    It really is amazing the calls other players get vs Harden.

    Giannis getting 40+ FTs in 2 games and Harden can barely get 1/4 of that.

    He doesn't. Harden needs guidance and perspective and there is none

    Pace just slows to a crawl when James is bringing the ball up. Movement stops. Why does this have to be?

    Two guys all the way in the corners and James falling on a layup...it's no wonder we have zero transition defense.

    Exactly . . ..
    Alot of the reason he does not drive more
    but
    He should shoot the midrange

    Going back to the three is ok . . . but if you do that don't rush
    and hit that ****

    Harden was attacking great early. Now he's fallen back into waiting until 10 seconds to make a move. That's got to stop. Harden is too good to not know that's hurting us.

    Man, I'm loving Shumperts energy right now.

    In the playoffs, Eric Gordon becomes James Harden. And James Harden becomes JR Smith.

    I don't know how the Rockets stay disciplined and don't pop off a flagrant now and then. If they are going to call a phantom foul anyway, might as well get a good shot in

    I'm mad at Harden for not taking that wide open mid range shot. Wide ****ing open.

    He use to do that step back mid-range shot, I wonder why he got rid of it. James refusal to play faster can be our Achilles heel when he isn't making shots. **** man.

    Surely Harden has to hit his shots consistently sooner or later.

    That is why the Rockets don’t even need Harden
