harden used to be considered a god in elimination games. We won game 4 and 5 vs okc to avoid elimination. we won game 5 to avoid elimination vs POR. We won game 5,6,7 to avoid elimination vs LAC (with harden fantastic in that game 5). We won game 4 to avoid elimination vs GSW. Now he has the narrative of choking in elimination games because game 5 vs GSW in 2015 and Game 6 vs SAS in 2017. let's see what happens if any team even gets us to an elimination game this year.
Jazz fans have resorted to blaming the refs and Harden's playing style for all of their misfortune. They need one final reality check before coasting into a long, lackluster offseason. Prediction: Rockets by 20 and Jo Chee attempts at least one 3-pointer.
And, even more times he has been in this situation and .....succeeded. The parallels are intersecting!
Don't matter. If the rockets were focused game 2 we could have swept their ass. Team has no chance versus a machine like the Rockets.
I'm glad you guys are confident in Harden with all the first round and semi-final round victories with the Rockets. Rockets have been to the WCF once in the Harden era. I want him to get back there again and go farther.
No need for complacency. Keep focused on the job at hand. Harden played badly in the 2nd half in Game 4. He needs to have a good talk with Kobe before the game. Hakeem and Clyde need to address the team before Game 5 too. Go Houston Rockets!
