    Solid win—slump busted, hopefully! Good to see the guys looking happy-ish!

    Eric Gordon had fun today, that’s for sure. I did too.

    Kind of interesting we win a game that Harden doesn’t jack up (and miss) 15-20 stupid 3 pointers, weird how that works ...’

    1st of all in a blowout win there's very little to complain about & that's what most out the long game threads are.... complaining. I didn't get on early because League Pass had the game starting at 8:30. Imagine my surprise when I tuned in at 8:35 & we're in the 3rd quarter. Oh well nice win!!

    good solid win. Having Gordon and Austin help off the bench makes things a whole lot easier on Harden and Westbrook


    PJ and Harden just 31 minutes each tonight, should keep the crazy people who go on about minutes happy

    A very important victory! What a night of Westbrook, 28 points, 16 boards, 8 assists, 4 steals and ... 0 three-point shots! We need more nights like this!

    Good game even if it wasn’t closed but if it was closed or we wouldn’t have won this is the kind of game that we have to play. With effort, moving the ball more and with everyone engaged.

    It was great seeing everyone played like tonight. Not so inclined on jacking 3s. Ball movement and good defense. Also it was great seeing the team not letting Denver get any momentum and keeping the lead.

    i like that 28 points with zero three pointers. i hope he keeps attacking baskets and take mid range shots.
    we have a better chance winning games without Russ jacking up 3s.

    Westbrook hasn’t been taking many threes in the last month or so. Also, he’s been the Rockets’ best player in January.

    Exactly my friend. If Westbrook focuses his game on passing the ball, defending and attacking basket... this team has a better chance of winning. Harden's attitude on the court is also very important.

    You think a hot shooting night against a heavily injured Nuggets team is going to bring people back on the bandwagon??

    At this point going forward Harden ISO should be plan B. I love how he got points in the flow of the offense tonight. We need to set more screens for EG to get him open as well.
