    I.D.I.O.T?

    The answer is no.

    It's probably garbage threads like this that make the BBS slow to a crawl.

    Look at petty you guys are. He just got us a clutch block and you're on to hating him.

    That block at the end by Harden saved his ass. Have to give him credit for that after being on a milk carton most of the game.

    Much smaller stage... but I'm reminded of Dream v Starks.

    Regardless... James didn't hang his head. He found a way to contribute to the W. That's what champions do.

    Harden redeemed his entire performance with that clutch block at the end.

    That being said its the Lakers now. Still gotta play better offensively.

    If Harden doesn't get that block and Dort hits the shot, his reputation probably would have been irreparably damaged.

    But, he got it done. Second greatest series saving block in Rockets history?

    he saved his legacy. he saved russ' legacy. he saved Dantoni's job for a moment. He gave a chance for tucker to come back next year. He saved everything.

    HATS OFF TO YOU HARDEN

    i don't care at all about the missed shots. they are a very good defense. He has trouble with those.

    Enjoy Boys!

    He saved his own ass with that block. Not that I would expect Dort to make it anyways, but the visuals will do a whole lot offsetting the narrative of him totally ******** the bed.

    He saved his own ass, and that win saved WB, Morey, MDA, and Tilmans ass as well.

    Overall, very mixed feelings here about this series. Clearly, CP3 is as elite as ever, WB is the who was hobbled, CP3 played like a super star, we traded 4 picks for that swap. CP was destroying RoCo who cost us Clint and a 1st to make space for WB as well. OKC took us to 7 games and we barely won by the skin of our teeth which is embarrassing. Harden got outplayed by Dort in game 7

    ... but at last, we won, and Harden, WB, RoCo will have the opportunity to change all of these mixed feelings, to change the narrative, the opportunity to prove that it was the right deal, and that this team will be winners.

    3rd.

    Second goes to the Orlando arena rim for blocking 4 consecutive Nick Anderson free throws.

    It's not that hard to do when nobody guards you at all.

    Im with you bro, this trade was still a bad one. Westbrook can change my mind vs the Lakers.

    Real Talk, I've never been happier to have this conversation after a win. I saw my Rockets fandom flash before my eyes.
