Capela has far the best PIE of the team and he was almost not playing in the second half. Stupid McHale! http://stats.nba.com/team/#!/1610612745/players/advanced/
Agree to an extent: but you can say the same about any elite player? Season opener, Davis couldn't hit a jumper, guess what? His lack of offensive polish was exposed. Just brick after brick. Limited post game. LeBron's offensive game is exceptionally one dimensional as well. No mid range game? Incorrect. And he did move off ball in OKC. He should definitely look to develop a post game.

No sir I disagree. We need TY to run the point and set up the offense. Having him spotting up should be situational and that's it. We need Harden to come off picks and slash/cut to the basket. Now I'm not saying take all the ball handling from him, but this Iso/jack up Harden offense needs to stop asap. Ball movement is the KEY, as we seen plenty of time over the course of Harden career here in Houston. It defeats the purpose of bring in a True PG if we're going to use him as a spot up shooter. I think Lawson is confused about his role on this team. McHale needs to let him know he's the PG and not Harden. Run the offense and play your game.
Davis had 1 bad game not three. He followed that bad performance with a very good one. Lebron has his faults but he's not shooting the ball on the level of Harden right now. And when his J is not going, he continues to attack the rim and get others involve. The ball doesn't become highly sticky in his hands.
Yeah man McHale is horrible. If I were him I would have tossed something. LOL they went away from what was working in the 1st half. Very frustrating and confusing Cash.
what if the open look is jacking up a 3 when 2 seconds runs off the clock? that is poor basketball. I think you need to reword your conclusions.
True about Davis, but I think you are being a little kind to LeBron. He can be on the stickiest players in the league, there's plenty of possessions where he dribbles the ball out the air and jacks up a step back brick.
I can't even imagine what's going on right now. I see them play and they're still trying to FORCE Dwight to post up. Dwight, let it go! You can be an awesome 2nd option, but on offensive rebounds. Why would a rebound machine like Dwight not be okay with this? No, he let's the media get to his head and demands touches. This is a reason to dislike Dwight. Kid has no one to prove anything to but himself, but instead he lets the media dictate. Sad to see, really. So much potential with this team, and it can get pissed down the toilet because of Howard not being mature enough to accept a role that i call "SuperRolePlayer." It's not that complicated, folks.
As far as Harden, he's settling. His strength is always his weakness. Shot not falling? Shoot team out of momentum and game. Not calling fouls on drives??? Keep driving anyways. Where's the variety??????? This or that. If you truly will let our point guard be a point guard, then do that. You can't, though, because you simply are used to being a tweener. Sad to say it. OKC knew what they were doing, they were just cheap about it. James needs to be more like Kobe and less like....Nobe? (Idk, wanted to end on a joke).

Him being in an out of the lineup all year will keep him looking terrible IMO. Everything about this team is so frustrating smh.
