If Harden doesnt score 35+ each and every game Houston is in trouble.

A team dependent on ONE person like Houston is will NOT be champs...quote, unquote.





Damn, all of this is based on 1 playoff game? Houston is deep as hell and you seen how they played all year yet you let 1 game lead you to conclude that houston is a 1 man team?
Why couldn't you allow yourself to conclude that even though every man not name harden stunk last night, they still beat a good minny team....?

When Harden "goes" so goes the Rockets. Go back and look at the games where Harden scored less than 30. Hint: rhymes with boss.

 

Chris "sometimes shows up Paul" and Trevor "past his prime Ariza" wont make up for Harden's bad game when he has one. Capella's been doing decent so I wont slam him.

 

Harden scored 38 and 40 in his games against Toronto. Results: 2 losses. What amount of points will Harden HAVE TO score(60-70?) to beat Toronto.

 

The Minn team I saw last night was so out of synch the should have blown them out by 20+. Dumb basketball execution by Minn on the offensive side. It was the Minn defense which kept it close.

 

Nobody would be in awe of that Minn team last night...

Pretty much.. Who is the 5th player that will get it done? What is different about Houston's bench that will get it done against Toronto this time?

LMAO. They won 60+ games. I guess Harden is a one man wrecking crew. Have you watched the regular season at all?

Qwan - the point is you can base a team off 82 games and you shouldn’t base an opinion on one playoff game. Especially when they shot terribly and still the game was never in doubt from my point of view.

Warriors definitley still the favorite but I’d be excited if we get rockets warriors. It would be a lot of fun to watch.

Warriors are still the favorite no matter what anyone thinks or says...until someone in the west beats them in a 7 game series, they are top dog...and just imagine the boost they will get from Curry when the games really start to matter...they won the 1st rd sweepstakes getting the Spurs...practically a 2 week vacation for them to tune up for the next rd, while everyone else find themselves in a battle to survive and move on. The Warriors organization are no dummies here folks...it's all about getting to the finals for this team, the entire season was just practice

Poor shooting tho comes with better defense. Minn at least did that right in game 1.

Do I think the Rockets can play better? Yep. Do I think Minn can also play better? Yep.

 

Harden puts in 44 against Minn and Houston wins by 3? If I'm a Houston fan.....I'm concerned. What is he had an off game?

If Harden does not perform then the Rockets lose.

Here you go again. Our argument was that houston is not a 1 man team. If you want to claim that your Toronto Raptors is better so be it but your argument is not valid.  You didn't even know who Eric Gordon was...

I'll bet Toronto is biting it's nails in FEAR of Eric Gordon who LIT THEM UP for 12 and 14 points.

Unwittingly, you are arguing MY ARGUMENT of Houston being essentially a one man team.

Qwan61, 
Houston is a 1 man team that won 65+ games and Harden is the 1 man and if he stinks it up then the rockets are done, that is your argument correct?
So out of 82 games, harden stunk it up 15 games according to you because they lost and no one else could have stepped in and win it. So how many games do you think he will stink it up in the playoffs?

Really...people dont read or remember one or the other.


You can check Houston's results when Harden didnt score above 30. Report back.


Now for ABOUT AS DIRECT as it gets:( I'm done commenting on this thread...yippee for the Houston fans not in touch with reality)


Rockets went 4-3 when Harden was out. Get it? Is that the SAME powerhouse team?
