[...] the Houston shooting guard didn't know what it would be."He's one of the best that we have in this league," Harden said of Warriors defensive coordinator Ron Adams.After Harden averaged 33 points on 58.5 percent shooting from the floor (44.4 percent on three-pointers) in the first two games of the Western Conference finals, he couldn't keep it going in Game 3.Draymond Green also sagged off Josh Smith, making the Warriors' power forward a consistent candidate to play help defense, switch on to Harden or double-team him.Harden, the last Rockets starter to score, shot just 3-of-16 from the floor (1-of-5 on threes) and finished with 17 points.When I look at someone guarding another player, I look at their footwork, the intensity of their shot challenge and what (teammates) have done to help him through that process.
