    And Capela should keep his scrub mouth shut. Soft!

    Harden clearly chicken out with 2 mins to go, and he hid behind defender in the paint and had Gordon to push the ball.

    Agreed, great player but doesn't have the killer instinct in the playoffs. Unload him while we still can.

    That Harden push late for the offensive foul is just inexplicable. It's like he wanted to give it away. Even if there was acting, it was a clear push with arm motion. SO DUMB.

    by the way, this is turnover that lead to the killer momentum to GS.

    ****, i hate to say it. Steph was fouled in that 3pt. That little fuc*** and Klay are legit.

    This game was lost in the first half when we squandered a chance for a dominant lead by letting them out rebound us and punk us with their scrub bench warmers. Pathetic. I’m not getting my hopes up for next year.

    Harden can't lead a team to a championship like Dream or MJ. we need to find a real leader. Harden is the second option at best.

    This is not Harden's fault. Capela talked all that shiz and cost us 30 points this series, and CP decided to finally show up. No one except Tucker played with Heart this game. They killed us with screens at the end and we turned to our favorite play iso dribble dribble jack up, and that's on coaching. Daryl Morey's run as a GM has to end. He can study the data all he wants but not using half the floor to score will not get you anywhere. This style of basketball has never won a championship and never will. GS is playing Chess and we're playing checkers, all while wasting the prime years of a HOF player.

    So freaking stupid to be talking about Harden. The rest of the team is complete trash. Morey is the one to blame for not surrounding him with quality players. Morey is the one that let Ariza leave and couldn’t sign a quality SF to replace him. Do you guys really think you can run a team out on the court with a bunch of smallish guards and play against the big boys? Look at how many times they got second chance points and easy layups because they were playing much bigger players. Morey is the one that paid Paul $160 million when he’s on the down side if his career. Jesus, just look st the rest of the team with the exception of Tucker. Look at Gerald Green jacking up stupid off-balance 3’s and getting shoved around the paint. Look at how Capela was paralyzed with the balm in his hands and getting shoved around by Draymond Green. I actually think Gordon is a good shooter but his ball handling and passing is horrible.

    No, Morey is to blame for hiring MDA and putting this team together. Seriously ask yourself if you thought this team could win a championship when we sign Camello Anthony and then cut him. Ask yourself if you thought house could come in and fill that position. What did Morey do? Oh yeah he went out and signed a couple of G league point guards that never even saw the court in the playoffs. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!

    That HOF wouldn't have had his prime years wasted if he had actually stepped up in the 4th qtr of Game 5 and 6.
