    slowly back away from your computer and take a deep breath. Do not panic. Breathe.

    It was shameful to see Brewer of all people go off like that. Parsons and Harden didn't do anything to stop him. McHale and the assistants also deserve a kick in the pants, along with the rest of the team.

    So the coaches need to have a scheme to stop a 11point per game player ? LMAO !! that's just lack of heart, effort and not wanting to be embarrassed.

    I understand why mchale was pissed, ok sure he's done his job by letting them know they need to play better peeimeter D and hustle more, he can't go out there and do it hisself

    LOL, apparently not. The end result is what counts. Harden played 40+ minutes and had no juice left. We are not talking about an ISO situation. Wanting Harden to go up against 3 players and thinking that it was a good play is beyond homerism.

    No it's a combination of Wolves play a little better than before, and Rockets just not playing any defense at all. Game loss is totally on Rockets. Haven't seen any semblance of good team defense in the past few games.

    So you don't think a coach should know how to tell players how to adjust to the other team's offense or a player who is playing well? Let's get real here, it's as much as the coach's fault as the effort of the players. It's a team game everyone plays a part. They don't need a schem per say but they definitely need to be able to adjust to things on the fly. It's like in a job, where someone new or change happens you don't expect you have to adapt and perform your job still deliver the project or task.

    Did people watch the kid at Louisville? He was consistent from mid-range.

    Exactly,it's not like he was on fire, hitting a bunch of contested shots! Out of the 51 points....only 4 shots werent layups/dunks!

    That point in itself is sad and pathetic because Harden had to be moved away from Brewer because he was too active for him. What other franchise 2 guard or SF can get away with switching off from a player of the caliber of Brewer??

    You are ON THE MONEY !!! All night I saw balls rolling around on the floor with our guys bending at the waist to try to scoop the ball up whereas the TWolves were diving on the floor and getting them...basically every single time.Just didn't want it. Asik plays what 24 minutes and can't cross mid court before 10-12 seconds have run off. Watched this for the last 2 years. Will be a quick exit if not fixed.
