    Remember, Cp3 coming back soon. That will also help Faried here... can't wait.

    Harden seems have a nice connection with him.

    Agreed. he hustles, sets screens, rolls, has good hands and can catch the lob. Did we really trade Montrez in the CP3 deal?

    Someone during the game mentioned Dennis Rodman while describing Faried. I’m not going to put him anywhere near that category, BUT his energy is definitely Rodmanesque!!! Great pickup by Morley!!
    Great win!!:)

    Go Rockets!!!

    Another example of Harden's greatness. Basically the fountain of youth, rejuvenating players into being their better self.

    His defense has been great. He’s switching well on the perimeter and contesting every shot. Just beautiful.

    And shout out to Harden’s defense as well. He’s putting forth great effort.

    Guys please don't get overhyped like you did with Rivers and then later start hating on the player your overhyped. Faried had a tremendous game. This is obviously not his average, the weaknesses he had in the past still exist, he doesn't have to put up 20/15 to be a really good backup for us.

    Let's enjoy this game from him. It was awesome, and I hope he has similar games in the future.

    rivers didnt do almost anything in the beginning that was outside his last couple of years averages... the hype was justified that is it practically wasnt an (over)hype
