The way Houston played in the first two games approved McFail's coaching and Harden's running the game don't work. Without change, Houston will get swept by Blazers.
So why not try play team basketball?!
Put the ball in Lin's hands and let Lin runs the game, Lin may miss shoot, TO or whatever, but we don't think it will be worse than Harden. Play Lin's style is not let Lin plays ISO and everbody just stands still. Play pick&roll, attack the rim. I think with Lin runs the game, everyone will get involved, get better ball movement. For defense, double team Aldridge or just let he goes, defense others.
At the end, Houston will out score Blazers!! Houston win, 55% to 45% game.
