Yeah, I just rewatched that play as well, his foot was on the line for sure. I'm surprised the refs didn't check that, the Rockets coaching staff should have been pleading for them to go look at the replay video.
How did Harden make the playoffs his first year here but we couldn't do it this year? That team was much worse than this
Me either.... start with cutting out your cancer and put 22 mil to much better use. He's not alone...there are others but he is the most obvious. He is no longer a difference maker. First we heard that he didn't get going good until the playoffs. It is more than possible there may not be a playoffs this year. Give me anything but don't give me a quitter.
I think Lin with his new gained maturity could do better than Harden with this roster. And I'm not joking. He wouldn't score as much but his way better effort, defense, and play making would have the Rockets at a better position.
I'm really starting to believe that Les and Morey gave up on this season as soon as they chose JB. I think they were already looking at the offseason after hearing about how our camp went and all the injuries and starting the season with 3 blowout loses.
Obviously trolling. I'm not a big Harden fan at all, but objectively you can say the problem with this roster is not one single player. It's a collective lack of passion for the game.
Wow now....I'm definitely NOT seeing that. Take away Harden and this team has a good 10-12 less wins. REALLY. And yes, he has flaws, but he IS a game changer.
This team made the Western Conference Finals last season. THIS TEAM MADE THE WESTERN CONFERENCE FINALS LAST SEASON.
Once the team decided to go perimeter oriented a year ago when Howard returned, you could see this coming. Especially if losses were piling like they are this season. That just adds more salt to the wound. The HH experiment had its peak. This team is just incredibly flawed and personnel changes need to be made
His playmaking and less turnovers along with heart and defense would utilize the the team way better than Harden ever could. That more than makes up for Harden's scoring. It's just a fact when you really consider the situation.
