    Definitely, Harden has been wetting the bed on defense last few minutes. Then pointing at other guys for their 'mistakes'. **** this game.

    That’s why you play tight defense all the way until the end. The Rockets letting Chris Paul have that open layup was just stupid because the game was far from over.

    Dangerous pass by Gordon, looked like he wanted to shoot a 3 and then changed his mind.

    Take Harden out for this defensive possesion because he’s a liability with 5 fouls. They’re attacking him with the penetration

    Are we going to pretend that opposing teams didn't try to deny Kobe the ball on inbound clutch plays? Of course they ****ing did. Not Lobe ran to catch the ball.

    Harden just gives up.
