Harden on initiators is never a good idea. I know they want Luc as a help defender but this is poor strategy.
They did the same thing with the Mavs before pulling away. I don't like that either. But then against they gave the bench the 20 pooping lead and the bench promptly gave that lead away and the final score looked closer than it really was.
Through broken plays and semi-transition. Their half-court execution was brutal at-best. I'm gonna take a look at NBAWOWY to see what Harden + Paul lineups have been doing as of late.
I'm sure you don't like my ideas. Phoenix is a bad offense killing the Rockets in halfcourt at home. Harden can't keep up with Booker off the dribble and is poor at fighting through screens. It's bad strategy to put him on Booker because it forces the defense to over-help and opens up god knows what.
Phx is a bad offense. Well that's false. Killing? Do they have more points than the rockets. Doesn't look like it. Your complaining about nothing
PHX is literally a bottom 3 offense in the NBA. They are on pace for somewhere in the 110 range. And yes, killing them. Forcing switches(those screens as I said), getting on the offensive glass(switching causes bad matchups in terms of boxing out) and in the first half they lived at the line because they got into the lane at-will. Terrific logic though, sir. My ideas are clearly worse than yours.
