Yeah but isn't it the story that Tilman pretty much forced the Westbrook trade and surely Tilman has looked to cut costs not push for competitive players that made the team better. All these garbage heap players ,like Thabo, Chandler Mclemore, these are bargain shopper scrap heap players, that's got to be on Fertita and his tightwad wallet
This game already an L but D'antoni will still play Harden 35+ mins when their is a game tomorrow. Harden will probably try to stay in regardless to get his numbers. He's becoming one of those stat chasers on a bad team type of players.
The only promising thing from this is I feel it’s going to break the locker room and everyone is gonna do some real soul searching lol
This dummy really has the nerve to mention defense with a straight face when we are playing strict midget ball
Clemons changed the tone of the game. They better give him more minutes. Harden is starting to look like Harden but they kicked our ass so hard that we still have to beat them by 12.5 points per quarter in the second half just to tie the game up.
The only thing Rocket fans are going to look forward to by the end of the season is another scoring title for Harden.
"They're playing harder on both ends. Easy to say it was bad defense but our offense didn't help our defense. It's both ends. We gotta play harder & more together. You can't say "Starting tomorrow, we'll communicate better." It takes time. We're working through that right now. We've had possessions where it's really good and some where it's really bad. It's gotta be more really good and less really bad. We can't fix that problem in one game."
Jeez, our effort improved but the hole we created in the first quarter is a lot to attempt to overcome.
