    If you trade Westbrook, you are going to have to trade Harden, too. He’s not going to want to remain here if his best friend is traded away.

    He barely tries to score before the double comes. He always goes into the between the leg sizeup knowing damn well the double is coming as soon he starts. IMO that’s selling the possession and it’s lazy. Some would say he’s making the right read. But the right read in the “Playoffs” would be to get a bucket by any means necessary. Honestly, I don’t want to see this group play no mo. I miss the days of Lowry, Scola, Landry, & Yao. None those guys quit on the team. Those teams had heart, thats something this team is lacking.

    James Harden was so much fun to watch before D’Antoni, he was a score first combo guard. The stats may look better now but his game is so one dimensional. Easy to guard in crunch time. Kobe was right

    They make 16 points sounds like 30 points. Game of runs; it's not domination.

    Keep feeding RoCo and PJ in the corners or above the break.

    Not enough 3 attempts, missing FTs and throwing a turnover fest is a recipe for disaster.

    Will they come up with some pride, energy and execution in 2nd half?

    When we are down big like this I hardly ever see Harden picking up the pace. We usually have to rely on Westbrook or CP3 before for that. Like when we are down big he needs to start making quick moves in the shot clock. What happened to the 10 second or less offense that is games by MDA?

    It’s like why are we the only team that’s always tired ? Aren’t they playing too ???? Aren’t athletes built for these games ? Lol
