I have serious reservations about Harden and his drive or will. He seems to naturally be a very laid back person. Rarely do you ever see him get amped up even. Much less angry. For the long term success of this team I have concerns if this proclivity will hinder us. When we need Harden to step up and take a leadership role of the game he too often defers. Do you think Harden's laid back style is a limitation for the Rockets?
Is this because we're down 20 points? Man calm down the man put his heart for this team to get us to the 2nd round and up 3-0. Chill out
Yea that's a mature response. It's not absurd at all. What put Jordan over the top as a competitor was his competitiveness
He definitely didn't care when he put up 42 and closed out the last game, right? Go jump in the ocean.
We need a secondary ball handler/playmaker that isn't Josh Smith or over 37 years old plain and simple. Aminu on Harden is killer tonight.
I guess my thread titled "harden is a piece of $***" got deleted. I did censor it for what it's worth. Harden is a piece of you know what. How can he just let this game go like that? Is there any benefit to playing an extra game rather than just closing the mavs out tonight? I just don't understand how a team can play with such little focus and fire like this.
If you really believe aminu can neutralize harden, then basically the rockets just lost the series and will lose 4 in a row. I guess Carlisle has finally "figured" it out.
Harden was great in game 3 and the first 2 games. So how do you explain him and the rockets allowing game 4 to just slip away?
That a logical fail. You can put up 42 point on mostly contested shots and still be limited in your competitiveness
I'm not denying what harden has done for the team. But why not go for the kill in game 3 instead of mailing it in to play yet another game?
Yes I'm serious. You care to explain to me why the rockets would just "mail" this game in? If they lose game 4, then they better at least play inspired ball, which they are not. So yeah they're letting a golden opportunity slip through
