ClutchFans Game Thread: Thunder @ Rockets 4/29/2013 (Playoffs Round 1, Game 4)

What you are seeing is backlash for all the unfair and uncalled for hate that has been heaped on Lin this season

 

Lol. These guys never quit, lol.

 

Fisher needs to be taken out. I hate his game flopping all over the place. Rockets need to take a double digit lead heading into the fourth. IF the game is close again they will not get the W.

 

Harden, Harden he's the man,
If he can't do it, Beverley can!

 

He does not have raw talent. He is no KD or LBJ, or anything close. He can only shoot well when he hasn't exerted himself and open. Watch him towards the end of games when he's out of breath. Absolutely terrible. His drives are terrible and decision making is horrid.

 

Harden is a one dimensional player- he can never be a superstar

 

where have you been all season?!

 

Lucky to be down only 7 with Harden playing like a complete dog. 3-point shooting bailed the Rockets out.

Rockets should attack KD each and every time he brings the ball upcourt. Why can't McHale figure that out? It's a strategic mistake for OKC to have KD waste his energy this way and the Rockets should capitalize.

Very good chance to win tonight. I don't think K-Mart will continue shooting well and Harden will play much better in the 2nd half.

On the OKC side, coach Bonehead played Perkins 3 minutes in the 1st half. Too bad he didn't try that strategy in last year's Finals.

 

To be realistic, Harden is the only star in this team, you will go as far as he carries you.

I blame Harden's poor performance on fatigue and MacHale for too soft on Harden.

 

Apparently Harden has been getting flashbacks of Miami in the NBA finals every game for the last month or so now.

Doctors recommend that him and Jeremy Lin to go through some therapy together.

 

Props to delfino.... guys got heart!

 

AGREE my friend...Sports these days are pathetic.

 

atleast Lin tries and plays hard AND a team player...Lin has a lot to learn and improve tho, still easier to root for a guy that tries and busts his ass off than a lazy, standing around player.

Harden is a allstar talent, but plays lazy, plays 1v1 iso's (killing 24 shot clock/making his teammates standing there), he is good at basketball but plays the wrong way, needs to learn the fundamentals

 

LOL:grin:

 

Where was KD's heart when CD stole the ball and busted a MFn three in his face? KD sagged off of CD.......seriously? Are you that freaking lazy or is it just stupidity - KD doesn't know CD can hit the 3?

 

This team will prob still win game 4. See yall in game 5.

 

... we are not winning this game with Harden playing the same way he did in the first half. "regular" Harden is better than he has this half. You disagree but also solidified my point.

 

Exactly, Durant is still a beanpole, one of artests best attributes as a defender when he was good was just his sheer weight, players would comment about how physically training it was going up aginast his 250+ weight, leaning on them and all, keep him under constant pressure and burn this stringbean out

 

Harden 4-30 from 15+ ft jumpers in this series so far.

 

Response

The way TNT is praising Harden, I thought he was playing really well, but I just noticed he has more TOs than points. Damn . . .
