    Not even trolling (maybe a little but not really) but I say push it even further. All 4 guys set a wall of a pick and let Harden reign in 70 3s by himself like it’s a shoot around. Offensive line style. Mighty ducks V formation style down the court so pesky defenders can’t harass him at all. Once a quarter explode through the hole like a running back and slam it on a defense that has no idea how to defend this blatant shenaniganary.

    I’m seriously.

    Really though, I’d settle for fans of this team gulping a steaming hot cup of realizing that jacking up 3s makes this team harder to beat. 2 steaming hot cups if y’all can unlock the “injuries happen” mindset but one steaming hot cup at a time.

    nice idea...this may even improve our defense because transition defense would be less vulnerable

    We should have 1. Free throws 2. Layups 3. Threes mentality not the other way around

    I agree. Harden's 3 point accuracy is the only way to win the Championship now.
    Paul and Gordon are inconsistent and unreliable at 3 point line.
    You can't rely on midrange to win the championship now.

    Haha. They can run that globetrotters play where the offense makes a protective circle around Harden and they move as one unit down the court.
