ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 12/13/2013

You sir are a smart man.

 

harden thinks he's lebron james.

 

Haha ! I saw that Dmo knows :grin:

 

You must not be watching the same game if you call it BS.....to the team's credit....I guess the last several minutes everyone was just watching Harden do his thing...ISO and brick. Minus those last few minutes Harden has a solid game so far.

 

Harden in the last 8 mins of the second quarter, 0-6 FG's and 0-2 FT's. That flagrant one by Green did a number on him.

 

Curry tends to get his teammates involved in the first half, and then look for his shots in the 2nd half. Bev and Lin need to attack him in the 2nd half and make him exert himself on defense so he doesn't torch us on offense.

 

Harden actually hit the first 3 last night, but the next possession they missed. First time I've seen Harden hit the first shot.

 

He's gotten beat by some of Curry's crossovers but his style of D is not as effective with guards with good crossovers since he goes for the steal a bit too often.

 

would rep if i could

 

Jamesn Harden has been selfish the last few possessions beore the end of the half. Lots of open guys but he still tried to shoot the effin ball.

Move around the rock, man! Share it!

 

Yeah, a few weeks back someone here was assuring me what a post up presence he was...if so, why camped out on the 3 point line ? Why wouldn't you bring another threat inside ?

 

Doug Collins is awkward

Everyone is going to get beat by Curry now and again. He's that good. Patrick is doing a good job staying with him and occasionally denying him the ball. He also had a clean block on that three that was called a foul. Pat's getting screened constantly so it appears that he's getting beat more often than he is.

Lin is also playing solid defense tonight. He looks much more comfortable than last night.

 

People say the Rox and Warriors are rivals but the series is incredibly lopsided and has been for a while in Rox favor. I do think Iggy is key with them and would like to see how Rox do against them with Iggy out there.

 

I'd like to see the play from last year where Harden goes and sets a pick at the top of the 3 point line for our PG.

PG uses it and he's now matched with the SG.

So Harden will be matched with Curry.

I'd like to see Curry with 3 fouls try to stay in front of Harden.

 

Longest halftime ever

 

No one doubts Harden's skills, but he plays like Melo. Amazing player, ball-dominant, 1v1 nightmare. At the same time he ISOs way too much, disrupt team flow, and is pretty selfish.

 

A good player should know to stop shooting it when his shots are not falling. But Harden just keeps jacking shot after failed shot. It's stupid. Is Harden turning into Tracy McGrady 2.0? We dont need another T-Jack on this team.
