Listen to Ben Maller explain why the Houston Rockets and their fans now have an extremely convenient built-in excuse should they likely continue down their road to perdition versus the Golden State Warriors.
Rockets star James Harden suffered a slightly disturbing eye injury after getting prodded in the face by fabled cheap shot artist Draymond Green and would leave Tuesday’s Game 2 contest briefly, before returning to the game with uncanny red eyes.
Harden would finish the game with 29 points on 9 of 19 shooting but was seen squinting and rubbing his eyes throughout the rest of the game (mostly on defense).
Check out the audio below as Maller says it’s just another EXCUSE from the Rockets.
