    When Harden hurt his knee Morey and the rest of the Rockets brass stayed in their seats according to a tweet. So, if they weren't worried enough to go back to the locker room it can't be that bad. hopefully.

    There was a tweet that they did, in fact, go back to the locker room.....

    I will remain concerned until we hear otherwise.

    the tweet immediately after mentioned that Morey and Rosas actually DID go the locker room.

    He has bumped knees in the past and that one was no different than any of the others. In fact, he seemed to be in the least amount of pain of all the ones I've seen. The one in Detroit last season and the one against Memphis two years ago were worse.

    Crossing my fingers here, but Harden is an all-around big guy with big bones. He can absorb hits much better than someone like RG3, for example, who has chicken legs.

    Looked liked relatively minor contact in the video.

    No more preseason for Harden. Strap him up to his locker if you need to. Especially with the sore ankle and what not, this is the perfect time to rest up. First game up against the Nuggets any ways and he can knock off any rust in that game.

    If it is indeed just a bruise I mean.

    No calls to fire McHale yet?

    Morey was really off in that interview..mumbling a lot and quick answers. Hopefully he was just scared ****less that it could've been worse.

    I'm always cautious when it comes to injuries. I believe it's going to be OK but I've been burned many times by, "He looks OK so he's fine."

    If it was MAJOR though, I think they would know by now.

    Clutch do you think the fact that harden looked ok and was walking on his own signing autographs shows that it's nothing serious?

    Normal for coach to have no info?

    Corey Brewer: "You kind of know if it’s serious. I think he just bumped it a bit. Preseason lasts a long time. He has time to heal."
