    So, we barely won against Philly and Knicks using same Harden hero-ball from last season.

    How exactly does someone expect we can win against Spurs or GSW in playoffs with this tactic? Why isn't JB integrating Lawson into offense and let Harden play off the ball more, saving his energy for defense?

    Does Harden dictate this team's strategy? Is he becoming LeBron 2 as far as coaches are concerned?

    I don't think anyone in the front office expects it at this point, Les made it sound like he will act after the season.

    So how many hero ball possessions did Harden have in this game? How many did he actually convert?
    The game was won DESPITE Harden, Thornton bailed us out again.

    Barely won't against Philly at home, and won in OT against the Knicks without Carmelo Anthony.

    You people need to chill complaining about Harden hero ball. We won and will win with Harden having the ball in his hand. Don't like having superstars on your team then go and follow some middling east coast team to watch your team ball.

    Exactly ppl act like harden is the only superstar that plays this way..... How's Atlanta doing with no stars this year? Oh that's right 10-8 in the garbage east. James harden is the reason we won any games this season before last night.

    And some are acting like he didn't score some crucial baskets down the stretch driving to the hoop.

    Rockets Win

    I was happy about this win because of the effort of several players:

    MThorton, PBeverly, Capela.

    James Harden of course is an amazing player on offense but he needs to focus on his basketball IQ. If your outside is not going in, do not hog the ball by playing ISO ball. Bill Worrell is fed up and JB needs to be also.

    It was wonderful to see Brewer finally get reduced minutes.

    Am so excited for DMO to come back and have a frontline of Howard, DMO, and Capela.

    So you are saying you are true Rockets fan only if you agree with whatever crap front office puts on court? I shouldn't criticize the way we are playing because...we are winning so much? Right, against Philly by two points and against Carmelo-less Knicks in overtime.

    Let's face it, Harden hero-ball may work in regular season, but it's not the way to go against juggernauts like Spurs or Warriors. So if nothing changes this season, we will most likely finally be able to succumb to Clippers, even when they act they actually don't want to win.
