    Harden is like a wild-mustang that needs to be tamed. Full of raw talent, but needs the right coach to tame him and the right system to play in. Not one where he's expected to put on his superman cape every night and save the day since the coach doesn't really have a dynamic offensive system.

    lol yeah we have people blaming Lin for "pussying out". These boards are such a joke, let's rip a player who isn't even playing

    If there's one good thing about the team, it's that they never give up no matter how much they're down. We've fought through huge leads before. As long as Harden calms down and plays within the flow we're still in this. Everyone else has been playing well minus a couple of dumb passes here or there.

    What about the simple and predictable set plays?

    AB looks like OKC can't contain him. He definitely needs more court time in the 2nd half.

    So you gave Lin a free pass for being injured too?

    Made the mistake of watching, even though everything's happened pretty much the way I expected. Rockets don't play D, Harden keeps trying unsuccessfully to milk the same move for fouls, and turnovers all over the place (with Harden being the worst offender).

    I don't see how this team has learned anything from the playoff experience, other than how to play as badly as possible. It would have been better for us to tank.

    I can't believe Rockets "fans" could sit back and talk so much garbage about our own players and coaches. I'm done here.

    actually someone did a few pages back- said he was a wuss for not trying to play tonight. (never mind the fact that Lin's not playing tonight is a coaches decision)

    You tell me, I used their number as my ID for Christ sake.
    But I truly believe next season would be totally different with them working on off season together. Book it !!!
