Houston you have a problem

[RsxPiimp]

A. Your big man who has 1st option entitlement is past his athletic peak, has zero post game and is a foul machine. And no, Olajuwon won't make miracles.

B. Your Best offensive player is a huge liability on defense



This team is going to be really good, but they're not championship material until problem A accepts the fact he's a glorified Tyson Chandler at this stage of his career.

If you look at every dynasty, you know it's a matter of time before they win championships. Truth is Harden and Dwight aren't championship material.

[Venti Quattro]

Not necessarily a disaster because they're 3-1. But they play little defense and this is something that needs to be fixed before they hit the playoffs in April.

[RsxPiimp]

People might think its a knee jerk reaction but honestly it's not. Dwight need a top Level talent to be succesful. Harden, though elite is not the type of player that can carry Dwight's offensive liability.


I look at Dwight and he's just hopeless. He couldn't even dominate Gasol during his prime in 2009 and was successfully neutralized by San Antonio last year. He's a great defensive force but he has no post moves. Shaq, Olajuwon, Duncan. Heck even Gasol, can be counted on to score buckets when the game is on the line, Howard will clank FT's for you in crucial situations.

I understand why Houston is and should be excited, they got 10 x better and are possibly a contender with another move or so. But the Bball IQ from Howard+Harden is in the negatives.

Way too stupid and arrogant prick. Don't get me wrong, Kobe acted like Juwanna Mann per par. However, Dwight thinking he's going to lead a team to the title is hilarious.

Also, Harden usually puts up horrible numbers against the Clippers. NBATV brought up his stats, and in 13 games against the Clippers, he averaged 11..6 PPG in 36% shooting. That's terrible.

[Rogue]

Both Harden and DH could be excellent sidekicks to a great player but you can't expect them to lead a championship contender themselves. They are just not the right materials for you to make a Paul Pierce, Tim Duncan or Dirk Nowitzki tbh.

I feel Harden, like Melo will always be 2nd tier perimeter type of guys. I just don't think they have the ability to play great on both ends. Kobe, Wade for example during their prime can absolutely put their mind on the defensive end and be successful even in short spurts. Harden will score and set pick and rolls but that's the bottom line of his game. Harden would have to be absolutely amazing in the playoffs if they Houston wants to go deeper in the playoffs. I said before they still have the highest ceiling among NBA teams if they figure it out. NOt having Beverley out there also hurts them. CP3 was able to do anything he wants on Lin.

[HarlemHeat37]

:lol over-analyzing after 1 week of basketball, tbh..

I'm not going to bump this everytime Howard has a bad game. He didn't had a bad game against the Clippers when I created this thread.


As a fan of the game for so long, I or most fans can tell if certain talents can win a championship. Dwight is ana amzing talent even at 80% but his ship has sailed in Orlando. Unfortunately for him, he never had the right group of players to help him win a title, whether its Rashard, Gilbert or Vince.


Harden is elite, sure, but I can't see him elevating his game on both ends of the floor. The formula for championship 1-2 duo has always been the same and it's not going to change now.


Dwight is a liability on offense and Harden is a one trick pony.

Rin is an atrocious scrub and it's fair to say it was his yellow skin that earned him a Harvard degree and a job in NBA tbh.

Houston's problems in order of priority:

1. McHale
2. Lin
3. See 1


Kevin couldn't coach little league. If the Rockets are serious, they need to get a real coach who runs a real system. That hybrid SSOL shit Kevin is trying to run with Howard on the floor has been shown to be ineffective against even decent defenses. Big like Howard and Asik cannot occupy the same space in that system. They could work a half court offense much better, slow it down and get good looks. The problem is that Howard cannot hit a fucking FT, and so he's a poor choice for any post work because he's stoppable, unlike Shaq was.

The reason I don't call Howard a problem is because he's a known quality, and you just have to know where and how to apply it.

Time will tell if Houston gets their shit together, but that stuff they are doing right now isn't even basketball.

Harden has been artificially injected into the elite class of players, but the fact you can say "not on the defensive end" means he's not elite. Elite players play on both ends of the floor. A prime KG was a beast on both ends. Same for Duncan, same for Kobe, same for Lebron, same for Michael. These fucking volume shooters are not elite players. They are elite shooters, good ball handlers, make ok decisions on offense sometimes, but the league is so fucking watered down by chuckers that a non defending shooter is consider elite these days.

[Venti Quattro]

This is because of the video game mentality where players are expected to emulate stuff on video games. Fuck fundamentals when you're on a hot streak, right?

Case in point: The post game is a dying art because of monkeys who just prefer to jump over people and spear-chuck threes. Few players invest work and time on a post game, and guess what, these are the league's elites and champions.

Lakers and Rockets got fooled into thinking that Dwight was gonna solve his fundamental problems once he went into a contender. Guy's 27 and he still does not have a SINGLE post move that he can put into his memory and which he can do consistently.

he is a great scorer using the refs to his advantage. But he IS a bit overrated and the fact he is considered the best SG tells you how much the position has fallen off .. only center is worse in the league right now ... Sf/PG is stacked ..when the PG's are healthy. Paul George an ascendant star is probably only the third best Sf but if he goes back to SG he leapfrogs Harden tbh ...

[Mugen]

Harden is a huge faggot tbh. Hasn't gotten the criticism he deserves yet because Spurfan was happy to see him leave OKC but he just doesn't have the same talent/athleticism as prime Kirby or Wade and arguably even Manu.

And spurfan says Kobe only plays one side of the floor, Kobe is 35 and has a lot of mileage and heavy offensive duties. Harden is a young dude and his defense is already atrocious, if this is the best the shooting guard position has to offer nowadays, the NBA is heading to a bad place.


http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NIyiEc1741s

5. Harden (mchale's?) reliance on iso and pnr that gets stifled by better teams (see Heat in finals)

1. Neither player makes that decision, that's up to the coach.
2. Never. Most NBA greats cannot coach worth a fuck because they never studied the game as much as people who struggled to stay in the NBA.
3. Known going into the season. If that's a problem, so is the fact that he cannot play the post. It's what they bought.
4. That's up to the coach as well
5. More coach

Leading in what way? In defense? In rotations? In scoring? What?

he was the one with the ball in his hands late in the games during the whole POs, he was making plays, feeding Durant, drawing fools and scoring. Westbrick was just making bad decisions after bad decisions. The alpha of that team when the game was in line was Harden.

He sucked in the finals tho no denial here but saying he made ok decisions on offense sometimes is harsh
