Harden stoned AD in the post several times. Caused quite a few misses. But harden is elite post defender.

You know as well as I do what I was saying. Your team lost 2 solid defensive guys and is now trying to learn to play defense without them.

Harden actually is one of the best post defending guards in the NBA. His weakness as a defender is lateral quickness, which is not nearly as problematic in the post.

Rockets looked like hot garbage. Last year was the year to do anything. Paul’s injury crushed those dreams. The window is firmly shut

Then they should have been on the floor more. Coach D needs to figure out his rotations with the new squad if that is the case.

Last year. But you get the point.

James Harden ranks number 1 in post defense of all 73 players that have defended at least 40 post ups this season according to Synergy He also ranks 8th in isolation defense out of the 84 players that have defended at least 40 isolations “Bad defender”

MCW is a garbage player. But he played well in preseason so hope springs eternal. He is bad though.

Not Solomon Hill bad (is anyone that bad?), but still pretty bad.

C'mon man. He made a 3 and had that smart (probably accidental) foul before the end of the quarter. Show some respect.

have we talked about just how putrid the Rockets defense looked last night?

None of this "uhhh, it was a bad night for teh Rockets" bad.
No, it was borderline un-fixable bad. Like in CFB, you are firing the DC the next morning. Even in terms of BIG12 football...........that defense was complete arse.

AD, Mirotic, and Elfrid did whatever the frick they wanted last night and the Rockets had 0 answer. Elfrid, Elfrid Payton, Elfrid motherfricking Payton. You know the kid from ULL, then the Magic, who can't shoot to save his life..... Elfrid Payton, had his way with the Rockets defense en route to a triple double.

the Rockets didn't have a single player other than Ennis remotely close to an even +/-

if that Rox team shows up to play Golden State, the Warriors are gonna drop 200 on them.

Anyone who puts that much stock In one game clearly don’t know their nba. when CC is playing GOAT in game 7 WCF no one will care about this game, so we don’t care about it the day after. Being big picture is not good for message board fodder but it’s how I have always been.

I agree with you, but don’t tell me that you weren’t talking shite before this game. Just eat your crow and move on pal.

WCF is a long way off.

Carmelo
3 for 10.
24 minutes
3 boards no assists.

If carmelo avg 9 pts, 3 boards no assists in 24 minutes your rockets won't get out of round 1.

Hardin had to cover bigger men. He will do better most nights.
