    we sure as hell aren't going to win one without him. Like it or not harden is our ticket to success, bad defense or not.

    even though i agree harden has to play better D if we're going to win a championship

    Harden called for a 3 seconds. W. T. H.

    Guys, I'm so disheartened by Harden's lack of commitment to defense. As Kerr keeps saying, you can't win a championship if your best player isn't focused on defense.

    Harden brings out the inner MJ in all of his opponents.

    I don't understand how we can take care of a team 10x better in Portland just the other night and tonight we look like we can barely hang with the local YMCA squad. So irritating.

    His off ball defense has been just as bad as Harden's this game

    If it wasn't for Harden and his 32 points wed be losing so bad... Imagine if he was playing like he did against the Clippers... Rockets have to stop relying on Harden so much for offense or they are a first round exit.

    First it was M.J. Reddick, now it's Steve "MJ" Blake.

    Defense is 50% of the game, if we wont be able to win a championship if we only play offense

    they're not relying on Harden. They're playing this way because Harden likes to shoot...a lot.
