    He said the same thing last year and got tired in the playoffs.

    James Harden isn’t going to set himself up for failure. Knowing damn well he can play as an able body professional will not do him any good in his head. Stay the course and win the whole damn thing!

    No player is ever going to say they want to rest (except LeBron but he's LeBron). It's up to D'Antoni to rest him but to expect Harden to be like "yeah I want to take a break here or there" would just be a bad look for him.

    If Harden or CP3 play vs the Hawks on Sunday (a home game and the second night of a back to back) Mike Dan Tony needs to be fired

    He also carried a much bigger load for the team last season.

    He carried the entire load. I understand, but he needs to go ahead and sit his ass down.

    At least Dantoni knows he’s coaching a bunch of men

    Your best chance at getting Harden rest is when CP3 comes back and can play. Perhaps the Friday Suns game.

    You are fooling yourselves if you think Harden AND CP3 will be out without the #1 seed 100% locked up.

    Remember when Westboro Baptist protestes funerals and everyone showed up with angel wings to block them out?

    Clutchfans needs to set up perimeter around Harden’s house to lock his ass in. Take his Bentley keys and put as many big booty strippers in the house so he can’t possibly escape.

    hmm.... MDA and Morey need to let their n***ts hang and not write his name on that paper they have to fill out every night. Especially against sorry teams coming up.

    I dont give a hoot if Harden says he wants to play, its not about harden, its about the ROCKETS.

    The Rockets need Harden rested and at 100% when the time comes to win in the playoffs.

    technically, they weren’t quarters, since a quarter is one fourth

    You'd have cf members on here asking why he isn't practicing free throws

    He said the same thing last year and every year. And we know what happened in the playoff last year. DUDE was dog tired playing all those minutes trying to get the MVP

    REST HIS ASS. Do not take any injury chance. Look at what happened to the Warriors and curry. They are done!

    Rockets got this Championship locked up. Just don't get hurt

    You want him to rest, not kill him with euphoria.
