A marvelous work is about to come forth...Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

I get what they’re trying to do here on defense, letting Harden get past them and then trailing to prevent the step back or crossover. But I’m not sure it’s going to work if they can’t defend both the corner 3 and the lob.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss
There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

Originally posted by creekster View PostNot sure thats whats happening. I think they are trying very hard to make harden go to his right. But they are shading so hard to that side that Harden is going past the primary ball defender and to the hole with ease. They are changing it up this half, I think.
But as Cardiac pointed out, there has to be at least some disruption or he’ll just get a clear path and either and easy lay in or a wide open kick out.Prepare to put mustard on those words, for you will soon be consuming them, along with this slice of humble pie that comes direct from the oven of shame set at gas mark “egg on your face”! -- Moss

Originally posted by Donuthole View PostIts exactly what’s happening. They are chasing him off the 3pt line. Of course they are going to force him to his weak hand when they do it. But their objective is to get him away from the 3pt line and make him score off the dribble or make the other players on the team make shots.

Houston is just a tough out for the Jazz. The real problem isnt Harden's offense, it was the lack of Jazz offense.PLesa excuse the tpyos.

Originally posted by creekster View PostWell, you are certainly right that it is what is happening. And honestly there isn't much difference, in effect, between what we are saying. But IMO They are not chasing him to the hole to avoid a step or pass back. I think they are chasing him because he blew past the primary ball defender. They aren't trying to make him go past them to the right side, they are trying to force him off the line and away from a shot and move him right, but his first step is too fast for Oneal or Mitchell or anyone else on the jazz except Exum, who is obviously out.

But Utah has been awful trying to play Harden straight up, so something outside the box was worth a shot. And yes, they aren’t going to be able to score in the 90s and win games this series.
