    Harden is not a go to guy. We invested in him as if he was going to be a num 1 option. Harden is best suited as 2nd or 3rd option. He just doesnt have what it takes dominate premier defenders. Harden is far better suited coming off the bench and dominating 2nd units.

    LOLO at Melo making half his shots. Try 40% anyways this offense is just a buch of standing around. Harden has good ISO stats in general.

    You guys do realize Harden is going iso because aside from one or two players on this team our offense completely sucks right?

    He's already gone to the line 4 times already so I don't mind.

    I'm just saying that Parsons is a scrub and hardly minutes worthy, especially the minutes and the amount of freedom he gets as a scrub player.

    And yes, Kobe Delfino, except he's not much of a volume shooter who can make his shots or ISO well. So a scrub taking shots like Kobe. Everytime I see Delfino get the ball, most of the time it's not going back to anyone else. It's gonna get chucked up, sometimes even if it's very well contested/defended.

    Wouldn't it be cool if Parsons could shoot as good as Larry Bird?

    Exactly.

    He's missed 2 easy shots he should have made. The others were shots where no one else were moving and he was going ISO (could be a mchale thing)

    Otherwise Harden has been great on offense tonight. No he doesn't have 20+ points, but it seems he's spoiled everyone.

    His off ball defense is bad and he loses track of who he is guarding...with how often Westbrook does this I wonder if this is something they teach at OKC :p

    By your logic, every guard on the Rockets got blown away.

    Lin is proving all his critics right. He is just mediocre at best, or as George Karl said it a good bad point guard. He should've worked on his game the past summer instead of spending it china. It looks like he is getting worse every game.

    I'm a big Lin fan but he just looks like he has no legs out there, and is not as aggressive as last year.

    Lin took only 4 shots in the entire half...even Conley took 8 shots and he has less points and assists.

    Harden has to work on his jumpshot more, it's been off the past few games.

    Why am I not surprised that this thread turns into a magnify Lin's problem thread during half time.
