    Harden was struggling long before the trade. Why do y’all keep saying Clint is the reason he is struggling ?

    I got to the game late is Russ out for a reason again ?

    Gonna needs him because clearly Harden isn't up to the task anymore (and the rest of the garbage around has followed his lead)

    I think we had 7 in our first eleven possessions. Sign of a well-prepared and dedicated team.

    We were down by 20-0 to start. I am not kidding you.

    Russ is out due to b2b restriction because we think Magic is a tougher team than the Hornets.

    I completely agree. My point is D’Antoni needs to stop stubbornly going back to groups that are not playing hard. Doesn’t matter who they are.

    Harden is all talk but no bark. He should regret calling out the mvp of the league out east

    It’s simply rest on the first night of a back to back.

    I just don't want to hear no bullshitz excuses from Harden later on...Oh my hand was hurt, oh my knee...what ever man you were out there playing. If he is hurt just take few games off.
    It's a back to back.

    He is doing it on purpose. Those guys were playing with the defensive energy. I'm telling y'all Carroll has got to play a minimum 25 minutes tonight and Green 32

    Can’t have a guy who refuses to shoot the corner three for spacing. Charlotte running the same defense Knicks used.

    The rockets haven’t ran that pick and roll offense in 2 years. Rockets been all iso since CP3 went down in the beginning of last season. Smh

    Also, moving forward, Carroll and Green need to be two of the first people off the bench every game. They weren’t brought here to be bench warmers.

    20-0? Man wtf is going on with this team, specifically James harden???

    It seems like if Russ doesn’t play then there is zero fire in this team
