    It happens. When you're having an off night and the calls are lopsided, its really hard to get into rhythm. Plus, even though Harden is having an off night, he still have to continue to take shots because off night or not, he still have a better chance to score than anyone else on the team. Tonight, Harden just can't get into rhythm and when he was driving to the hole, he gets hack and the officials just ignored him today....

    I just hope Harden works on more offensive moves this offseason. If the calls aren't coming, you need to be able to hit a midrange jumper or something. Can't keep relying on those calls cause guaranteed they will disappear in the playoffs during some games.

    Harden is a top 10 to 15 player in his league. You can't even say Schaub is a top 10-15 player at his position.

    James had a terrible game today and still put up 20/8/7. Nuff said.

    Honestly, aside from that 19-0 run, I thought Harden did fine. Better than most recent games, actually.

    First and foremost, he actually looked like he was trying on D. Made some nice steals as help defender. He also created good shot and just missed some. He will make those later if he keeps creating them.

    Hardens D was better today towards the end of the game. Is this supposed to be the Hardens version of the jeremy Lin is a joke thread?

    The Rockets win as a team & lose as a team people pointing fingers at anyone player are absurd. The rockets as a team turned the ball over way to much in the first quarter. And our team D is poor.

    James Harden is so damn good at basketball. What a monster. We have a guy that can compete with Lebron.


    Top 10 player, maybe top 5. We need one more to pair with him.

    Harden got his team to the finals when they were about to be down 3-0 against the Spurs. So I'd say Harden is not bad in any primetime games. In fact someone go get the stats. Because the playoffs are mostly all on primetime.

    This question is beyond ridiculous.

    For threads like this there should be a negative star rating. And as soon as the star rating gets to zero it goes away. Permanently.
