    Yes Harden was good in the 1st half of the season, but look at his numbers since march.

    March: 5.7-14.6 .389%
    April: 7.5-19.3 .390%
    Playoffs: 7-19.3 .363%...4-25 16% on 3pts this series...

    in April he averaged 5.1 T/Os per game...in these playoffs he is averaging 5 TOs a game also...

    these are just the pure numbers...Going from an eye test you can also tell there is so much less ball movement as a result of what he does at points in the game...I am not sure how any of that is "efficient" or winning basketball...

    Granted he has been playing hobbled...

    Rockets on at 8:30 Wednesday on TNT. Hawks-Pacers relegated to NBA TV again. LOL.

    I think Harden is just breaking down. First year as the leader, he's probably tired as hell before the game even starts.

    We do not know how decided to go Harden ISO. Based on the fact that we went from going with Parsons to going to Harden ISO after a quasi time out, I would guess Mchale made the call.

    Harden is young and he needs to be coached in the right way to become the leader of the team. Whether he will be like a Melo or a matured James will be decided by how he is coached in the next two years.

    I'm 43 dude, and I've been a diehard fan for 30 years. I happen to be very well read and I manage the staff of a 5M/yr store... and what I've learned in my life, is if you tolerate lack of effort and focus - you get what you deserve! I'll forgive anybody a dud game or slumps where your shot just isn't falling... Lack of defensive intensity, lack of focus resulting in 10 turnovers, and almost singlehandedly giving away ANOTHER game with poor shot selection down the stretch - deserves to be called out - period!

    I'm getting my vents out, but you go right ahead and keep making personal attacks...

    I would feel bad for Atlanta too if they had to play India. First thing I would tell the Hawks' players is to "HIDE YO KIDS HIDE YO WIVES CUZ THEY RAPIN EVRYBODY OUT HERE"

    Is it a coincidence that he starts to ISO more later? Do you remember still remember the last regular season game? How much ISO did we do? Do you still remember after a time out, all we came up is a screening to get the ball to Harden and ISO.

    Unless Harden ISO is our plan for closing out game going forward, I do not see the reason to repeatedly play harden ISO.
