    It took like 3 offensive fouls to have one called.

    Harden is 6-9 with 15 points and people think he’s choking

    He was trying to draw a foul instead of going for the basket.

    Nice job Mike but we know they won't do anything. If anything they'll decide it was a foul on Westbrook.

    That’s the ratio the refs use. You figured it out!

    I feel like most of us want him to just be more aggressive. Take more shots. I don’t care if he takes 30 tonight.

    Caruso, Freaking Caruson, has blocked Harden 3x this series.

    I didn't know literally shutting someone down is having them go 6-9 with 15 points.

    Is it easier to find 1 player who demands a double team or 4 players who can score consistently against 3 defenders? We have the former. I thought we had the latter too, but maybe not.

    Like Westbrook does? When he continues to get blocked? There's a reason Harden's "soft" drives usually end up with non blocked layups.

    If Harden takes 30 shots I can live with the defeat. Then you can say, he tried. But he came out of the gate slow and you see what happened. When he got aggressive what a difference right.
