    lol... looking at the stats, the only player without an assist is Beverley. Even Capela has an assist. Howard has 2.

    With Harden back to his normal self and Lawson facilitating, it looks like we actually have a real offense. Spacing, movement, open looks, a quick but controlled pace... It's all there. Less turnovers too. What the hell am I watching?!

    Harden's jumper seems short on most attempts, he needs to work on his legs in the training room. Tired/rusty legs= short jumpers.

    Lawson is a very good distributor... Understands pace and protects the ball.

    It's more challenging to play with no PFs at all.

    He can't shoot very well and it kills the spacing, so he'd rather spread the floor with Ariza at the 4.

    if harden doesn't have the ball he can't get into rhythm.

    It's sad that we only have 1 legitimate guy that can grasp the concept of protecting the ball. Less tos = better chance to win its not hard lol

    What does us having 1 victory have to do with Harden's stats nose diving if Lawson controls the ball?

    I actually think they will go up. He'll definitely be more efficient. Harden and Howard by all accounts WANT Ty to be Ty. He's getting them open looks.

    No doubt about that. His ankle injury in the off season,has been a pretty big setback. Hopefully soon, he will be back to his best.

    Great to see that harden can sit on the Bench for longer periods like tonight with Lawson on the floor

    And he'll have it whenever Ty hits the bench.

    He had a beautiful catch and shoot three after the ball touched four other pairs of hands.

    Rockets need more of that.
