    I get it, but it happens enough where its become noticeable and just really a bad look for him and the guys on the floor. When your man is literally 5-6 feet off of you and you're standing around 40 ft from the hoop while everyone else is participating in the offense, you come off disinterested and arrogant. And although I would normally be more sympathetic to the tired argument, this has really been a new thing that started last season and has gotten much worse this year. Harden's really sensitive to public criticism and I think when more people point it out and make fun of/criticize it, he'll adjust.

    MDA is a stubborn old goat but he's finally realized what many of us have been saying for weeks. Hartenstein is worthy of development and more minutes. Now if he would just start cutting House's minutes. I do not see House as the forward we need getting 31 minutes. Nuts!

    Great win!! Happy New Year!!!

    Yeah that was sweet and we out rebounded the Nugs which was a big reason we were able to lay a beating on them ! Mike had better utilize Harty more going forward. I don't expect him to give him half of Clints minutes but if we can keep PJs mins down and use hart a little there it would be awesome and the less wear and tear on Clint the better also ! Was really enthused by what I saw tonight !

    Let me ask you this. Is there a difference between that and when other guys stand in the corner and wait for the ball. Actually don't mind James in the right corner. They did this against the nets for a play if I remember correctly.

    these are some of the highlights from nuggets fans forum, dont go there I sacrificed for the culture cause salt concentration is mile high there except perhaps @Williamson should go and explain some things to them cause they made fun of our hero

    Hartenstein torching us
    Just as I anticipated

    Posted by NugglifeAddict on Dec 31, 2019 | 5:46 PM

    And they are nailing every 3
    And Westbrook every contested junk shot he’s throwing up

    Posted by El Huachi on Dec 31, 2019 | 5:53 PM


    harden gets the call and b****es like crazy to the ref
    God I hate him.

    Posted by Rainbow skyline on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:02 PM

    defensive scheme
    it works last time but Harden figured it out

    Posted by Pinoynugget on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:06 PM

    I guess Malone thought he could roll out the same exact game plan this game as if Houston wasn't going to expect it.

    They should be renamed
    Houston Complainers

    Posted by El Huachi on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:26 PM

    Houston really getting that superstar big market homecourt whistle

    Hartenstein is doing his best to look like Giant Bieber

    He looks like if Collins just did a stint in rehab

    Posted by Brodawg G. Budmane on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:43 PM

    Refs are Houstonian

    Posted by El Huachi on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:52 PM

    We play them 3 times in about a month

    I don’t think I will be to handle all those Harden’s shenanigans

    Posted by karup on Dec 31, 2019 | 6:59 PM

    I think what's most frustrating is Houston looks like a much better team. Look at the quality of their shots vs ours. It's night and day.

    Posted by J Moore on Dec 31, 2019 | 7:02 PM
    If we were getting the same free throws this game is tied

    Posted by Brodawg G. Budmane on Dec 31, 2019 | 7:03 PM

    Hartenstein plays like
    A giant Beaver.

    But Brodawg’s comment literally made me snort my cold-brew nearly out my nose.

    Zach Collins after rehab!

    You win the internet tonight, BB

    Posted by Lord Byron's Luggage on Dec 31, 2019 | 7:04 PM

    Murray has been thoroughly outplayed by Westbrook tonight

    Posted by SoooPitted on Dec 31, 2019 | 7:06 PM

    I don’t see that from this game at all
    I see us missing Gary and Houston running really hot. There’s not that big of a difference

    Yup. It seems every time House gets the ball is either a turnover or a bad shot. Especially last couple of games he keeps faking his threes and driving in and does nothing with the ball but make terrible mistakes. Also don’t start with his silly fouls. Like fouling late on a three point attempt or a dunk.
    I don’t know what’s wrong with him but he isn’t helping much. Perhaps he is been cautious with all the injuries he has had this season or he is still hurt.
