    Nah, i think it's all understandable, i personally agree with some, not that much with another part but overall it's a good post, maybe just a bit emphatic -> but it's all understandable, especially at this point :)

    There's been nothing enjoyable about this month, at all.

    How about you read the post properly. Where did I mention once we need to trade for a superstar? There are pieces all around the league we could pick up right now that would: A - fit in the sytem and B - bring a spark to the team.

    And honestly, Morey has not done a good job of getting the right pieces next to Harden period. Parsons and Gordon have been the most compatible by far, not a great strike rate. The goal is to win a championship, is it not? We're not even close, and that's largely due to Morey not pulling the trigger. We could have had Nick Young for a 2nd. Trade Beasley for Ennis. Draft an anaemic chinese PF who may never play over guys who could help this team right now (yes, Patrick McCaw). We still have no legit center and one other ball handler aside from Harden.

    Best point guard doesn't regularly post 10+ turnovers in a game. Harden's AST/TOV ratio in January is 1.62, also far from the best.

    Yeah i agree, he has been worse overall in these last games, i still think it has to do with his ankle and/or toe, probably still hurts and he can't move like he wants.

    Weird post. The clippers have won 50 games 4 years in a row. They're like 27-9 when he plays this year

    They didn't call the foul when Gordon jumped into the guy

    Fatigue and the schedule absolutely is playing a role in this, but there's still signs of greatness such as winning @ Memphis the day after getting run out of the building by Golden State. @ Milwaukee isn't a bad loss.

    We're still leading the league in games played by 2, confirming that the NBA still hates us. It'll work itself out in the 2nd half when we'll be one of the more well rested teams.

    I know what is not right, and i will tell you. To win games we need other players besides harden to step up. Dekker was the only one who was able to do it ( grizz game). Gordon has been awful, ryno isn't even worth to be mentioned anymore and ariza goes from hot to cold every other game, but has been nothing but cold the last few games. Yet our only problem is our fat PG who has too many TOs - u ask for a solution? With joomba/other stupid peoples logic: trade harden for CP3 or Rubio+picks to have less TOs at the PG spot and dont make the playoffs instead of being the 3rd seed.

    Bucks had a players only meeting and lost on Saturday.

    This win was due, the POM is good for one win.

    Once again the league/schedule intentionally screwed us.

    You are pathetic man. Harden is leading the league in assists. You cry wolf about his turnovers every single game, and crow all night long when your negative nancy shyte comes to fruition. Between you DD, Jopat and the other anti-Harden regurgitants you are absolutely ruining a feel-good season that has been truly BEYOND any one's expectations.

    This team is a player or three away from really contending, so what they have accomplished so far is to be commended not condemned. The ingrates in here just make me want to grab your floating rib and flip it inside out.

    It's one thing to be frustrated it's another thing to be Joomba. You can't talk this much **** about Harden and be taken seriously. Lay off the crack chief.

    He has flaws like every other player in the league, but for you he has nothing but flaws. It's a joke.

    With the roles of SGs and PGs starting to overlap in today's league, let's just call Harden a G. When you take his entire game into account, yes he's arguably one of the best guards in the game.

    Harden has had a tremendous season but his AST/TO ratio is now under 2 for the first time this season, something has to give unfortunately.

    He was gimpy. He turned his ankle right before the half and then he was held out too long, sure it was stiff by the time he got back in.
