    Like he's going to the Oscars.

    I think we'll see something absolutely amazing from Harden tonight. He can't be ignorant of how people (myself included) have been slagging their play these last few games. Harden usually nuts up for this kind of competition.

    I can't wait. I'm envious of those of you who will get to see this in person.

    he was never going to play two centers at the same time. That lineup would Be stupid. It merely meant not play the small ball lineup much this game. And either capela or chandler being in the game for the most part

    I knew it was going to be stupid when I saw that StubHub's cheapest ticket was something like 167..

    Lot of excitement for this and not a lot else going on, right Texans?

    Hartenstein probably can’t wait to get out of Houston so he can actually get a real chance at a career. MDA just hates the dude.

    Majority of Houston in 2020 are exports of other cities. A lot of bandwagon fans either 1. Were Lebron fans followed him to LA or 2. Stuck with lakers since Kobe era.

    He just needs to wait till the end of this year. MDA should be outta here. I hope and pray we don't lose Hartenstein.

    This. Chins Moaray should just force his hand and trade Capela.

    Actually no. Pringles would just play Tucker for 45 minutes a night at the 5.

    All I'm asking is to not get embarrassed tonight. Please show up, team Rockets.

    This is one of those lose-lose games.

    You win, narrative says they didn't have AD and Rockets didn't blow them out? Embarrassing.

    You lose, haha Rockets are a joke, first round exit! Harden is in peak playoff form!

    Rockets are more likely to lose now that Davis is out. It should not be this way, but we can only go off of what we have seen. The Rockets don’t take these kinds of games seriously.

    This is only acceptable if it's because Hartenstein isn't getting minutes. Otherwise you should join the Lakers forum.
