    They are ignoring him when he is open right under the basket! We have missed out on at least 10 easy shots because we are ignoring him.

    Then to make it worse the only time they pass it to him is when he is posted up 12 feet from the hoop! His teammates are making him look much worse than he is!

    LMAO. Lord.

    Anyway, I say we ignore Dwight's demands for the ball. Just drive, drive, drive.

    Don't let these fools on clutchfans sway you. Harden is a boss. I don't give damn what these fools say about Harden. He sucks at defense but he is our best player by a large mile on the offensive side.

    Knee jerk. Knee jerk. Knee jerk. Knee jerk. Knee jerk.

    Seriously though, we need The Beard. Or Tony Allen.

    Rox were garbage in the first half and are fortunate to be down only 12. Griz have a way of dragging teams down to theit level. Bench had been garbage, need to put Dmo in there to see if he can give some scoring and rebounding with his size. Mchale is slow to recognize when rotations are not working.

    This team is basically the anti-Spurs. No ability to consistently knock down free-throws, they don't protect the ball and turn it over way too often, and their defensive play is lackadaisical with the exception of a couple of players. Their greatest deficiencies are the most fundamental aspects of the game!!!

    Moreover, unless they're knocking down their threes or Howard has an exceptional mismatch in the post, they seem way too easily nullified on the offensive side of the ball. They automatically resort to trigger-happy threes the minute they're down by even a little bit.

    So here is where you all start finding specific players to blame rather than actually seeing the bigger picture?

    Missing 3's is not an excuse...Champions can still do the little things correctly when the 3 ball isn't dropping to create easy opportunities, making it hard for the opposition to score, keeping the opposition to 1 attempt per possession etc.

    If this teams are going to be Champions one day, they can't rely on the 3 ball to bail them out.

    Every time Dwight gets the ball in the post I just get this feeling that the Defense is going to do something that completely out-smarts him and takes him by surprise.

    C'mon, Dwight.. we all know that Superman is in there somewhere.
