    Hope he gets better soon. We definitely need him tomorrow night against the Warriors.

    I doubt many players make it through an entire season without bumps and bruises...

    But damn I would hate to see Harden out of the lineup.

    Only two games until all star break. I'd rest Harden and accept the two losses rather than risk anything.

    In the meantime we can be amused by the Lin Show.

    He is so fast, he already sat out tomorrow's practice...

    In all seriousness, let him heal - no need to get him seriously injured...

    If Harden can play and it will help the Rockets win without any serious problems to the knee he should

    the Rockets are not a lock for the playoffs they are fighting with Portland and Utah and the Lakers are creeping up too.


    Its a knee bruise its probably just sore no need to over work it by having him go through practice I am pretty sure he will play tomorrow and Wednesday

    Might as well sit out. The Warriors have been blown out three games straight and are looking to murder us. They're probably 10 point favorites at this point.

    How's that the logic? Maybe the three straight blowouts mean that they're playing poorly? Since we're one of the teams that blew them out shouldn't we be favored?

    He should play. Unless there is more than a bruise and playing would risk a break.

    I agree. No need to risk further injury.

    Let's sit our starters and have the bench start chucking 3s as soon as the game starts. Mark Jackson's going to throw a fit. :grin:

    Hopefully there's nothing too serious with Harden's knee and he knows better to get some rest instead of playing through the soreness. He's our future and we're not contenders this year anyways.

    Is this a Chris Paul-type of "bruised knee"? The kind that keeps a player out for 10~ games?
