Rockets analyst Calvin Murphy caught on hot mic criticizing James Harden before cut to commercial

Rockets analyst Calvin Murphy unintentionally told everyone how he really felt after Houston's 114-107 loss to Indiana on Wednesday night. The Hall of Famer offered some harsh criticism of Rockets star James Harden, who had 15 points (5-of-14 shooting), 12 assists and four rebounds against the Pacers. During the AT&T SportsNet Southwest postgame show, Murphy initially put on kid gloves, noting that Harden did make up for a poor scoring night with his playmaking.
