    For the ove of God , someone tell hartenstein to shoot some 3's. 1) its the only way he will ever get real pt. 2) his inside game kinda sucks, just shoot the open shot. Not like mda gonna pull him now, hes got 12 min to do whatever he wants.

    Let's not limit it to just defense. There's also offense, rebounding, and general hustle.

    Okay. Harden is one dimensional and allows defenses to expend less energy because of the style of offense Harden forces.

    As usual, the Rockets proving that their critics are right. Amazing, just amazing.

    Difference being, they're helping every single time. He has virtually no space. We're getting wide open looks, but they haven't hit their shots.

    If Westbrick was playing, it would be a tie game

    Sure, but that just means the question applies more than once.

    New system is built around Westbrook, who is not playing. But that's no excuse for the defense being so bad.

    This is the world we live in after turning over 75% of our 60 win would-be championship team.

    The Rockets are not a very good basketball team. Doesn't matter how you slice it. Go big, go small, go fat, go skinny. Shoot 3s, shoot, 2,s. They just don't play defense and they don't try every night. It's simple really. Again I point the finger at the star player and the head coach. Can't have that.
