Rockets gotta take advantage in these minutes without Giannis. gotta get a lead before he comes back in.
Matthews is one of those annoying defenders that is well aware that you can push, grab and niggle Harden all game and never get called, so he's an unusally effective defender against him. Kind of like when PJ was at the Suns, hated that guy
role players are not going to win this. harden has to step up and be that all time scorer we know he is.
Why do we look clueless sometimes when Harden gets doubled? At this point we should be prepared for it every time. There should not be multiple possessions where it ruins our possession.
