    Mavs knock of OKC and we can't even compete with a Curry less squad. Sad day

    Harden is scared.

    When Dwight goes for the ball contest, there is nobody rotating behind him.
    Classic Rockets - don't know what "boxout" means.

    ? Dwight is actually playing solid defense. Changed quite a few shots not to mention one block. How is he supposed to defend a guy who blows buy their guy and get a rebound at the same time?

    We are switching on everything, the Warriors know it, Thompson may get 50 shots off tonight as they keep pick and rolling with D-Mo's man and switching.

    Because that's their defensive system. It makes absolutely no sense and hasn't worked all year, but they keep doing it.

    Not that I'm a Howard fan, but I wouldn't mind seeing walk up to Harden and slap him across the face the next time he (Harden) gives him (Howard) a dirty look after allowing his man to beat him that easily.

    No accountability for our "superstar" unfortunately.

    Harden gets clobbered with no call. That's hard to ignore, but you got to shake it off Harden or you'll get blown by on the other end. Shake it off and stay aggressive.

    Yeah James got blown by

    But Dwight wasn't paying ANY attention to the rim, gave up an easy slam. If he was even looking in that direction it wouldn't have happened

    Of course we can't catch a freaking basketball.

    And there was a time when Centers would go up for the block, regardless of the situation. I'm tired of watching our centers just stand and watch.

    Bricking shots and getting outrebounded...again. Harden has to stop looking for those calls and get back on defense.

    Looks like the rest of the team isn't trying to float in Harden's orbit. Plus when he doesn't get a call?

    He sort of folds his tent.
