    Maybe, but he definitely seems hesitant to take it anytime he has a big with length on him.

    If the officiating continues as it's been so far...he won't need to "will" anything. Hard to compete 5 on 8.

    Westbrook literally shot his team out of the game in Game 1.

    This is why you have role players to pick up the slack. If we lose games because Harden doesn't drop 35/12/10 every game then we never had a chance to begin with.

    I think they need to consider double teaming EB and forcing the ball out of his hands.

    I know right .. if anything with the emergence of Dekker I'd say Anderson is expendable.

    Waiting on the Rockets to play a hint of defense. They are just letting Westbrook shoot all damn day.

    UNREAL lack of rebounding effort...if you don't want to play, go sit your arse down.

    so westbrook is going to make long contested 2 after long contested 2? when we can't make an open shot?

    really would have been nice to trade some of that awful 6-23 for tonight when it's actually a close game.
