Actually the problem is we got Defensive minded coach that cant coach defense Dudes rotations leave Jones and Capela lineup should never be out there for an extened period of time. JB finally came to his senses when Jones couldnt even keep up with Diaw and got pulled
The issue is... When ever someone say anything negative about Harden on any thread you are quick to say "Howard too".. Harden doesn't play Defense... "Howard too" Harden wouldn't play team ball tonight.. "Howard too" jeezz T_Man
It is a team game, and one of the choices hasn't been fully playing that. I put the word fully in there because at times he will play team ball on offense, but other times... no need for words.. the film speaks for itself.
morey/les for not giving this team a real coach. even if we had durant/lebron, with the crap offensive and defensive systems we employ it wouldn't matter. the franchise needs to dump the streetball on both ends of the floor and finally give its players some direction to form a team identity. that can only happen with a real frickin coach.
Where is the neither option? Bev and Brewer have been mediocre after receiving their payday contracts. D-Mo is always hurt and Jones is Jones. Only role players playing above expectations are Capela, Thornton, and Jet if you consider he's old as **** and getting paid very little.
Harden. Dwight has not been stellar, but I rarely question his effort. I cannot say the same for James. That said, I think coaching is the preeminent issue.

Lol.. there is a highlight on nba.com where Harden did the exact same thing and Ariza again gets left to go for someone else's man There must be a Team Ariza too haha
It's a team game, sure, but when some guys are paid more than other guys, the players paid more are expected to do more. And they aren't.
I think you mean James is paid more, no one seems to be holding Dwight to his contract, he's paid 50% more than James you know.
I think the question was asked wrong I think the op meant who do we build around going forward after this season?
It seems some of you are drunk or high so let me break it down real easy for y'all. Player A 28pts 6rebs 7ast Player B 13pts 11rebs 2ast Which player you think is more responsible if the team is under performing? I could also get into FTs and I could also bring up whose numbers are declining big time but I don't want to confuse the common folk.
I asked the question I wanted to ask and gave only the choices I wanted to give. I simply wanted to see where the sentiment was on this board between Harden and Howard and how strong it was.
that play right there is why ariza should be among the last to be traded. im not a huge fan of him but when he's used right he's fkn good
