Dwight Howard and James Harden get mad at each other against Jazz (Video)
After Dwight Howard failed to leap for a lob from James Harden, the two got mad at each other on the court.
The Houston Rockets and Utah Jazz are meeting in an important game on Tuesday night, as the two teams battle for one of the final playoff spots in the Western Conference. During the game, the Rockets’ two stars ended up having a bit of miscommunication with each other.
While James Harden looked like he was going to shoot from the top of the key, he instead lobbed it to Dwight Howard. The problem was that Howard didn’t think it was a lob and didn’t try to go up for it. The ball would bounce off the backboard and would end up in the hands of the Jazz.
After the miscommunication, Howard threw up his hands in frustration and Harden had an overly exaggerated leap for good measure as he voiced his displeasure with his big man.
Everyone knows the Rockets aren’t in a good spot right now and it’s been reported that the two have been having problems with each other. While they try to say that there are no issues between Howard and Harden, this little incident on the court certainly won’t put the fire out.
The Rockets clearly have a chemistry issue on and off the court.
