ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Cavaliers 3/22/2014

man, 50 wins is not easy, last season, Harden was sole all star in the team, we did not get 50 wins... I don't him he improved a lot this season and his D even regressed...James has to become a two-way player, then to be considered MVP, I think he is capable, but he is not there yet... IMO, he is not even the MVP of Rockets this season, Dwight is.

 

What exactly are you basing this on?

Compared to Dwight, Harden leads in win shares, win shares per 48 and PER. His offensive game has improved from last season and I think his defense is essentially the same. Dwight's been great for us, but Harden has actually improved on the spectacular season he had last season and in my opinion is easily our MVP.

 

Very good summary. I agree with most of it. If Harden can find even a little more consistency for this kind of play, he will be in the LBJ and KD category. The Cavs are really a strange bunch of players. The team has been drafting at the top of the lottery for 3 years and with no real effect on their game. Kyrie Irving is a very talented individual, but as a leader of the team a non-entity. Dion Waiters is a talented player as well, but nothing outstanding. He too appears to be there for his own stats line. The Rockets know how to play team ball. The Cavs do not.

 

Difficult game tonight. I hope Dwight plays because we will need omer and dwight against Big Al.

 

Plain and simple, without Dwight, we don't have an inside threat, our d would have been a lot worse. Dwight plays both ends. He is the second option on offense, his defense is valued even more to this team. Harden may give you 25pts/game and some clutch moments, but his defense is almost a liability for this team.

 

Guess who were the only rockets players last year were on the team the year before

 

No need to guess. Chandler parsons and Greg smith

 

And 2pats, m Morris, but they did not finish the season with us.
