    Because everyone else looks like they're moving and trying a lot on defense. I guess Christian Wood is the other weak link.

    How long is it going to take before Tate designates Tucker to the bench?

    Harden needs to get the passes in to Wood faster than he is.

    Likely as soon as Tate's gas tank can handle NBA starter minutes.

    Shouldn't be too much longer. Tate is the perfect role player... MY GAWD!

    Yeah, he was really passive till the last couple mins in the second quarter.

    clutchfans: we need a team that's not so depended on harden doing everything and dribbling so much.

    also clutchfans: harden doesn't have the ball enough. he should have a 50% usage!

    I think the Rockets will get more calls in the 2nd half.

    Some of the fans here are morons. This is the first game with a new team and a new coach, and they’ve had two practices ever as a full team. The Kings are 3-1 and the Rockets are winning.

    Yet some would have you believe Silas sucks and the sky is falling. it’s just alternate reality...

    Harden trusting Wall to bring the ball up and run the offense is a big deal.

    Harden is STILL the better option to do this, despite how slow he is to bring the ball up.

    2nd half, I believe Harden will be convinced that allowing Wall and others to push the ball faster on the possession pays off down the stretch. Tate + Wall + Cousins + PJ + Wood is definitely going to be enough to tire out any opposing team.

    I wish we could get Brogdan to pair with Harden. Great defender and excellent shooter. Wood is so awful on defense we really need a guy like Roco next to him to make up for his inept defense.

    Curious to see what kind of defensive adjustments Silas is going to make in the second half.

    Wood essentially needs to be Melo 2.0 and scream at the top of his lungs every time the ball leaves his hands
