Nope you are wrong on this one. Gordon may not be shooting well but he is still a good choice for this shot.
The most disappointing thing about Capela is his rebounding and defense. It's been well below average this season.
And house was 2 for 3. Ive seen Gordon play this season. And I know he shoots .280 from 3 on 8 3s a game. That’s by far the worst. Good play but replace Gordon with someone else and Nene with a shooter. They just trying so hard for Gordon to “have fun”
I dont care if he did hit that previous one, I'm not letting a guy that's shooting 29% take the last 3... Gordon is a volume brick layer
Great play call. I'm ok with Harden not taking the hero shot. His wrist was bothering him. His eye was swollen. I'm sure he was feeling a bit gassed. And they were double teaming him, and even triple teaming him, HARD at the end of the game. Pass was slightly off but man I wish ego could have made that not just for the win but his confidence. Surprised Capela got benched to end the game. He must have been really messing up rotations and/or bad communication.
Imagine giving up 20 offensive rebounds and losing by 2 points. I wish we had a center with a more reliable motor than Capela. I want to give more minutes to Nene but he's old. Chriss or Hartenstein might need to get at least 5 minutes.
Harden made the right choice at the end. It doesn't matter if Gordon is shooting well or not this season, he was wide open.
We out rebounded simply because they are better and longer athletes. It's hilarious seeing someone like Jones jr just jump straight up over someone like Gordon and Tucker for rebounds. Whiteside got like 3 offensive rebounds just by putting his arms up and tip toeing
B2B games are tough plus when your bench can only score 20 and PGs only score 7 pts total pts is tough to get a W especially on the road. Oh well on to the home stand. Go Rockets!
People who expect anything other than a first round exit this year are going to be disappointed. Since Morey refuses to do ANYTHING after failing on acquiring Butler, we're going to struggle all year to maintain a playoff seed with how strong the West is this year. Harden is going to break down eventually with how much load he has to carry night in and out.
And Free throws Stupid piece of shiit Capela. Can't even make 1 of 2 critical fts. Harden missed a critical ft.
tucker was horrendous . Harden had a off shooting night from inside the 3 pt line. Green was terrible and we still could have won.the offensive rebounding killed us. Mostly due to clint
For all his terrible play, one made 3 would have put us half a game out of the 4th seed and all would have been forgiven, but his **** continues and we are back at 9 seed. Gordon had a decent game tonight by the way.
He can't really make layups, either. The only time he's comfortable in the paint is off a pick and roll or from an alley.
