There are games where James seems to have a pep in his step and is moving with pace and urgency. I just don't know why he can't feel the need to do that in game three of the Western Conference finals. I just can't explain the James Harden conundrum. Sometimes he just decides to move like a 40 year old 20 year NBA veteran.
I legitimately think he has a mental issue. I’m not even saying that to be mean. He plays like night and day sometimes. And it’s largely tied to him getting fouls. We got the “turnover and then throw hands up confused while not getting back on defense” Harden tonight.
Is that why you call this message board pathetic for fans venting after a 40 pt blowout in the Western Conference finals? You think our star players are infallible. You can't stand criticism of them. Harden played like a geriatric tonight walking everywhere and being flat footed on defense. Deal with it .
Sometimes the effort level is pathetic, the result is pathetic. 41 game gap is too much. We might bounce back and they got short memory. This is a sting.
I’m fine with venting but your guy resenting to name calling our team by names is pathetic. You can say you didn’t like hardens game or effort tonight. You can certainly be upset about the missed layups. But you guys all lack fortitude by immediately yelling and name calling a team you suppos fly root for. Again. It’s pathetic. As a fan, you should root and support not disrespect. you should be ashamed.
The whole team was garbage, and I don’t care it’s just an L or I have to get up in 5 hrs...but James doesn’t show any ****ing effort sometimes. It’s obvious as hell
We were just bizarro rockets tonight. We looked out of sorts allllll game. Soooo many missed layups. No communication defensively. Bad screens. Bad effort. A lot of bad happened tonight. But what went wrong can be fixed. We can rebound better. We can control the rock better. We can defend better. We can finish at the rim better. It’s just a loss
I get that, breh, it's just you can't expect the GSW to play bad every 2nd game. They are that good, esp. in their living room. Can't play worse than in a 41 defeat. Might as well get a close game.
Blaming a 41 point blowout on Harden dribbling is laughably dumb and willfully ignorant. If that’s really honestly what you think then so be it.
