    story of the game: PG play, rebounding, no real offense in the 2nd half just jack 3s and throw up prayers on drives

    All teams will do this to a superstar caliber guard. MVP players find ways to overcome it.

    Rebounding (DMo's lack of) really hurt tonight. Gave up a lot of 2nd chance pts. See you soon Dwight.

    Guys Harden is tired and has no help, he has to do too much on this team as far as initiating the offense. Most of us have been afraid of Harden wearing down toward the end of the season and into the playoffs. He needs help initiating the offense. Now he's having to D-up LMA. Good grief.

    I sense a loss tomorrow. Jazz are the hottest team since the all star break.

    I'm not usually a proponent of firing McHale, but his coaching this game was really really weak. He made no adjustments and the team's offense was so stagnant (again). Maybe when Dwight comes back, we'll be okay. Hopefully.

    I never see a player like Harden.

    He just doesn't want the ball, doesn't want to shoot. Just nothing he wants to do on court right now.....WOW...

    I agree, this mess about them shutting down Harden is exactly that. Mess.

    Other guys have to step up occasionally, you can't have Beverly taking and missing shots like he did and DMo can't be so soft.

    whole team sucked. just sit everyone since tomorrow's game against at Utah is going to be hard. They're a league-leading 8-2 since the All-Star break.

    This is where we are exposed for our height problem. Tallest guy on our field 6'9 6'10 and our only 7' Donatas plays like he is 6'3. This is why Mchale had Asik playing with Dwight! Not Mchale's fault we have no height is it Morey?

    This is an exact copy of the playoffs last year. Portland picks up the defense intensity and Harden wants nothing to do with it.

    Why does our offense always look so fluky?

    It just feels lucky when shots go in.

    I will never understand Morey and his obsession with Beverley.

    He plays great D, but his ability to hit open threes wipe out his effectiveness.
