    Harden has always been inconsistent even during the RS. The narrative that Harden is consistently good in the regular season is wrong, he still has too many terrible games for a an MVP-caliber superstar. Certainly way more than LeBron, Curry, AD, Durant, etc.

    Harden's ratio of horrible games is akin to Westbrook's, and that's not good.

    Honestly, reading the last like 10 pages of this forum is sad.

    A lot of you guys give up on the team at the first sign of any conflict, or any trouble. You'd think we are down 0-3 just reading the last few pages of this thread.

    The Rockets obviously weren't into this game, Wolves were, and they hit everything and basically got every call.

    If we win game 4 the series is done. The Rockets just have to play desperate, needy, and better.

    Harden's monster first game will not wash out this atrocity. His playoff reputation is likely sealed. The Rockets just look like they have already reached their goal and are ready for the offseason. The disturbing thing is they have looked that way for about a month.

    Do you understand that we are understanding these games under the context of beating the Warriors?

    Seems like they did that for 84 games, and it worked 67 times this year. Should they go ahead and abandon the 3-ball too since they take so many?

    Fouls on rebounds only exist for Houston.

    Come on man. You think Harden's playoff reputation is on the line up 2-0 going into a game 3? Really?

    We are not a championship team yet, we need to play hard night in and night out - the team has still not played a playoff style of effort game.
