    Harden has to be efficient, all this talk about how Westbrook is inefficient yet Harden only 1% higher on 3pt and 2% on FG's

    "The inconsistency of Lou Williams continues. After scoring 31 against Oklahoma City on March 26, he's gone 5-19 the last two games, counting tonight's contest against the Blazers."

    This team looks so out of sorts when Ryan Anderson isn't playing.

    When we learn that we can't turn it on and off when we want to. Someone nailed it earlier....we'll come out and get the game in our sites like down to 3,4 or 5 and then they'll end up winning by 10. You just can't play a qtr. or 2 and expect to win..especially against a team fighting for their playoff lives. Hope I'm wrong of course.

    Harden simply has too much help at his disposal

    So is this it. Was this a season full of exceeding expectations. Are we going to end up what everyone thought we would be before the season started. Average and first round fodder? That would be utterly disappointing if all they did this season was overachieve only to get into the playoffs and suck.

    Lou Williams is a garbage for our team, we should call-in Troy Williams form DLeague

    Just over and over IMO it comes down to no paint presence....I mean ZERO,zilch,nada. That's what I keep seeing....we constantly hoist up shots and no one underneath.... we don't have rebounders that move to the ball when a shot goes up. It's disheartening to watch.

    Harden's efficiency claim is based on advanced stats such as TS%, and Harden's FG% is brought down by the fact that he takes way too much three pointers for an average outside shooter, but I do agree that his shooting has to be a lot more consistent. It's always been an weakness of his, tbh.

    We just look too easily shut down from 3. Gordon has been wayyyy too cold the entire second half. I dont really see him being much of a factor in the playoffs playing the way he currently does. He also makes some terrible defensive decisions.

    Looks like better D so far but can't seem to get anything substantial on the offensive end.
