    Our offense is really easy to defend if you're a disciplined defensive team like the Spurs. We don't have any movement. We never didn't did since ADelman left

    being quick on offence is a lot different than being quick on defence, both are different actions. Defence is more reactionary and concentration. PJ is a good defender because of his footwork and reading the play better than Harden

    Can we all agree that Harden's shot making ability has been deteriorating for some time? man, if he doesn't get his **** together, this season is gonna get ugly for him and the team

    Uh you don't have to play him 30 mins, but 15mins with Harden wouldn't hurt. Don't be a p***y.

    I'm thinking this is all preseason. Harden has hardly tried to drive in this preseason, seems content staying healthy and just jacking up threes. I hope that's all at it is. Won't worry about it right now.

    So people still think we’re running all-time offense and Harden can lead?

    MDA still hasn’t figured out what to run on offense when jacking up 3’s doesn’t fall.

    Im sorry but this just isnt true. there are certain times when he really tries hard to play defense, and then hes pretty good. He is costing us so many points every game because he is just not focused on defense. often ariza would have to close out on harden's man just because he lost focus and is standing in nomansland. thats just not acceptable to me. I hold rockets players to a high standard - especially those with the talent level he has.

    I understand the playoffs, but I'm tired of Portland LMA. Why can't we guard him?!
