    As good as Harden is on offense, his defense is a GLARING issue this game. He just does that "imma let you blow pass me and swipe move". So irritating.

    It’s so obvious that lack of height leaves to less rebounding. Can’t give good teams multiple chances on O.

    perfect example 4 on 3 resulted in a wide open rivers shot from a pass in the middle from wb. I'll take that make or miss. that's good basketball

    just bc he missed doesn't make it the wrong play. you teach actually teach that

    Dallas can’t guard us

    if Rockets can figure out how to defend them at even just a decent level, then they’re lunch meat

    What typically happens doesn’t matter. At this point you HAVE to stop him. Good teams step up and shut hot role players down at some point.

    this is why the warriors kept and played a center even in short minutes.
