    I think Russell WB could sing more than one song about it.

    Chandler Parsons is back on the team? "The hottest dude" according to himself.

    He's been stroking it so well too, to open the space for Harden to drive. Not quite a career high, but really impressive nonetheless (39.9% from deep on a really good volume).

    ClutchFans for you - exaggerating everything. I still remember some people saying (or even actually believing) that DMo has been injured for the last few years, when in fact he only missed 56 regular season games (and 17 playoff games) in 2014-15 & 2015-16 seasons combined, which isn't nearly as horrible as some make it out to be.

    For all we know, Gordon's injuries might be a thing of the past.

    Personally, I would rather lose him on this stretch than right before the playoffs. Injuries are part of a team's success/failure and that is something that nobody can control. Were probably better off not worrying about things we have little control over.

    Speaking of this b****, where's he been the last few weeks now that the Rockets are playing well?? All that talk about Harden padding his stats, and locker room discourse has been quiet lately. Does the Dallas nutrider not have anything to say?

    We should ban posting Calvin Watkins tweets in the GARM, even if it's good news about the Rockets. Not hating on you the poster here, but I can't stand Calvin Fu*kins.

    The quote may be outdated, but Harden is playing 37.1 minutes vs 38.1 minutes last season, and Nene is starting to lose his minutes on top of his b2b rest. We have better depth this year.

    Lopez, you are correct in saying he is the Nets best trade chip. The other reason stated for his rest in b2bs is that their performance team assessed that he plays better with the rest or without playing in b2bs.

    I remember the game against Denver when Calvin Watkins tweeted (paraphrasing): Rockets had a great 1st quarter, but the Warriors game the previous night is bound to start catching up with the team.

    Just an ass.

    They shouldn't give Gordon big minutes tonight. Take a big lead and lead some guys finally rest.

    oh ya... we still hate you Calvin Watkins. Once this BJ / Dmo thing settles, RedNation will ruin your twitter mentions again.

    Indeed we haven't seen a drastic reduction in hardens minutes yet, but its no secret "we want" to reduce his minutes. I'd like to see more rest when up 20 points for all starters.

    Also, your correct, Nene is flat out losing his minutes. At this point in his career he is better served as a "Jason terry" role. 3rd or 4th big off the bench as insurance and a solid veteran and locker room presence.
