    All good points. Having said that, he's not a good coach...so if he's not a good coach I don't know what else you call him except the obvious...and we know what that is...

    We need better players in the worst way.

    When Harden sits, our offense goes to sh**. Harden plays 40+ minutes every game these days, because we have no second offensive option. Beasley might be that guy, but I'm not sold on him yet.

    Why did JB pull that line up that was doing so well on defense that included KJ? JB is literally the dumbest ****ing head coach I've ever seen.

    I'm sure Lin had no problem playing with Harden, but the system was making Lin quite useless, more useless than his mediocre self. Why do you think he was gone after a season if he enjoyed his time here so much. That's partly Lin's fault too because he's like Harden lite in that he can't make himself useful without dominating the ball. The point still stands though Harden is not effective with ball handlers

    The OKC version of Harden is gone, he was a sixth man and he did dominate the ball because that what they needed, a creator off the bench. He never played full minutes side by side with Westbrook. It's not worth mentioning that Harden with this one, just like there's no comparison between Raptors McGrady and Rockets McGrady.

    Classic Rockets game. Low energy, make a comeback by getting hot from deep for a few minutes and then play piss poor defense down the stretch while we just brick 3s.

    Harden looked tired at the end.

    When Harden was on at the end, the offense was still ****

    The offense died a very sad death in the final 5 minutes

    Our defensive problems are that we are a team full of gamblers.

    All we do is play passing lanes.

    Stay in front of your guy.

    The JVG/Thibs of the world wouldn't allow this.

    Again, Lin and Westbrook played plenty of minutes with Harden, and they produced well enough, so you're wrong. And Lin was pretty decent player in Houston, he was not ineffective at all.

    that's what happens when you worn out a guy by playing him 40+ minutes every single game, because there is no other player that can step up offensively

    40-44 minutes a night, where it's basically him or nothing.

    So what will he have left come playoff time?

    He will have Dwight. Who plays 10x harder in the playoffs.

    Dwight was - 14 in today's game, so maybe he'll be just -1.4 in the playoffs

    I only caught the last 1 minute of the game. Just a question, why was dwight in the last possession when the rockets needed a 3?
