    Why does he think he has anything to do with a family of winning.

    I actually think load management throws his rhythm off. NBA games are like practices during the season.

    I recall Kawhi wasn't his usual self last year around November time too with them Raps.....he is really another player in the Playoffs than the regular season.

    In RS he only gives you 20-30 ppg.......so he is coasting or being load managed basically.

    He does not sweat it.

    I think he actually needs it to be honest. Did you see him rubbing his knee on the bench during a timeout? He was limping noticeably at times. Just not sure he can handle an 82 game season.

    Yeah but that's why Dumbtoni is the wrong coach for him cuz he isn't gonna sit himself out. We need somebody who has an eye on the bigger picture and won't run him to the ground in the regular season.

    Harden seems to be much better at pacing himself throughout the game. Hopefully it pays off in the playoffs.

    If he is cleared to play, he should play. It's more about the team than him.

    Now that I have been watching baseball, I get this disrespectful burn. I'm just proud of myself that I get it though.

    I get it, I do, but his history shows he cannot do it. I don’t care one way or another to be honest. I just think it’s best for his career.

    Harden was so hot tonight that he heated up the Toyota Center himself, even though it was 45 degrees outside.

    If he puts his mind to it, I don't see why he is not better than KD. The dude can shoot over people like KD and defend like a champ.

    Rivers is so good guarding quick guards.

    The real Rivers I’m talking about.

    Maybe but I think KD has the regular season stats going for him.........but I wasn't putting KD in the conversation.

    KD could be a decent defender but he is all Offense. Different kind of breed.
