    Harden teams repeatedly go out with a whimper in the playoffs. I don't mind getting beat but I would like us to put a real fight.

    CP3 only gets hurt AFTER you think you're winning the series. We'd go up 3-1 or something and then he'd pull his hammy. I feel like that's been his whole career, even before he joined the Rockets. I just don't think his body holds up to the stress of the playoffs too well.

    Y'all are too negative. Comeback starts right now, since I finished grading a stack of homework and can pay attention.

    Rivers gave up the Rondo 3, and then turned it over

    whatever disease Eric Gordon had, he passed it on to Rivers

    I'm int he same boat after this season. I don't think they can win 3 in a row. That's just too much to ask from this team.

    Get it in while you can mda. You’ll be the scapegoat for the worst trade Ever in the harden era.

    Again reversing decision because LeBron complained, MDA is right to be fuming at that.

    Bro check the stats for this series as a whole. Harden only lineups are in the positive, Westbrook's are not.

    The only way Harden wins a ring in this league as the #1 option is if he's in Steph Curry's position.

    Surrounded by at last 2 other legit all-stars that compliment him well, otherwise nope.

    Harden has 11 shots. And that's the bottom line. Kitten mode.

    If we lose this series, it’ll be well worth it if mike is fired. Vogel is still experimenting with his lineup while dumbtoni trots out the same damn loser lineup after every loss. When Nash and harden can’t bail this guy out he is mediocre at best. A real coach would dig deep into their bench and see what works. Try Bruno and run and pick and roll with harden.., anything but doing the same thing over and over again

    He has one foul so it looks good like it isn't rigged. But Harden is assessed 3-4 fouls in the first half so he can't be affective on defense. When he drove to the baskets he had 4 Lakers all over him, and they called Harden for the foul...

    stop being a homer.

    Numbers are lying. Harden is always disappearing in critical games.

    He is just a good player, but not great.
