    0 point made while the other side made 14 has a lot to do with shooting. Trust me.

    Harden was sitting on the bench. it is hard to take shots from the bench.

    Now THAT was an offensive foul. Should've been the first one called tonight.

    In other news, Harden is MVP.

    We're starting to look a little better with the starters out there. We still have time to get going. They've lost 5 in a row, so they're not going to be playing this practically flawless ball for a full game.

    I mean...not really? Scored 30 in the 1st. Probably will have well over 50 this half. Pretty solid.

    The defense however will give up 120+ tonight. That is the problem.

    Harden too much facilitating.

    Just go super saiyan dude. They're ready for your outlets. Have been for a few games now.

    These guys are on a 5 game losing streak... They're desperate.

    We lose if we don't match their intensity.

    Again, this has nothing to do with our 3 points shooting. When you have Brewer and Dekker taking our 3 points shots, it's an issue of playmaking and matchups.

    I mean when harden is playing the best D by far you've got a problem.

    We have arguably the worst interior defense in the League. Capela's the only big on our roster worth a damn in that aspect of the game.

    Harden's been trapped on every possession.

    As I say this another bad 3...

    The problem with it is that we are predictable and the defense sags off, is able to run their fast break better and clog the paint. The defense is atrocious, but we give up runs like this all the time. Remember games where we're up 20 and the lead disappears? This is that minus us being hot on the offensive end.

    They can't possibly stay this got. They'll regress to their mean or slightly above
