    Impossible when Harden is standing at the top of the key with his man waiting to get the ball back if Anderson doesn't shoot the 3.

    The Harden worshipers can't like this.

    I'll give a bone though, Orlando is dreadful and is missing makeable shots.

    In 2015 the Indiana Pacers had

    CJ Miles, Myles Turner
    CJ Watson
    Solomon Hill
    Jordan Hill
    George Hill
    Paul George

    That was insane

    That's how they're gonna have to win with him out. Become more defensive-minded.

    Right? I'm wondering what these people are watching? Are they closet Orlando fans or maybe just hate the Rox?

    Will be interesting if we do hold a lead at the half. Some criticism when we have blown leads is Harden playing lazy and complacent. I think the different pace with CP3 at the point should help with this a bit.

    There's better off the ball movement but it's still reliant on the point penetrating and collapsing the D. Would be nice to have plan B and get guys open off screens and movement other than the pnr.

    Rockets fans love winning games. Period.

    The pain of harden being gone will be felt when our garbage 2nd unit is in the game.

    The Brewers goat guy is the absolute worst/best depending on which way you look at it. No matter what harden is doing, even if he isn't in the game or on the injury list EVERY single post is a novel bashing harden

    Black needs to be main backup to Capela. Black has his deficits but imo his deficits aren't as bad as Nene at this point.
