    John Wall exhibiting the leadership that Harden never provided. Look, if Harden says he's going to give it a "chance" then he really needs to settle in and do that. These last two games no one can sit there, watch what we watch, and say Harden gave it a fair shake.

    Wall is in denial. Our defense and role players are not good enough.

    Even if Harden scores 35 points and carries us, we're still going to lose. And, there's no way Harden can score a consistent 30 plus points because of the system Silas is playing.

    Harden and Wall were super close friends before this deal. Party together almost every off season. It took 2-3 weeks for Wall to basically have no respect for James.

    I hope he doesnt mean james....because to me he is trying to play the way silas wants, its just that isnt working. Its like how people would try to criticize "bron ball" but the fact is his teams have been the most effective playing that style. Vogel moved lebron to full time PG to take advantage of it.

    James has to be james. Trying to fit in a system where everyone is getting equal shots just isnt going to work with this roster. These pieces just dont fit and we cant defend worth a damn.

    What about Wall? He's played like complete garbage the last 2 games. He's shot poorly and threw a lot of sloppy passes.

    Harden hasn't played well the last 4 games or so, but he's already given us enough effort in those 8 years.

    Which style was/is more effective? Off ball movement basketball or isolation basketball?

    Also, we don't have the right players to play off ball movement basketball.

    Lol make a jumper fool. Your putrid offensive rating is part of the reason harden can’t get clean looks. Start mclemore over this brick machine. That missed dunk to end the half was westbrook esqe

    we don’t have the right players to play iso ball either. We lack the shooters to space the floor for Harden.
