    Seriously. A great game and a win at Whoracle could change a lot of the negative perceptions of Harden. He's gotta do it, though.

    It doesn't matter. People will still come up with reasons to complain about him.

    Harden alone is not nearly enough. He has to play big and then we need guys like EG, Green, CC all be able play above and beyond.

    I’m expecting Harden to get 40 points. He can’t keep missing.

    This game will blow away any type of Playoff criticism against Harden if he turns in the game of his life and closes out the defending champions on their home court.

    Our success was not just CP3-related. (I do realize how crucially important he is/ has been)

    Thus, we have an opportunity for the roster to expand a bit and win by committee with All players stepping up and taking game 6.

    Worriers are going to have a ton of pressure, even playing at home so I expect mistakes and missed shots.

    I can see them hitting everything and winning game 6 but I'm hoping that's a bunch of BS.

    I hope we steal game 6 and win series and punch tickets to NBA FINALS!

    This is Harden's career defining game. Game 6, on the road against the defending champs...win it and go to the NBA finals!

    Play your heart out Jimmy. We need you.

    Didn't we WIN Game 4? Which was also on the road?

    Wouldn't that prove that we CAN start off like game 4 and win? Not saying it would be easy, but... :confused:

    I don't want to set any benchmarks about points or triple doubles etc ....

    What James has to do is LEAD us to the win.

    Certainly making his shots will help , certainly limiting mistakes will help . But , we've already seen in this series ... it's about focus and mental toughness and poise .

    If we weather the storms and stay locked in then we can be in a position to win it at the end. If we win it doesn't matter whether James has 40 or 20 . He will have been on the floor for 40 minutes and will have contributed a lot .

    Alternatively, I would love it if we blew them out .
