    One of the oldest players in the NBA playing high minutes since the season started. It will continue to get ugly if they don’t reign in his minutes.

    If Harden is concussed, then he shouldn't even be playing. That's pretty simple.

    No. It's fine to complain about Harden when he's having horrible games or whatnot. But these guys always come out as soon as he's having a terrible game. They stay away for his good games.

    Harden need to defer & just get double digit assists and let Russ do his thing in his return

    12-point deficit could be worse.

    We need to shoot our open shots and try harder on defense.

    Rockets got their bad shooting half out of the way.. Nothing to worry about. I get more worried when the Rockets shoot lights out to begin with.

    OKC is
    He’s old and Dan Toni plays his 36 minutes a game and half those minutes are guarding bigs.

    it’s about time it has caught up.

    To be down 12 is a miracle.

    If Harden shows up we win going away.

    I love that Russ is working on the post more, and going towards the rim on his post shots outside of one post fadeaway. I always say he should rely on his post game more especially with his size advantage on most guards.

    This is still very much winnable, we played bad first half and they played out of their minds and the gap ga only 12, let's calm down.
