    I don't think anyone expected Wes to shut down Harden, but he made him work for every damn shot. We were able to single coverage Harden for most of the series, which was nice because it allowed us to double Howard at times. Obviously Wes didn't guard Harden all the time, but he was on Harden most of the series. I think he had a huge factor in making Harden shoot very poorly.

    Wes is going to be huge this next series. I have a good feeling he's going to spend a good amount of time guarding Parker, as he seems to be our best guy at getting around screens.

    Your eyes told us we should tank the season so I'm glad nobody that matters agrees with them
