    Worried we still haven't really found consistent counter moves to the Harden double as soon has he passes half court.

    Ideally yes. Hopefully Russ can make the right reads going forward.

    I have 1 wish:

    For Westbrook to drive to the hoop every single time and never settle for a jump shot or a 3.

    Please basketball gods... please.

    Coaches can say whatever he wants. Action speaks louder than words. Harden is a ball handler/playmaker that defends mostly PFs on defense.

    can we get harden involved in the offense instead of just passing out of the double team? like maybe rus rus point and get harden some off ball movement?

    its harder to double someone when you don't know where they will catch the ball. he might actually be able to get some shots up.

    If Mavs miss a three it's a stupid foul called... frustrating.

    I just don't understand what the defensive game plan is. The Mavs are open every shot.
