    Harden just needs that elixir! You know what I'm talking about.. Ciroc!

    Another terrible contract like Joakim Noah or Chandler Parsons.

    If James plays he’s just going to half ass it out there like he has been since he first got hurt. He doesn’t even try to play D now.

    Harden needs to sit at least three games. Not that I want him to be out, but he has to get some rest and come back at as close to full strength as possible.

    Cp3 late game execution is a beauty to watch. Constantly taking advantage of mismatches and making the right plays at the right time. Harden can learn a lot from CP3. Just because you can make tough 3s doesn't mean you should continuously settle for them. Especially in crunch time of a close game where every possession is important.

    Drop 40, then hookup with shorty.

    Any win is a good win until this team pulls out of it's dead zone.

    The focus and effort of this team are both very poor right now.

    It's painful watching him play perimeter D.

    Agreed. The Boston game still pissed me off. Harden must defer to Paul in crunch time.

    That was a dangerous play by the way. Could have easily been 3 free throws. Kuzma was in a really awkward position PJ should have just put his hands up.

    Sometimes it's all about matchups and they seem to match up quite well against us

    I hope the boston thing was an anomaly caused by injury. I haven't seen Harden play that bad since 2014 days when he would just iso for 18 seconds and either launch a bad shot or pass to a teammate for a contested, clock dwindling heave from 3.
