    He may have spoken longer in pregame, but they played this clip at halftime.

    Inexcusable for the Rox to go into this season so thin and unproven behind Howard.

    Just looking at the big picture. We still have our best player playing for us and Harden covers a lot of deficiencies.

    Take all the time to get healthy, and find Harden as much rest as possible between the 38+minute games.

    If we can remain somewhat competitive until the trade deadline, make our playoffs roster, and get healthy around the same time, that would be the perfect mix for a deep run.

    Let's do it Rockets & Murray!

    They're calling it a knee sprain on the box scores and such

    Is it tendinitis? What?

    I mean sometimes it doesn't harm it to play with a little pain.....

    We arent going to win without the big man against teams in the West, but his injury has allowed for DMo to grow up playing the five and 4

    It seems like the Rockets don't even know. By the time Memphis comes to town on Wednesday, he'll have been out over two weeks. Do they even have a rough estimate for when he'll be back?

    Rockets have four days until their next game, right? And they need every day of it.

    Yep. 3 days off til Memphis rolls in here. I hope Dwight can go on Wednesday, cuz there's no way in hell they win that game without him. Shoot, even with him, they'd probably be underdogs.
