    He should try some open mid range shots.

    It’s hard being a harden fan in the playoffs...the times when you really need him...he chokes. If he played like he did during the reg season, he’d have a ring.

    This will be his label until he proves everyone wrong.

    This is not an over reaction - I’ve seen this movie for 5 years now

    You guys immediately get triggered by the Harden hate, but I think it's time to question his viability in the Playoffs. 9 minutes and still zero points. Aside from game 2, he's looked like a top 20 player if that. Next year, you guys will surely say "he's even better than last year," but his performance in the Playoffs will be the exact same. He's not as great of a shooter as Curry; let's establish that. Yes, he'll get hot towards the beginning of the season, but he always tails off after that. The only way he can improve in the Playoffs is if he can finally expand his shot selection and ditch the "3-or-layup" philosophy. Otherwise, it's clearly easier to shut him down in the Playoffs.

    That will probably be enough to win this game. We will be swept next round with this effort.

    Dude he was standing still with his feet not moving when Capella was being trapped and needed to dump off the ball to a ball handler.

    Rockets look clueless offensively. Again.

    Eric Gordon could be having a fun game all by himself.

    The players should then employ a new strategy.
