    Usain Bolt must have been having a bad day, because that was not a very quick dash. LOL

    You do know Harden was joking, right?

    As I stated in the highlights thread we played the same team both home and away with only a day's rest in between, and won both games which were pretty different in they way the shots were falling. This bodes well for our playoff run.

    Nugs are desperate for a win and scrapping for survival, and we just didn't let up.

    ESPEN must not think too much of the play because It wasn't one of the top 10 plays.

    IMHO ESPN doesn't give credit to Houston because one of their main dudes (forgot his name, he makes the ESPN Power Rankings) is from Dallas or whatever, Rockets shouldn't really bother with what ESPN thinks the world doesn't revolve around them.

    I think the Rockets are really lucky to have Harden on the team, he really is a generational talent and IMHO will go down in history as a very unique player just like Lebron. Him getting coached by MDA and playing in Morey's philosophy in my mind is like TD getting coached by Pops, you just got a match made in heaven.

    It was a nice game in terms of battling, but damn that was horrible defense against a very impressive young team with a monster in Jokic. That is a special talent right there! Denver plays our game, but better since they can go inside-out with Jokic and do not have to go iso. Harden almost blew the game, but glad he showed he has some clutch still in him. I hate the way we look for the whistle and glad the referees didn't fall for it. Also we need to toughen up on D, which we did a couple of stretches and that's the frustrating part. We can be good!!

    Well clearly they don't do it better than we do right?

    Denver has a nice team with some good players but the big difference is that the Rocket's have James Harden.
