    Oh yeah?

    We're gonna do the same to Mitchell and then we all have to sit there and watch Crowder and Ryno duke it out brick after brick.

    I hope you enjoy that Paul Nipple Pierce!

    Jeez, Paul Pierce sounds like he is tired of watching Harden play basketball.

    Harden loves to play Utah. Did these guys not watch the regular season?

    Diddo on what @ghettocheeze said.

    And Harden will still put Gobert and Favors on skates. Shoot over them with a mid-range. Rockets by 5 games.

    Thunder would have been more of a challenge....if the Thunder had played with half a brain.

    Get the ball outta James's hands & allow CP to carve up the defense by finding open shooters? If this is the Jazz way of beating us this series won't be close

    Some of the guys who are hired as analysts these days, LOL

    I still laugh about the ESPN coverage I saw this season at some point with Nate Robinson, Derek Fisher, and Brent Barry.

    Does he mean double team Harden? The Jazz did that in Game 1. Sometimes it worked. Other times, he'd find the open man and they'd get either a dunk or 3-pointer.

    Trapping him at halfcourt to slow him down is another option, but it's risky. Beat the trap and again there'll be someone open either under the basket or outside the 3-point line.

    James Harden is a Better Guard that is surpassing Paul Pierce, and Paul is looking Jealous Honestly, Paul Pierce is one dimensional Shoot and Attack the rim, James Harden is carrying the team with his Shooting, Passing, Ball Handling, Rebounding, Running the Offense, Playing Excellent Defense in the Post, Blocking Shots.

    Houston has the most sensitive and the whiniest fanbase in the NBA. I see nothing wrong with what he said here. The Rockets struggle most when Harden is trapped early and MDA better be prepared.
