    Was Harden making a call or relaying a call from the bench?

    Regardless, Parsons shouldn't have let Lillard get so free when he isn't even screened.

    Listening to the defensive juggernaut, Harden.

    Nah, seeing how Mchale loves putting Parsons on PGs like CP3, I am sure it was Mchale's idea all along.

    I don't think Parson's hand is that big or Lillard's face is that long. Parson's hand is like 4 feet away from Lillard's face, AKA wide open.

    No Parsons was slow as F. LILLARD got a wide open set up three.

    Nah, doubt so too.

    Prob Harden reminding them about the switch as communicated by McFail.

    I refuse to believe Harden just did that on the fly. Makes 0 sense.

    Harden told him to guard baseline. I saw Parsons tell Beverly to switch at the last minute and I knew the game was over as soon as he did. Lillard has hit everything and Parsons couldn't guard anyone if his life depended on it. Everyone blamed Harden for poor D but ignored that Parsons was done after 2 and half quarters. Both are out of shape and cost us the series.

    Guys, players just don't randomly switch because they think it's best. This was a coaching decision from the bench.

    omg so it's Harden's and Parson's and Bev's and McHale's fault. . . .

    That's like, most of the team . . . .

    BEV is probably pissed off the most. He didn't get the last shot against Lilliard. DAMN!

    It honestly doesn't matter who was guarding him. It was just an incredible shot regardless. It is what it is, and we just need to accept that.

    Listen to the worst defensive player on the roster, brehs. Nonetheless, Parsons is slow as ****.
