Can't fault him for being frustrated. That was an agonizing and disappointing loss. Very similar to the ambush by Doncic and the Mavs. I thought we had them put away both at the end of the 4Q and in OT. Time to get past this and get ready for the next game. Harden has a huge cross to bear with this team. He can only do so much.
When you drop a season high of 58 points (and your second 50+ point effort in as many games) yet still lose to a mediocre, barely above .500, Eastern Conference squad and again STILL lose... I would be frustrated as f**k too! It's all about getting back to full health. I don't think that All-Star break can come any sooner for this Rockets team.
Very worried about the roster. Morey needs to be proactive. Cant count on CP3 to be healthy and available. Very thin roster; its a fundamental flaw, even going into the season. Morey's job is to fix it.
We choked on defensive end last night in regulation & OT... But can we please get Harden some real ****ing healthy body that can ball??? James Annis, is probably the biggest bust signing we have.. Idiot comes back from injuries for a few days and lacerates his calf at home... Mother****er has one job!! Not saying we need him to win the game.. but when we're beyond short handed we definitely don't need dumb injuries like his.
actually this reminded me of the playoff game we played at GS a few years ago, i think it was the game 2 where an angry harden exited the court and toppled over something in the hall there on the way to the lockerroom. and i wouldn't blame him at all for being pissed, the guy is giving everything on the court while management **** around trying to save $0.80 on value meals
This simply cannot go on for another month. A trade for COMPETENT NBA players has to be made within the next few days, otherwise Harden is going to break down completely. It's also time for this medical staff to give us a REAL timetable on CP3. No more bullshit.
I actually think he handled the loss quite well! He did his part and carried the team as far as humanly possible. He knows he has an extremely thin roster around him, you can only ask so much from the recycle bin! I truly, honestly, desperately hope that he doesn’t injure himself from all the extra load/minutes that he’s having to carry! If this was Lebrons team, he would’ve already cried out to the media about how he can’t do it all by himself despite being the “Greatest Basketball Player” ever! I truly blame Forgetta, despite owning several casinos, he hasn’t learned when it’s time to go ALL IN! Harden has elevated his game to historic, never before seen levels,unfortunately his entourage of nomads leaves a LOT to be desired!! In hindsight, I’m starting to think the CP3 signing was fools gold! Yes, he can definitely be the difference maker in a Championship Team, unfortunately we’re getting him at the end of his career when his body is showing major signs of wear/tear... Go Rockets!!! ....... ....... .......
I'd be frustrated too. This season is starting to feel like Westbrook's MVP season. Not Harden's fault, though. He's just trying to win. And getting no help.
Huh. At least he lost the gut. I guess scoring 50+ every game helps one lose the beer belly from the strip clubs.
You would be correct if Westbrook was down 4 of his 5 best players rather than just tanking a healthy team. But you are not correct
