    If you ever doubted that Harden has heart, last night should dispel that completely

    He just kept attacking the basket even if some ended with step-back mid-range jumpshots.

    If you're ever unsure about the definition of heart?
    Think back to the yesterday's game where Harden just kept attacking and attacking, without regard for how many points the Rockets were down, and was completely determined to get his team the victory. You could see the man was completely exhausted, but he just didn't let that affect his desire and kept driving!

    Harden has HEART
    and he's getting tougher as well

    Maybe playing vs the league MVP is fueling his extra motivatio

    After the last couple of games, Harden has ascended past TMac by a mile and has to be on the Rockets Mt. Rushmore with the greats. This dude is nothing short of unbelievable.

    Yes he is no long soft anymore. Never have a question for his talent level.

    Not only game 2, but game 1 he was incredible too. Feel so bad for him playing with so much heart and still coming up short by a tiny bit

    He needs help. Blaming Harden for losses is just plain idiotic. He would be even better with a couple of play makers on the team. He is currently the ONLY player on the team that can create his own shot.

    Tonight is not about Harden, Harden's teammates, or the coaches.

    It was a colossal failure from each and every player.

    We need Lawson.
    Pretty clear one playmaker isn't going to cut it. Unless that playmaker is LeBron.

    even lebron is not enough when nobody else can make shots and there is no defense being played by anyone but the center... he is so good because he gets his teammates open shots and they actually make them... our team is full of average-below average 3pt shooters

    Lebron never won a ring when he was surrounded by meh talent and Harden won't either. Its the NBA you can't do it alone. Just look at GSW

    No I don't think so. The heart is there, the toughness is coming along. I guess it takes some smackdowns like this to build it up

    When you have heart AND you're tough, then you're at Dream state

    Of course one playmaker is not enough, I disagree with putting blame just on Harden.

    This is pretty much a team issue, but I didn't see any of that Game 2 fire from James tonight.

    We'll attribute it to growing pains, and just wait for the good times when we can reap the benefits
