    It was probably easier for him to find the balance in OKC since he's playing with better players but with a group of young players it's tough because they tend to defer to him quite often as well.

    I consider Melo a superstar; he is almost impossible to stop on offense. If Melo plays D, then I consider him a more of superstar than Harden. I consider Harden an all-star on offense and a scrub on D.

    Finally, McHale decides hold "everyone" accountable! Good for him.

    +3 from Marcus and 4 from Smith. Very nice.

    I've got a barf-inducing feeling Vasquez and Gordon are going to go off in the second half.

    I see what you are saying, but if he didn't lose the ball on 7 TOs, he would have more shot attempts. He just turned the ball over a lot, so what can you do?

    He needs to shoot more. Not enough talent on this team for him to always be a pass first point guard..

    He shot a lot last season with NY. Check his game log..

    George Karl - "lin is the motor that runs the Rockets"

    Calvin Murphy - "Lin needs to run the offense"

    Kevin McHale - "Jeremy will be fine" (he'll sit next to me on the bench and won't get hurt).

    I think so. They're finally holding him accountable. Really surprised on my part actually.

    People bashing harden is just was bad as the other half bashing Lin game after game. Harden has the ball alot. Usually much more than Lin. He isn't the first player ( elite player ) to turn it over this much.

    Even the best play-making/facilitating SGs are gonna be worse than worst NBA PGs in this respect...unless your wingmen are Lebron/Bird/Jordan, please leave the ballhandling/facilitating to the PGs

    Darn it, Harden's hero ball is really ugly to watch. No cheese cake for him after the game.:grin:
