    You know your team sucks when you're booing because the opposing team's best player won't try to score. lol

    Mike in midseason form. ;)

    36 minutes for Ariza; 38 for Harden.

    We talkin' about preseason! No, no, no, not the regular season. Not the regular season. We talkin' about preseason!

    Jim missed the triple double by 1rb lol. Toyed with the Knicks and still played good (shot best so far this preseason).

    Harden im telling you man is sending a message to the knicks for screwing us out of the melo deal. Why else would he be playing this many minutes in a meaningless preseason game

    Harden baked Baker

    Joe would be the best player on the Knicks lol

    I kinda like Dotson though

    I reckon mda plays the starts similar minutes in game 4 of preseason as the final "warm up" game before completely resting the starters for game 5

    MDA is playing a dangerous game. Some summer league scrub on the Knicks could have tried to injure Harden for running the score up in preseason.

    If this team doesn't bag atleast 17 made threes on 39-40% shooting I'll be disappointed.

    They are too good at shooting the three and they are getting even better looks with cp3 and harden always on the court.

    This team is going to be stupid scary on offense it's going to come down to holding teams to 105 or under.

    Lol Paul's look after Harden's
    I mean, that's one of the reasons I like starters in late in pre-season.... People pay to see NBA teams playing basketball.. If they wanted to watch rookies they would go watch D-League games.....With that said, rookies in preseason aren't necessarily getting real NBA action anyways and mostly face other rookies. Practice and D-league is where the coaches get to see who has talent and potential not no preseason game.. Love that The Rockets want to win, regardless of who it is or when it is... These are professional basketball players and some of the finest athletes in the world, no need for that weak resting crap...

    Troy made the team and MDA know his style well.

    They want to see if Chris is worthy. He sure ain't.

    Yeah, he's not bad in the end, but you know the Knicks ****ed up when the best contract they got in the summer is Baker at 4/5M per season lol
