    Now Harden only has 17 points on 7 shots and 7 assists in 15 minutes.... so I hope everyone makes sure that Dort continued to be labeled the Harden slayer.... James really needs to work on some other moves if he wants to be a great scorer.

    Dort should have 4 fouls the way he cleared out RoCo. But they probably won't call another foul on him. Cheap foul on Harden before Dort gets his 4th, IMO.

    I read that as "Double" penetration

    All this dribble penetration allowed makes me miss Chick Hayes and Battier. A thousand charges would’ve been called by now. These guys aren’t doing their due diligence on defense before the game okc is getting to the rim every other possesion.

    OKC playing super physical, pulling out all the stops. Dort has taken down Tuck and Cov and Green on screens. Paul is grabbing and hacking Harden even away from the ball, getting in his head. It's a good strategy... if the refs keep playing along.

    Harden had 37 last time and every YouTube video had "Dort puts clamps on Harden".

    There sure are a lot of people falling out there. This is looking more like Summer Slam at the moment.

    the refs will play along. Rockets need to play through it. It's the only way to win. Can't whine because they are not on your side.

    James Harden isn't shooting 1000.0% on Lu Dort:

    LOOK AT THAT EXCELLENT DEFENSE BY DORT ON HARDEN.
