    Dang just saw the highlights. Harden took a pretty big fall. Glad he is okay!

    NBA.com is worse. I think ppl get too carried away with controversies and "they hate us!" but it's pretty true. Regardless of what it anybody else has done, "WB carries to win w/ triple double!" Today all the headlines were once again about WB, but it read "WB doesn't get triple double but still leads to win".

    Are you ****ing ******** me. If I had the time or the notion that the nba would give a crap I would write them something about their $hitty online pubs

    They did; pretty quickly too. 10 minutes after the game, ESPN had highlights. Then, maybe 30 minutes later, ESPN had a graphic about his triple doubles and odds to win MVP.

    it was adequate and I was satisfied.

    ESPN acted like the Lakers game didn't exist though. Despite Harden having a triple double and Rockets winning by 39, they waited 3 hours to show highlights.

    How close was it? It should not be that close to close out the Gold Nuggets.

    Just got done watching the replay on Roots Sports, Harden is unbelievable. So glad I'm able to witness his greatness, hopefully this summer we can lift that trophy up!

    Harden was fantastic, but lack of rim protection nearly evened things up for Denver at the end.

    Nene and Bev defended well. Capela is providing no shot blocking.
    I hope Harden will feed EG more shooting opportunities. He is way overdue for a big game.

    Just got back from the game (well from drinking after the game)

    Despite not getting national attention, it may make fellow rockets fans feel better than this game was the most packed and best atmosphere I have ever seen Pepsi center, at least in the last 5 years, except for maybe Kobe's farewell tour last season (although everyone left at half time of that game). People wanted to see this Rockets team play

    I go to about 15 nuggets games a year and before tonight I have never had to miss tip off due to huge lines trying to get in. It's also by far the most I have had to pay for a ticket at Pepsi Center (again excluding kobes farewell). Definitely a fun time

    How often a team wins is not an opinion, regardless of how you much you personally like or dislike them, and just because you think you can have an opinion that's contrary to fact, does not make your opinion valid.
