You mean Mchale is a jelly fish, I never seen he bench Harden. If Popovici coach this team, I guarantee this situation will never happen again.
HE SETTLES FOR THE 3PT SHOT WAY TO MUCH AND JUST HAS 0 CONFIDENCE IN A MIDRANGE JUMPER EVEN THOUGH THE TEAMS GIVE IT TO HIM. HE LOST THE GAME TONIGHT WITH DECISION MAKING ERRORS
Shows the kind of person Harden is. His ego is through the roof now after that 80 mil contract. He's also probably acting passive-aggressive after given the boot by the thunder. The coaching staff/GM needs to either reign him in or trade him before he becomes a cancer. As good as he is, if Harden is going to continue having this prima dona attitude, we're not winning anything.
Really, I'm a LOF, but I really think the Rockets need an elite PG, like Chris Paul, just so that the PG can demand the ball and make decisions, and Harden will be free to slash, come off curls, sprinkle in some PnRs...you know, play like a SG
Which feed were you watching where you could hear what Harden and Mchale were saying? I'll have to check that one out next time.
Could quite possibly by true. But, hey, where were you at age 23? I can't lie, I do not know more than a handful of people who would be able to actually handle those responsibilities.
Both teams were playing playoff-level defence today - plus, I suspect Harden is injured, so no blames on the offensive end (despite how ugly it looked for the whole team). We lost on the boards because we couldn't counter their Bigs.
