    Harden can’t guard EVERYBODY!

    points by quarter:

    1 42-42
    2 33-43 (mavs double = rockets go 4 vs 3)
    3 33-34
    4 26-19

    there's only 1 quarter that stands out as to where we lost the game. the one where harden was taken out of the offense. the one where we played 4 vs 3 on offense without harden.

    that's why I referred to the double team as the turning point of the game.

    Russ' defense has been inexcusable. The amount of wide open Jumpers he gave up this game off some boneheaded sh-t is super frustrating.

    I thought that was him who helped one pass away. Whoever that was, it was as a bonehead play

    Again the problem isn’t the 4 vs 3. No idea how you think those scores would be an offensive problem

    Harden is a terrific clutch time defender. Russ should have stayed with his man IMO.

    This game could have easily been won with better coaching on our end. Look how close this game is.

    Not sure why Harden didn't pull up and instead running so much time off the clock. Now it's over
