    Lmao you can still defend without committing a foul. You can still stay in front of the player.

    You expect Harden to guard with his feet?

    The only aspect people praise Harden for on defense is his post defense which coincidentally requires the least amount of feet movement.

    I expect him to not let players blow by him at least, I’m not asking for lockdown defense. He can actually defends when he decides to play defense.

    The rockets are just old. Effort level os there. You can't make an old body move and the trailblazers was probably the worst team to play in a back to back after playing memphis.
    Terry stotts and the trailblazers motion, running around trying to guard CJ McCollum and Damien Lillard. Not going to happen when a team is old.
    As far as harden is concerned, who is going to score if not him. It is what it is.

    Will anyone call out James for his effort on defense? He sure likes to bark at dudes who miss assignments

    I am sure they will try to get a prestige win vs the Fakers.

    If they do, everything is wonderful for the time being until the next loss.

    It will be moar fun if goes to OT or end with a buzzer beater.

    Think we are short of Overtimes.

    I would like the most for rockets to beat them by 20, that would really convince most cf that rockets are just coasting and that would have opened a floodgate of haters vs the true fans discussions
