    Harden got a injuried fallopian tube from doing Texas three step!

    Harden will drop 30 plus in his sleep and it doesn’t matter who it’s against.

    classic Pop move and I LOVE IT.

    Harden needs the rest and we don't need to be showing our hand to the Warriors any more so they can gameplan against us.

    Should rest CP3 too, due to "general soreness."

    Middle finger to the refs, the NBA, ABC. And would give the media one less thing to talk about, Monday morning.

    Glad he didn’t force it and Rockets prioritised his health over rather meaningless regular season wins and these statistical feats. Well done...also out of all the games this is one Harden might sit out? Would be a fishy move, still pissed about the refs and figure you won’t get calls so throw in the towel? Wouldn’t surprise me..

    If he attemps 20 threes and freezes out rest of the team - for sure

    Everyone says this game doesn't matter. The Rockets are 1 game from the 8 seed.

    Harden needs to be game planning Durant and cousins so they don't get swept!

    Harden can't go out like this. Neither can cp3.

    Yes but we are also 1 major James Harden injury away form a draftless 12 seed for 2 years. Fortunately I don't think this injury is that serious, but playing on an injury makes other injuries more likely.

    The likelihood of winning this game with Harden is low enough that it's worth letting the rest of the roster figure out WTF they can do if Harden is not carrying them and spoon feeding them, as well as Harden observing what the rest of the guys can do which he didn't realize. Might actually help us pick up a couple of otherwise lost games the rest of the way.

    And only 3 games in front on the Kings for the 9th seed. Every game matters now. We ain’t out of the woods yet. We aren’t good enough to just be throwing away games.

    Let the rockets rest. Let all these 10 day contracts play, I'll be laughing by ass off knowing they paid a boatload of money.

    I hope he plays and I hope they win. Rockets gave up too many easy games to be "sticking it to the league".
