The refs are grown men that get paid to do their jobs.
If them making bad calls is somehow James Harden's fault, then there is nothing he can do to about that.
Kinda ridiculous of a claim but cool.

agree to disagree. I need my clear cut best player to be there in the 4th. My fault I guess. He did his job for 3Q. Next time, be their at the end for me. I guess I'm demanding.

Harden played well for 75% of the game. What do you mean that's not good enough?

Harden off ball stuff, BENCH WESTBROOK, and play though EG as soon as the Lakers break out the double.
After last game I did EG needed to be out there alongside Westbrook when Harden Sat but when I watched Westbrook not pass the ball and do a bunch of nonsense. 38 million dollars and multiple knee surgeries glad it's not my team.

And when that isn't available for him to take advantage of what happens? You're almost there...

Don't think the Rockets are out of this series yet. Win game 4 and it's 2-2.
That being said, if they lose this series they really gotta reevaluate the Harden thing if they don't wanna blow it up. There's no way to add any real talent w/Harden Russ and EG's deals, so improvement is going to have to come within and it could start with moving harden around and him diversifying where he scores his points and where he catches the ball.
The CP3 for Russ thing is a killer because he has to be a PG which hurts in the playoffs against really good defenses. Wish Harden could be more of a wing than a point.

Every single all time great has been asked to play big in the playoffs and been criticized when they don't. All of them have had great moments in big games but all of a sudden the rules should change for Harden?
All those 45-50 point triple doubles y'all get googly eyes for, where they at?? He's unguardable right?

Harden could have been more assertive in the 4th. Why can that be said instead of discrediting the whole game?

Who is suggesting the rules should be different for Harden?
Where is this narrative coming from?

Because the game was decided in the 4th. The 4th quarter was the game.

I hear you on that. I don't think it's demanding. But, I do think it would be nice if MDA would actually put him in at the beginning of the 4th, so he doesn't have to come into the game with his team already in a hole and having to play catchup. Even with that said, yes, he could have and should have been better in the 4th.
I just think there needs to be more nuance than, this player was awesome for 3 quarters and then not so great in the 4th, so he didn't have a good game.

and this is not an attempt at a reverse jink. Doesn't matter if Houston wins game 2.
Alright lol I'm not too invested in this series. This series is more fun for me. I truly think Hou can win this series but if they don't, idc.
As long as we handle business against Denver.

James Harden would win a chip if he became 6th man on the Lakers behind Bron, AD, and Rondo.

Asking a all-time great scorer to score in the 4th is too much now.
