crap game for him if that's how you're judging.

    he's got more points than FGAs. more than 1 point per shot is a solid offense. plus the defense and passing. no dumb turnovers. I think he's having a good game.

    Not watching the game are you? How many times has he been undercut on his 3's and not called? How many times has he been hacked in the lane without getting the call? GTFOH

    As soon as we attack mid range, they’ll have to switch up defensive tactics, opening up the lob and other offensive options. It’s just so obvious.

    Right, because they flip the switch on him.

    All during the Utah series they would not call fouls when he drove the lane. Letting them abuse him in the paint and now that GSW is letting him step back they won't call fouls on his jumper.

    he is BIG time and the proof is in the fact that the NBA rigged this game against him

    PJ is scoreless, but has a +10 while on the court

    If Capela is going to play so poorly tonight I'd just assume give Manimal some time. At least we can count on him to get boards.

    Are you kidding me? He's done a wonderful job containing Durant. If it weren't for Tucker, KD would have easily had 30-35 points on us already

    Durant blatantly did it on a turn aroind to make room. They should call it both way then.

    lol

    I guess you didn't read my earlier posts mentioning quite a few times about Harden taking a bad shot, or missing a key shot. Just because I point out an obvious fact doesn't mean I'm absolving him of anything.
