    Lol. The only players better in the 05 team was Yao and Deke. This team would sweep the 05 team

    Doesn't mean anything, sure he wants to keep playing plenty of games, but he probably will not give up his principles to stick to that 8-9 man rotation. If he really wants to, he could play him.

    Better off comparing this to the 08 (09?) team that lost in 7 to the champion Lakers due to major injuries.

    MDA says the right thing but I hope he does what he says. With Klay and Steph both gone the Rox need to be 100% healthy and rested by the playoffs so we can take advantage of that.

    James Harden is MVP level for 5 years, is healthy and durable. Tracy McGrady has never been an MVP caliber player, is injury prone his bone mass and body mass is thin, He quit on the Rockets many times.

    I think JJ is just playing nice. We don’t need nice JJ. We need grumpy old man Johnson lol..damn that sounded weird.

    He just seems hesitant on letting 3s fly. Like his shot isn’t saying really I don’t want to do this but y’all told me to sooo...brick? But I’ve see him make a handful of veteran moves to get guys a shot and it just doesn’t connect for an assist. Especially off the block, he gets guys open. So there Is something to be said about his veteran-ness. Instinct. That’s a worthy commodity and there’s s place for it.

    Green is just a match covered in gas c9ming off the bench. And there’s a place for that too.

    I’m guilty of It to an extent, but green and JJ play together on the same team.
