    This is really painful to watch. Absolutely no one but Harden has scored in this half :(

    Chris Paul must have a guilty conscience while he is bowling right?

    Its time to take harden out,

    He has taken things too personally and is playing selfishly

    Sixers are sending two guys on Harden at the half court. They are ignoring the rest of Rockets scrubs.

    Brewer basically rubbing himself against Harden repeatedly and drawing the foul is a mystery.

    I'm worried about the healthy part too. I wish I was as positive as you with making the playoffs lol. And please don't get the 8th seed. Playing GSW round 1 would be a nightmare

    Kenneth hasn’t played but when he played he was the second best player on the team. It’s not an excuse to not use your best options. We don’t have the personnel so we won’t even try to use the best matchups we have, doesn’t make sense. Going small is not the only option. Go small for what? Because there is so much ball and body movement and everyone is swishing shots? I’d rather play chriss than go small in that situation

    selfishly? I think he knows he is probably the only hope at this point.

    "Hey guys, do you see how we always get embarrassed off cuts and ball movement, lets incorporate that into our offense, so we can take some pressure off Harden." - no Rocket management person, ever.

    I know I keep on saying this, but a lot of this stuff is alleviated if MDA just throws big bodies at Embiid. EVERYTHING was going Philly's way in the first and they weren't up that much. Then MDA decides to go ultra small. Chriss is trash but he is big and has 6 fouls..

    Where is Austin Rivers In these times when Harden need a break? He was ultra aggressive.
