    Harden is dribbling too much wasting the shot clock

    This is actually looking promising, close game and we aren't hitting any 3s or getting fouls.

    There is no ****ing way Roberson keeps making jumpers. Keep this half close and blow them out in the 2nd half.

    Eventually Harden will find his jump shot.

    Harden still needs to run out and put hand up when Roberson shoots the 3. Will need an adjustment. But will still leave him open with little pressure

    There is playing off and then there is this.

    You can't just look at the dude, at least make him think you may challenge the shot unless you are leaving another shooter open to do so...but your not...they don't have that many shooters.

    Are Ariza or Anderson playing?
    Maybe they didn't get the Late start time memo?

    how many more assists a game would harden have if capela could make a 5 foot flip shot like adams? adams is a very nice pnr big. granted, can't get alley's like capela, but still.

    okc continuing to shoot very well on non-layups.

    I knew Roberson would make threes because i knew we would be stupid enough to leave a nba caliber player nakedly wide open to shoot the 3. Stupidity at it's finest.

    Rockets only have 14 3 point attempts so far...that's not nearly enough

    OKC has outscored us by 9 from behind the arc

    Harden is pretty much ignoring Ryno. He needs more shots.

    You can give him 3s but you have to at least make a half hearted attempt to rush him a little.

    Just leaving him and giving him 10 seconds to shoot is r****ded.
