    you should be. i hate this logic. it doesnt matter what hes done in previous teams. hes played well ever since hes got here and has a higher ceiling then all these 1 trick role players the rockets have. that's what you use to evaluate who is contributing to this team in real time

    Why do we rest WB on the easy game? All that happens is we lose both

    i can almost tolerate the missed threes. but the fact that we would prefer he jack up a contested corner three blind-folded than cut to the basket because he will either get blocked or fling up some garbage at the rim with no chance of going in is a much bigger problem.

    Smart move; he can't hit the side of a red barn with a brickbat.

    Harden is a bad player right now no doubt and he is a worse leader. His nonchalant careless attitude is like a cancer that's killing this team right now. Westbrook at least looks like he gives a ****. MDA also looks like a deer in headlights right now. MDA should have sat Harden but allowed him to play the whole 4th Q.

    Losing streak to 3. One positive; i saw the offense trying some new wrinkles (with cuts and such).

    Maybe the Rockets win tonight with Harden resting more and Rivers dominating the ball? Harden was a walking cancer this game...

    This team is an embarrassment ... Morey on tv talking up that streak after losing to NY, Harden coming up infinitely smaller than ever after his response to Giannis, getting curb stomped at home by LAC and this hot garbage today ... sure it’s all because Russ didn’t play and we likely win with him tonight but the bigger issue is Harden just aint that guy !

    gonna be super lucky stay in the 4/5 slot forget climbing any higher, may even see the 6/7 slot in all likelihood

    Tucker, House and McLemore got the start and combined for 8 points in 77 minutes

    Whenever the Rockets perform poorly the only thing you can think about is me. Is that why you are incapable of any introspection on why Harden has severe flaws?
