    4-25 from 3 is such a joke...I’m getting tired of this

    I’ve never seen a team of so many bricklayers just keep jacking it up like there’s a bunch of Korvers or Currys on this team...

    smh, Moreyball is so painful to watch at times

    Get a defensive coach in here.

    Mike is a clown when it comes to defense.

    Rebounds and low percentage 3 points will kill Houston. Put Eric Gordon in the bench better.

    The system of shooting 3s is legit, we just need better 3 point shooters!

    He might need to be our next coach
    With John Lucas on the bench with him

    Turner just sits there like a bump on a log. Why is he even here? They’re just doing the same switching defense like last year but with worst personnel and a worse defensive coach.

    Embarrassing defense. Just don’t even show up if you’re not going to try.

    Harden continues to suck. Shooting continues to suck.

    Another bad loss on the way

    This offense has one hand tied behind their back with the only shoot 3s.

    Maybe they give Chris Clemons a try since Ben Mc already stunk it up.

    At least they are playing Nipsey at halftime so I can get some enjoyment out of this.

    Harden was amazing at scoring last season, BUT one worrying thing he started incorporating into his game was mass spamming almost only 3 point shots, regardless if he was hitting or not.

    The past three games are indicative of this problem. Instead of attacking the basket and trying to score via layup, floater or midrange, almost 90% of his shot attempts are from 3 point. He's a career 35ish% 3 point shooter... maybe take more than 2 shots inside the arc? 11 shots - 9 are of the step back three variety.
