    He probably was , the man does a lot for this team. Mchale should know this and should find easier ways to get him the ball.

    Agreed the playoffs are a lot more physical and the refs tends to swallow the whistle often. So him and Mchale better be ready or we will witness another first round exit.

    Are we going to have to work on liking each other again?

    Can only imagine McHale's rallying cry...

    I'm a big believer in team chemistry.

    This needs to get fixed.

    Harden showed his old self last night defensively. Awful.

    It wasn't just Harden. Most of the team was slacking off yesterday. They scored so easily in the first quarter that they just assumed they'd coast to a win. I knew they were in trouble from the first few minutes. When you're up only 4 points despite shooting 67% while the other team is in the 40's, you're gonna find yourself down big when those shots stop falling. Which is exactly what happened in the 3rd quarter.

    I'll give them props for avoiding 3-game losing streaks, but the reverse is also worth noting. They have trouble putting together winning streaks longer than 3-4 games because they get complacent and arrogant after stringing together a few victories.

    I knew when the commentator said that we had never swept the Suns

    Good I'm glad they are working on Chemistry it's becoming non existent. Now we need to work on Hardens heart when his shot isn't falling and the refs swallow their whistles.

    Looks like the Mavs are getting run over by the Suns as we speak...

    The mavs are the rockets from last year. Offense on paper but can't get any stops.

    Rondo's at least made them somewhat competent defensively since he got there, but he also zaps their offense to the point where his defense doesn't make up for it.

    I'm sure you said the exact same thing after we beat the Cavs and the Clippers.

    Calm down folks, injuries on our front lines. Wait till TJ and Dwight is back on the floor before we speak. However, I would love Harden to go back to the Denver Harden.. Attack EARLY in the game.
