    So what? Gordon this season is playing at a better level and in a far more consistent fashion.

    It must frustrate opposing teams that they are forced to leave a shooter like Ego wide open even when Harden is having an off night, simply because Harden is just that good.

    I disagree. His shot is good enough that it spaces the floor. And if defenders do leave him, I feel confident he'll make it. He's one of those guys that you truly want him to keep shooting no matter what.

    On top of his shot and shot reputation, he has nice go-to moves when defenders rotate properly on him. The two-dribble drive step back, the dirk-legged fade away, post, and spin move to the basket.

    But his shot, regardless if it's falling or not, is his biggest contribution. He spaces the floor for arguably the best driver to the basket in the league. Anderson's mere presence on the court changes what you can do on offense. Again, that's regardless if he's making them or not.

    Luck is about to run out fast . The Rockets without Bev and Capela can no longer compete with the truly elite teams.... The guys are simply too lazy to defend from the getgo of the game.

    You lost two starter quality players and you're still complaining? STFU

    People should also take into account that this was their 3rd game in four nights. No Beverley and no Capela. Still got that win.

    My money is on Gortat. Apparently the media loves to camp around his locker for sound bites because he can't control his mouth.

    I am sure he EGO could do it if we bring here Korver so floor is more spread for him like it is spread for Klay in GSW

    I never liked the hire, but yeah, the POR series should've sealed his fate. Aldridge just scored again while I was typing.
