    Harden is the one guy that Lebron can't seem to upstage.

    Harden is a beast I don't know why so many don't respect his game.

    He's clearly the 3rd best player in the game at worst.

    This is the bottom line. He went borderline full r****d again and gave the Cavs a chance to win.

    D'Antoni needs to wrestle control from Harden and run plays in crunch time, especially after Harden repeatedly fails in isolation.

    Just shut up and appreciate the win.

    The amount of complaining in game threads after a win is staggering.

    I need one too it's been over 20 years dammit.

    But this guy harden gives me hope.

    But I don't need a championship to see that I'm watching one of the best players to ever play this game called basketball.

    yeah full r****d 35-11-13-5 W.

    he was our best 3 point shooter and already had more than 11 assists. so who do you want to hold on to the ball? EGO with his zero assists and 5 turnovers?

    I want a championship, but if you care what 'other people think' which I never do, that's what he needs, playoff success (title)

    Paul will help that a lot. I'll be glad when he's back on the court.

    This is a great win for the good guys however MDA reverted back to his 7 samurais uber fail strategy. Ariza played 42 mins like wtf was that?! This is the real reason why MDA teams akways do great in the regular season but fade in the playoffs, thhey are too worn by post season.

    MDA needs to play 8 guys with significant pt at the minimum every game, probably part of the reason Harden went full r****d at the end was he was tired AF.

    That lob to Capela after the scramble was quite smart

    problem is LMM is injured. Morey should have called ZQi back from the dleague. Is troy williams even with the team?

    I don't want anyone to necessarily "hold on to the ball". That is my point. I want them to run a set play that has a couple of options other than a tired Harden heave that has no chance of going in.

    D'Antoni deserves some blame for not resting Harden in the 4th, which is one reason why only Clint Capela scored over the last 8 minutes of the game.
