    Because Harden is incapable of having a good game for 50% of the people on this forum, and by 50%, I mean the fools.

    Just stopped in to read the last couple of pages. Seems like a few fans have some critique/opinions and other fans over reacting to it.

    You guys should check out other team forums. They literally chew up their players with vulgarity and spit 'em out and no one sits there to defend the players over every little issue.

    Harden is on pace for 46 pts, which is phenomenal, but with all the talent that the Rockets have, there should be more balance in scoring.

    Ball stopping is just one of the tired CF cliches of late.

    Floor general, sticky ball, hero ball, eye test...

    Lin was horrible in that first half. As someone who has continually preached patience with him, I have to say my patience has about run out. We're trying to win the damn game Jeremy. Settle down and take care of the ball.

    That goes for the other Rockets too. Take care of the ball and make the simple play.

    Rockets should be ahead by 20 at the half if it wasn't for the ridiculous turnovers.

    The guy doesn't even have the ball most of the time.

    Yeah, 12-3 turnovers isn't gonna cut a win against a better team.

    that's my point. dwight should have more shot attempts than 6. even if Harden on a given night can score 50, he shouldn't so he can get the other guys going.

    it's not knock on Harden's offensive ability, its that if this team is going to go deep, scoring has to be more balanced when you have guys like dwight, parsons, and Jones.

    We've slowed down tonight. There's been no fast breaks. Harden especially, has been allowing the defense to set when he gets the ball. This is OK for Harden and Howard, who can both do well with ISO plays, but not for everyone else, unless you're a good spot up shooter.

    This is why Jones and Lin have been sucking. Lin is terrible at half court offenses, unless he gets a solid pick to free him up. He gets jammed easily, hence all the silly passes tonight. Jones also needs the spacing from fast breaks to get his points.

    I still like Lin, but when they pressure him he panics
