    The 17-18 Rockets team is the only team from the Harden era that had a lot of heart, and that's why they got to where they did, despite the talent differences. Since then, they've been soft, low-IQ, and lacking a lot of heart.

    ok guys so point of good n bad this season. n things we can do to get better

    1. tucker and clint for the most part has been good. clint 20 20s is an allstar in my book so far

    2. mike still cant coach(make adjustments)

    3 harden is a workhorse in a good way

    4. but I think harden now has to make it a point to get russ going honest. I now russ a mvp. but alot of of problems is they not firing together enough. harden has to come off the ball more.

    4. play Clemens more if we bricking 3s

    5. thank is a waste of a roster spot

    6.thinknof it was ariza or iggy in that thabo role.

    7. I hope ego come back on fire.

    8. still alot of season left. he have the pieces for the most part

    I don't think Gordon helps, he has been inconsistent, hot one day and ice cold the next.....

    It is just a 3 game losing streak following an eight game winning one, no need to call out people. Stay civil.

    j/k do what you want.

    Your bench scoring only 11 of your 123 points is just hilarious to me for some reason reading it.

    I'd actually argue that the 18/19 team was of the same heart and vigor, too. Injuries derailed them for much of the first half of the season, but they got it together and played well to finish the season. Unfortunately, a difference in philosophies came to the forefront at the most inopportune of times, which stymied the expected success in the playoffs.

    15-ish games into the season, too. What's this going to look like in March or April if they're dragging ass now?

    Hart, Clemons, Clark: are they that bad he can't play any of them?

    I'd say the only player who has is Lebron. But yeah, the way Harden gets double teamed is quite sad at times. But I understand why they do it.

    Comments more appropriate for his brick fest last game. He shot 8-20 from the field today, and I want to say 2-5 from 3.. Meh, but what do you want from the guy? He's not going to turn into Pistol Pete at this point of his career.

    Is a lot of the negative plus/minus coming from his defense, or lack thereof?
