    Yeah. Actually, Harden did get to play with the ball at OKC. Thats why Westbrook only averaged 5 assists. They could coeexist because Westbrook could actually play SG and score, and had an aggressive mentality to "get his own" rather than defer.

    Wonder if Morey still thinks trading for Williams was his worst move?

    I don't understand why Rocket "fans" are hating on their own player and so frequently. Y'all can hate on him all you want if he isn't a Rocket. You don't hate your own player especially on a team fan site.

    In fairness, Dragic had the luxury of double screens to get open. I don't think the Rockets ever run a play with a double screen.

    look at Dragic's physique. It completely changed. It he looks like a stockier version of Steve nash and lefty. He looks physcially strong. there was a time, Nash just went bananas in Dallas and turned into that kind of all star. it was amazing to watch Nash and Nowitzki during that time.

    That's true. Even Melo doens't get this kind of hate in NY. and he's been blamed for many things.

    Instead of discussing what the team can do to better defend Dragic, people are too busy trolling fans. It gets annoying.

    Every fan should learn to use the ignore list. Let the trolls show their true colors. Let yourself and other true Rockets fans carry on with more meaningful discussion.

    Click on a poster's name and on their profile page click on "user list" then click on "Add to ignore list"

    I swear... If Lin ended up dead from some random tragic accident, there would be a significant amount of members on this board that would be creepingly satisfied. Clutch fuels the fire also.

    Hmmm, here we are 1-7 again from 3 point range. Still, we have 60 points!

    This forum is the joke of the basketball world because of the way and how often it hates on its own players. My solution is to banned those that obviously have yet to have their nuts dropped. Kids are annoying..

    Statistically Lin is a no show during playoff basketball he can only change that by showing up and maning up during pressure playoff games this year. The past won't change. All I ask for Lin to do today is play fearlessly with confidence and it appears he is not playing that way.

    LOL what fire does Clutch fuel? He is just a fan like the rest of us and has the right to say what he wants. And what he is saying is accurate which is based on the premise that Dragic is a way better player than Lin.

    Dont waste your time on people who get off on hating on our own players. So called real rox fans claim theres no such thing as LOHs have apparently never posted in a game thread before. this thread so far is a frigging embarassment to this community. The next time lin gors off for 30 pts and the so called real fans start pissing and moaning about the inevitable lofs running their mouths, i will simply post a link to this thread.

    Honestly eff Gorgi.
