    I just don’t get it Harden looked locked in game 1 and today just looks lazy on defense can’t hit a shot

    OKC 2 fouls total, 3x as many FTs. Interesting.

    They shut down Hardens drive. He's settling. They are packing the paint.

    Harden gotta take over.

    hope it’s not like 2018 where harden was amazing in Game 1’s and progressively got worse.

    it feels like we get an open 3 on every single possession. we've missed a bunch in a row but you would think that would pay off in the long run.

    Why does Harden shoot so badly against Dort? Gets open, gets to his spots and just misses. Happened in the regular season too, I don't get it

    This is about right. Shoot great game 1 and horrible game 2. That’s The Rockets.

    This is where we need Russ. If the shots don't fall we just keep settling

    Someone needs to attack.

    I hate that we've shot so well and are down. Thunder have adjusted and are playing well, but the lack of balanced officiating is maddening.

    Well...... were shooting well. Missed last 7 3ptrs lol.

    Harden has this weird habit of having great game 1s and then following them up with a dud. Exception is 2015 WCF where he had an amazing game 2.
