    Before he hit that 3, there were 6 Thunder with more points than Harden.

    this is an okc game.

    they have all the confidence.

    the rockets are a mentally weak team and will crack the more this game goes on.

    It's almost like Harden want's to fail. I don't understand it. We can't win with role players shooting threes all night.

    They have twice as many fouls called for them and free throws. Refs definitely controlling this one so far.

    Who would have thunk we'd be killed lighted up by Dort?

    Game 7....anything can.....and apparently will happen. That's why you don't want to play them.

    Dort making these fluke shots and we are missing our 3s. Nobody to blame but ourselves putting yourself in that position where anything can happen in one game. You want to play the percentages but in one game it don’t matter.

    The pace and vibe of the game is really favoring OKC. They just can't miss.

    Still close, but impossible to trust houston in close games.

    The formula we are running with right now is a loser.

    He plays with no urgency in these games. He just walks around everywhere. I just don't understand him.

    Harden and Westbrook have to step up. It's really that simple. Stop driving and kicking so damn much, enforce your will on the game, take over.

    You drive and kick and that's what they want you to do. Not like the Rockets shooters have been lighting it up.

    Still got hope for the third but this is looking like same old same old. Jacking up a bunch of shots and wasting posessions.

    Harden, you are a top 3 player in the NBA. Start playing like one. Even Doncic in his 2nd year can take over the ****ing game. We are not going to win letting the role players brick 3s.

    Of course punk ass OKC starts hitting every 3... hopefully these bums are filling up their quota in the 1st half & start firing blanks in the 2nd half *Fingers crossed*
