    50 pt triple doubles against the Knicks

    20 straight 40 pt games

    averaging 36 ppg for the season

    @ the end of the day does any of this matter?

    I don't need to hear BS from Morey about how Harden is the greatest offensive player ever.

    If Harden was actually best offensive player ever, we would be in the WCF already.

    Harden is garbage in the playoffs.

    Playoffs he isn’t that good at all. Certainly not enough to be the #1 guy

    Doesn't matter how remarkable Harden is in the regular season, Harden will never be considered for an MVP again. It's over forever.. Now he can focus on the playoffs where he is seen as a career choker..

    Am I going crazy or is this anti-Harden hysteria completely unwarranted? He didn't play GREAT, but he certainly wasn't the reason we lost this game/series. The Warriors are probably the greatest team ever assembled. It's ridiculous that one man is held to a ridiculous standard when the rest of the team seemingly gets a pass.

    Our gameplan in the fourth quarter was atrocious. Capela was atrocious. CP3 this series was atrocious. Our depth was atrocious. Harden wasn't the problem.

    Harden was fine. Refs screwed us again. Everything we where about to blow the game open they call bullshit. Refs screwed us game 1 5 and 6. Smh something needs to be done

    Coach, game-planning, strategy, philisophy; these are the things to blame.

    Dude had 35 pts, averaged 35 ppg for the whole series, only had one game below 30 pts (29 in game 2 with eye injury).

    However, he is too easy to guard when he just brings the ball up in the 4th, they trap and James just makes the right play. Rockets did not counter that at all and the rest of role players don't have easy sets/movement that they can use to score. Most of our role players don't know what to do when they get the ball and they're not wide open, it's pathetic.

    They ruined our momentum every time we went on a run they miss a call or don’t make an obvious foul call

    I was wondering what the ultra homer justification would be. I guess they have settled on “only LeBron has beaten gs”.
