Go Rockets!

Dwight isn't really protecting the paint but he isn't giving up offensive boards and has been very effective on offense. I can live with that. Hopefully he just has another gear in the playoffs, defensively.

I'm thinking that we may have an entirely different looking roster in a few weeks.

Maybe. Kinda hard because of Hard cap. If we could get Joe Johnson for Brew and Ty I'd be happy. Ty has went back to sucking and Joe has been better. Brooklyn probably only team willing to take a chance on Ty.

This lineup doesn't freaking work. Now they can get a big switched into a guard whenever they want. Especially when the other team ha a small ball four

"We can't score with Dwight and Clint on the floor or get out on shooters!? I wonder why!? Must be a coincidence"
-JBB probably.

Clint is not a four and this is exactly why.

JBB deserves to be fired. He puts this lineup in when they were up two. They make a huge run getting open threes while we can't get the ball into the paint because no spacing. He calls two timeouts and leaves the lineup in. How sense can you be. Think it's a coincidence harden wasn't turning the ball over until JBB started this? Because it's not. When there's no space he can't make the pocket passes he likes. This lineup worked once and now JBBs dumbass thinks it's a permanent solution even though it hasn't worked since and it's what has us so far behind in this game. McHale was 10x the coach this guy is.

Portland has adjusted to Dwight killing them inside. JBB doesn't realize this and has them keep trying to feed Dwight. You have to adjust dude.

If I had a dollar for everytime I saw Dwight watch from five feet away as his guy drained a jumper I would buy the rockets and fire JB.

They have to foul because everyone's out of position because they're blitzing pick and rolls for no real reason

I don't see Harden leading this team to a championship. All this team is missing is effort. McHale was right on one thing, guys need to play harder. Not running back on transition defense. Not making the extra effort to close out on perimeter shooters.

You need some form of leadership to make a team produce every night. Look at all the teams who contend. The team captain leads by example or the coach holds everyone accountable. Harden does the exact opposite. As the team slacks off on defense and moral worsens, Harden follows suit. Lazy passes, disconnected on defense, just all round poor body language. The only person I see who calls guys out and tries to lead a defense is Howard. However, he seems physically incapable of playing at that level all game.
