    This is why I blame Howard more than Harden. You see Harden did nothing special that he ever does maybe he played defense a little better. Dwight though is totally motivated and it makes us a much better team. Harden has been Harden we need Dwight to be Dwight and then hopefully Last years Harden comes back after the all star break.

    OKC or @LAC

    Clippers played last night, so can't give full credit.

    Since when is JB is a disciplinarian?

    Besides.. Smith>Jones

    The current shift of balance from west to east is quiet interesting actually. Amazing with our record, we are 7th in the West but tied for 11th with NY in the east

    I didn't say he was. It certainly doesn't take a disciplinarian to put a leash on Josh Smith.

    Last year he came to the Rockets because they made promises to him. He was also Dwight's buddy and treated with kid gloves.

    It's different now and ain't never gonna be that way again for Josh Smith.

    The Rockets go as Harden goes. The wins and losses are in large part because of Harden and what he does on the court. This win is no different.

    Harden finally started playing hard in the 1st quarter and the rockets were much MUCH better for it.

    Dwight did exactly what he does every game this time the Rockets and Harden were actually throwing him the ball deep in the paint. When Dwight is happy he plays defense and rebounds.

    who's gonna feed Dwight? James Harden.

    What exactly is different?

    If Brewer is allowed to shoot 3PT, Smith isn't an issue. Rockets also need all the defense they can get.

    Glad that the clips no longer own us like in years past.

    Rockets always get hard for the sexy games.

    I'm convinced after last years playoffs we're in their heads. It's mental now, they don't think they can beat us.
