    Saving him for a trade or waiver.

    No fun in waiving an injured player.

    Both Grizz and Rockets look a little winded. Very high scoring and fast paced 1st half.

    Remember that thread I made about Harden shooting WAY worse without Westbrook?

    Add another game to the list.

    The kid’s 21. Playing good minutes in a back to back would give him a boner!

    Typical short rotation by MDA has something to do with that.

    The Rockets have scored less points in every quarter because they are f-ing exhausted. MDA running a 6.5 man rotation is criminal in 2020. It's just miserable to see this fool make the same mistakes over and over again.

    Is it more clear why?

    Dantoni's system with the Rockets is iso ball with no movement. That doesn't work well for non elite scorers.

    Dantoni is the opposite in terms of maximizing talent. He minimizes it by forcing no spectacular scorers breaking down defenses by themselves to generate open looks rather than off ball movement.

    That's why this team falls apart without Harden.

    There is no offensive system outside of spectacular guards breaking down the defense with their dribble.
