    Looks like someone lost his bet on the Gators and had to eat Manu's sausage.

    Would like to see Aaron Brooks get some actual meaningful playing time, even though it's unlikely...

    Hoping Harden rest until he feels completely better.

    Schedule isn't that hard for the most part. Orlando, Sacramento, Phoenix, Sacramento, Phoenix should be easy locks. They're probably trying to lose at this point.

    Harden, Parsons game-time decisions

    Red Nation already knew James Harden was recovering from a sore right foot.

    Add Chandler Parsons to the list of the walking wounded.

    Parsons is recovering from a bout of food poisoning suffered Sunday evening. Both Parsons and Harden did not take part in gameday shootaround on Monday leading up to the Rockets' game against the Magic. They are both game-time decisions

    Kevin McHale joked Monday that it wasn't so much food poisoning for his small forward as it was Wolverine poisoning the way Michigan handled Parsons' Florida Gators Sunday in the NCAA tournament.

    Harden has been dealing with a sore right foot since hurting it on February 13 against the Warriors. The injury flared up recently to where it forced the Rockets All-Star to miss Saturday's 98-81 win over the Clippers.

    Harden is fifth in the league in scoring at 26 points a game, while also averaging 4.7 rebounds and 5.8 assists.

    Parsons is second on the Rockets in scoring at 15.1 points a game and also averages 5.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists.

    Harris is playing like a ROY. Not easy to stop his triple threat game. Just don't let any scrubs have a career night against us i.e. Moe Harkless, Andrew Nicholson, Beno Udrih.

    I don't know how anyone can play after watching that Kevin Ware injury. I'm still sick to my stomach.

    I think both will be good to go. Harden just taking a little more time to rest. Parsons is recovering from his hang over.

    All the starters should just sit out this one. We could beat the Magics with our D-League squad..
