What the fukk is defense in the NBA?
The pace of the games have gotten much faster, my guess is that players are gassed more often than not which leaves only but so much defense to be played

There's a reason why the best defensive teams tend to play at slower paces. GSW is the rare team that plays great defense and runs a high paced offense.

Houston
35 minutes but the last 5 of those were spent trying to break Calvin Murphy’s franchise record and Utah was hacking him before he could shoot:wow:

Also passed Moses Malone for 5th all time in Rockets franchise history:mjgrin:

Jazz actually took a timeout for the crowd to give him an ovation:wow:

Harden ain't ya ordinary baller. He scored 56 on 26 shots.


Bradley Beal had and awesome game tonight too. He scored 38 on 26 shots. Harden had 18 more points on 1 less shot.

Back when Harden was playing the 2guard exclusively, you had jokers trying to say Beal and Klay were better at the position:mjlol:

Crazy thing is Houston isn't even playing as fast as last season. They're average in pace this year(not even top 10 in pace so far this year). It'll go up but the league hasn't even seen us on our shyt, yet.

As if 19/25 isn't still excellent:comeon:
:usure:

Never said that it was/wasn't. Good for him, he had a great shooting night - it makes a change from his inconsistent/inefficient season so far, where he's been hamming for calls but the refs have kept their whistles in their pockets.

Talk about alternative facts :laff:

He was 10/10 in the first quarter too.:wow:

What were the "alternative facts" in that post of mine?

:usure:

You think they gave him first Player Of The Week award for being inefficient?:mjlol:

You mad that he's outplaying Curry once again even though the refs giving Curry every call and giving Harden none. These cacs and their narrative can't stop the Beard.:wow:

That was only THREE games worth. And that was largely to do with the fact the Rockets beat GS in the season opener, if Houston doesn't win that game he probably wouldn't have won that award (how pathetic do you have to be, to beat your chest over a Player Of The Week award. Oh, I guess not, since it's the best award that he's received).

What about the game where he was inefficient against the Kings?
What about the game where he was inefficient against the Grizzlies?
What about the game where he was inefficient against the Grizzlies, again?
What about the game where he was inefficient against the 76ers?
What about the game where he was inefficient against the Knicks?

Seems to me calling his season thus far, inconsistent/inefficient, isn't really an "alternative fact" at all.
You mad that he's outplaying Curry once again
You mean just like last season where he choked against a Kawhi-less Spurs team?

:jbhmm:

Seems like to me you're the one with the "alternative facts".
