    Great game by Westbrook. Just a great performance.

    Harden gets so much relentless hate on CFans when he has a bad shooting night.

    And we wonder why he doesn't get love from casuals and the national media

    They like scapegoating on here.

    Once Harden gets going again, this team should be great even with flawed roster.

    Okay. So name a place that is more favorable to Harden? Even the r/rockets subreddit is more critical of Harden than the GARM.

    A Westbrook masterpiece...

    His postup is something I can see allowing him to age somewhat gracefully. He has some serious skills on the block.

    People are getting Hartenstein syndrome the way they got House syndrome last year. Whoever the next guy up is that isn't playing - that's the key to turning it around!

    How about we just accept that the roster is flawed. It's two rotation forwards away. We need some wings that can make some FREAKIN open shots!

    Harden gets the most bullshit foul calls called on him.

    I love Harden! But it’s not about a bad shooting night! It’s just bad decision making to keep taking bad 3s when your 1-14 from 3. Drive it to the basket!

    It all starts with "fans" like you chow.

    I saw you leading the Lebron MVP chants last game.

    No it’s deserved to a certain degree and your star player should be held to a high standard.

    Harden is not getting criticized for missing three-point shots. He’s getting criticized for failing to adjust his shot selection when he’s not making three-point shots.

    It's always the way. Even if he's shooting awful, he's still getting us rebounds, assists and a lot of points.

    Harden continues to stupidly shoot 3’s when he is not hitting anything.
