    Harden will get hate because he took 40 shots today even tho Kobe and AI would get nothing but love when they’d drop 50 on 40 shots

    I agree....he is quick enough to switch on the perimeter and fight around screens...has an uncanny quickness about him and is always hustling, playing help defense, all the little things...fighting for every rebound....I want to see how he does against the clippers and lakers first, but I agree he can at least play some bench minutes when necessary....needs to hit that corner 3 though. I don't see the pick and roll being a good option.

    I haven’t taken math since high school, so forgive me if I missed something, but isn’t that 10%, not 1%?

    It seriously feels like this is what Harden does.

    he wants to be cute and play on the perimeter like everyone one else when he should be banging down low...he's not great on the defensive end..not for his size.

    We have been playing great defense which I like seeing more than offense.

    This was a schedule loss.

    Easy.

    b2b, houston to minny, missing 3 starters literally...if the Rockets lose this game no one bats an eye...but they didn't. This was a pretty big win.

    loved seeing Hartenstein getting minutes was great experience going up against Towns he brought maximum effort & energy setting screens going after every rebound

    Harden is just unbelievable

    BMac plays really well off ball

    Clemons the flamethrower!

    Rivers continues to become one of my fav rockets ever

    Hopefully MDA will start seeing the benefits of having a true big in the game and stop over playing PJ so much. The rebounds and presence that Tyson to Hartenstien can provide with the 2nd unit would make a giant impact. Especially if Russ can develop chemistry with them on the PnR.
