ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Clippers 11/17/2023

What year do you think Harden thinks it is?

 

Unfortunately for him he still thinks it's 2018 where there should be a system built around him. Sucks for whatever team he's on. Harden is just not a viable player at this stage of his career on a good team. When he's been coddled his entire career to be a only on ball player who is useless off ball and when your on ball talent waynes due to getting old and losing agility and you are notorious for lollygagging on defense, you just don't become a viable high minute player on a good NBA team. Harden would struggle to get minutes on a Ime coached team.

 

Judging by this answer, I think you misunderstood my earlier post.

I dont think Harden can stay in front of anyone in our rotation except maybe Landale.

 

Lol my bad. I thought for some reason you asked "who can guard harden"

I reread the original comment and it says "who can Harden guard" and I'm like "oh you meant the complete opposite" lol. My bad.

Ya he can't guard ****.

 

I GET MARRIED ON SATURDAY ASSUMING SHE DOESN'T COME TO HER SENSES!

 

if you adopt Landale she'll know you're a good person in your heart

 

If I see or hear the word franchise, one more time...

 

It’s wonderful to watch a team that cares about defense again.

 

I'll...uh...I'll pray for you. Grats

 

The reason i HATE west coast games is because instead of staying up to 2 am for tipoff i have to stay up/ wake up at 4.30 am and get even less sleep than usual

 

I’m on the East coast, west coast game are the worst for me. Plus I have to wake up at 4 in the morning

 

Clippers snap out of it this game. Rockets come back down to earth and lose by 57. If Harden scores more than 10 points, it'll be even worse. Nice morale boost of a game, though.

 

Dammit!!!! 4th page.

 

Sure you were thinking about basketball and not dinner?

 

isn’t that what Harden puts on steak?

 

Day Two

Haven't seen a basketball for days. Lost my basketball rhythm. Must...not...uhhhhhhhhh!!!

 

I honestly hope they **** up and put Beard on Green. Now that he knows how to drive and dish that's either a gimme bucket or an open shot wherever the help defense is scrambling from

 

Harden can be so lazy on defense that they have to switch because Harden just isn't going to fight through screens.

This means whoever is the guy at the point of attack whether it's Green, Sengun, FVV needs to call screens to get Harden switched onto them. Force Harden to defend.

 

Force him to try, you mean
