    I'm pretty sure that was sarcasm directed at Lin fans. That said, I agree with you on how well they seem to mesh. Overall our starters played very well. Bench as expected, not so much.

    This*100

    I knew he could score. But I didn't expecte this kind of play making skills. Aren't those passes beautiful or what?! To think he's only been here, what, 3, 4 days??? Daaaamn

    And his defense surprised me too.

    Shots may come and go. I don't expect him to score 30+ every game. But tonight showed his all-around game. Well worth the max money.

    I remember Yao's first game. Felt nothing like this.


    This is how I felt after watching Tracy McGrady's 13 in 33. Harden is that damn good.

    Tracy was much better playing against the Mavericks in game 1 of the playoffs.

    The 13 in 33 was a fluke event of him jacking up 3s. Tracy showed his full repertoire against the Mavericks.

    But Harden has a chance now to do what McGrady has failed to do. lead the Rockets somewhere in the playoffs.

    I just mean the excitement level.

    Showcasing complete skillset wise, you are right. It is very comparable to that Mavs game. I would dare say that Harden is an even better facilitator than T-mac and that is a HUGE compliment because I think McGrady was probably the best at it in maybe the last decade.

    Regardless, I am incredibly excited about the possibility of Harden leading us to playoff success in the near future. It's exciting being a Rockets' fan again.

    if harden could be as good or slightly better than what we had with kevin martin then it's a win-win.

    kevin martin was a more consistent and proven player from his proven production with the kings, but only time will tell.

    I wouldn't go that far. T-Mac gets the edge in facilitating due to his height and superior court vision.
