    no surprise we cut the deficit a bit when capela sits. EVEN with ryno in. granted they weren't exactly great possessions but clint just forces us into bad sets because pick and roll is our only option and when he rolls into the paint, nothing good comes out of it if they take it away. CLINT only works if you have a defensive sieve guarding the pick and roll (kanter) and/or a stretch 4 to get ppl out the paint.

    Harden is not that good at basketball people sorry to say.. building a brick house and doesn't show up in the big time.

    Why walk it up the court with the clock going down?

    ARE YOU ****ING KIDDING? Capela was bad, but Harden has been AWFUL this game, at some point one of his teamates needs to tell him to play D and stop passing to the other team.

    He is looking more and more like Tmac every day, a mentally weak player.

    It's pretty sad I have more faith defensively having Ryno at the 5 than Capela.

    Well, if we win this series, we'll know how to deal with a team that's packing the paint.

    Maybe B'holic was right about Capela, guys. Even Harden had to ask the coach to bench him.

    Harden from G1-3, and this game is already over. Part of it is just trash play from him, but Roberson has played incredible defense. Dude has easily been the OKC MVP.

    good defense in that quarter, especially when Mike went away from that starting lineup

    No awareness from Harden on what time it is on the clock just walking it up. That rebound he let get away...that's not Roberson defense...he just doesn't have his head in the game.

    Harden looks like ass. Picked a great time to have his worst game of the season. That last possesion 10 seconds left and just lollygags it up leading to no time for a shot.

    It's Moody Harden. When he doesn't get foul calls, he mentally quits. He did this in the Portland series 3 years ago.

    Yeah his head isn't into it. Needs to sit and think about what he hasn't done.
