    Harden is a major part of the offense, so when he's shut down, where can you go? We tried with Dwight, but he can only do so much. Our wing players should fire more, even if they're not open.

    I guess, Spurs have played "bad" for a good while too. It's the ups and downs of a seasosn.

    I'm talking about this jekyl/hyde behavior.

    Next win.

    "We are forreal!"
    "How good can we be if..."
    "Harden MVP!"

    Next loss
    "We suck, fire everyone."
    "Harden is a fraud!"
    "We need to make a trade!"

    Its just crazy that when dwight plays well we just don't win. The way you beat the rockets is to allow dwight to have his points. It literally takes Harden out of the game.

    You don't pay 20mil for a guy to do that 1 every 5 games.

    Uh, when your team isn't even trying out there on defense and is down 22 points, you're lucky if the fans aren't heading for the exits. Now if the Rockets were down 10 and busting their asses out there, then yes the fans should and usually do try to cheer them on. Even in this town. The Wizards game is a good example.

    That's because they have no offensive identity. Kobe and Shaq had the triangle.

    I don't think it's time to bust out the razors or anything, but if ANYTHING you've seen this whole season has given you the impression that Houston is anywhere close to GSWs level than you haven't been paying attention. Their defense is rated slightly higher than ours, and their offense is rated MUCH higher than ours.

    Dude these are the game that count not the ones vs non-playoffs teams. Although you are right one game does not count, this will give 100 reasons to vote for Curry and not Harden.

    Mchale saw this small line up 3 times and he still had no answer. Maybe Pop could have had some time on green
