You should get benched for running by a 3 point shooter so they get to sidestep and take an in rhythm shot. It makes no sense to me.

That should be a foul on Harden for getting his arm out there and on Gasol like that. I hate that bullshit.

Pop makes major fundamental lineup mistakes every time it seems. I appreciate him for what he does to marginal players but his mistakes are killing the Spurs.

I hate James Harden, but I love drilling step back 3s over tall white people. I'm conflicted.

james harden is really significantly better at defending big men than guards and i think this could be an interesting fact long term if the rockets want to employ going small more

Small chance of that...

Harden is low-key strong as gently caress and it surprises everyone still.

i think the major downside is if it wears him down and/or gets him in foul trouble to defend in the post a lot, but otherwise if the rockets want to play small it really gives them an option

I don't particularly like this start for the Spurs, but then again I never do.

It's weird to watch Anderson rocket propel himself into a defender and get the call and then Harden do much less and get called for an offensive foul. That Anderson play should not be a foul, defenders get to exist, launching yourself at them shouldn't be a foul.

Thats a nice Game 7 you have there. Would be a shame if somebody nailed it down.

End of 1stQ: Harden has 15 of #Rockets 29 pts. 5 of their 10 rebs. 3 of their 5 assists

harden pretty much willed Houston through that quarter which is fine but the rest of the team needs to start doing things
