    Yeah but how many of those misses are because of going for the foul? Disgusting.

    Could have been a 50+ night EASILY

    The scary and frustrating thing about that is he can play better... This knucklehead has only scratched the surface but he needs to be told to go full out.

    As a team, it's sad that we need him to score so much to win. Esp looking back at alot of the wins we scraped by this season so far.

    As an individual, the method in which he scores that amount is difficult to watch. Nothing but iso ball. And it seems like more than any other season he dribbles too much and causes a turnover off his own feet or something =/
    I guess that's also a team problem since there isn't any movement.

    11-12 FT's didn't help any? Getting fouls on their big men doesn't help?

    FTA's are usually a pretty telling statistic on whether you've got a go-to player. Ungrateful.

    pretty much the result of not having a true PG.

    JMO...but I believe you have it. A LOT of time it seems we are standing around watching and waiting for him to do something.

    I'm really happy we won but 4 shots for DH and those were putback attempts with 3-4 Wizards crashing the boards. I don't get our offense. Even under KM we had more variety. Now it's contested ISO's that are crazy obvious. Nobody is under the basket for an offensive board. We won the game tonight on pure individual talent.

    Oh, and when James does try to distribute the ball, the others often can't seem to finish. Disappointed that TL has not helped to speak of.

    Howard is broken. He even can't catch ball now.

    I just got back from the game, and I got Jason Terry's headband as a souvenir!

    If DMO gets back to how he was playing last year then I'd rather see Howard come off the bench when he's having nights like this

    This team is going nowhere unless they commit to playing team ball on both offense and defense.

    That was flat out ugly, we can't rely so much on Harden that is not a winning strategy when teams shut him down or double him, all the other guys are busy standing around and we die on the vine.

    Not impressed at all.

    Harden shot the ball amazing tonight, just wish he didn't turn it over so damn much. 7 turnovers.

    Same for Beverley, he knocked down like 4 3's but had 5 turnovers.
