    what dont you understand?? They have Klay Curry Durant, we switch on every possession and over play the 3, So they just slip inside to counter

    CP3 playing like the point god we know he is. This is one of those games where Harden needs to recognize and understand the offense is flowing.

    Hard to look like yourself when youre a playmaking pointguard standing around watching someone dribble for 20 seconds.

    James should do that more .. waive off a screen when guarded by Iguadala. At this stage of his career, Iggy doesn't have legs to stay in front of Harden

    Every time CP3 handles the rock, he creates beautiful offense. We NEED him to bring the ball up more!

    It sucks that CP3 is old and washed up. A prime CP3 on this team would be unbeatable.

    Or when you’re scared of injury and don’t want to create offensively.

    i said this in the utah series, but IDK why we dont play james off ball more often. let CP play his natural position, especially when teams are loading up so heavy on james. it can open things up for the offense

    That was Paul’s fault he just let him by because he thought capela was back there i guess

    It's crazy how everyone backs 5 ft off Green and yet he still finds an open teammate on a curl or backdoor cut... When he has the ball, stay with your ****in man!.. No need to even think of helping..

    I couldn't agree more. Everyone was playing great and James came back in and slowed it all down to dribble dribble dribble. I like Paul running the show so much better!!!

    Rockets look a lot better when one player isn’t dribbling the clock down every possession.
