This is a huge game for both teams/franchises..Two games ago McHale took Harden off the ball because he wanted the other players to get their game going..I'm thinking McHale thinks he can't win a Championship with just Harden going for his...It's interesting because Harden does pass the ball but it is almost impossible for another player to get hot and take over when he is in the game because he doesn't come up court looking for u...Harden needs the ball in his hands to be effective..But if he has the ball no one else gets going..DHow and Josh Smith gets going when Harden is on the bench..Should they lose, what does this mean for Houston??

Clippers folded like a cheap tent..If they lose they can't trade CP3 or Blake...But they will need help..Interesting game coming up...

while this may be partly true about Harden, this can be set about a number of star players that don't look for their teammates and look to score too much (like our leader).

At least Harden does pass the ball sometimes.

Everyone can improve their game.

so here is what phil is thinking ....

clips not showing focus, intensity, will
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

That's the tragic thing about him- he can play good defence, which means when he chooses not to, he really chooses not to!

it is a valid knock on him.

Seriously though, do you hold carmelo to the same standard?

Yes! Melo can play good d and chooses not to because he wants to use all his energy hoisting shots- my wish is for him to take a step back on offense and add more balance to his game- getting late in the day though.

blake is such a great passer.

I am not feeling good about this game. Houston is getting killed on the picks.
