    When will Harden grow up? Howard is only reacting to the way Harden is treating him. I dare say, we need to move on from Harden. He will hold us hostage with his effort level which he turns on and off. He doesn't care about the team, he only shows up when there are big match-ups and media attention. Maturity issue that won't be quickly solved.

    Any word on if Capela is back tonight ? It could get really ugly if Clint and TJ can't go given that Dmo is coming back from injury and it's the second night of a back to back for Dwight . Have we called up Harrell ?

    What'd you expect? We support these prima donnas by buying the teams merchandise, tickets to the games, league pass subscription etc. and this is the kind of effort we get.

    As I've said repeatedly. It's not JUST Harden. You have nothing more than a hatred for him if you think he's the reason behind this teams mess.

    Its really not when you see a guy standing there giving up 3 backdoor cuts in a row. Whats worse is he sees the guy coming and stands there swiping his hand down as if that would vindicate him from the defensive blame. He is a lazy player with no fire and it shows every time he is on the court. Huge Harden fan last season with a bunch of gear, but I'm not sure I can get more of his stuff anymore.

    He's the leader of the team, who do you think they are going to follow? How much more likely are you to play hard when the guy your team has invested their future in doesn't give a crap?

    Grown ass men being paid millions of dollars need to follow someone in order to do their jobs correctly? No thanks. They are just lazy players just like James.

    Harden is that super duper talented guy at the rec who can dominate the game whenever he wants on offense, but doesn't play defense because it's not sexy.

    It's tough to watch, but I'd take 5 Patrick Beverley's before 5 James Hardens if I had to pick a team.

    That's great an all, but you wouldn't win too many games.

    True

    But they would beat Harden's team and that's the point I'm making.

    As they should. The Rockets effort and level of play is unacceptable. Fans should not tolerate players not giving an honest effort. The players get their money from the owner. The owner gets his money from US, the fans. The players owe us more than they have given us.

    I'm still watching the games, I'm rooting for the team to win. But, the one thing I WILL NOT TOLERATE, is poor effort game after game by players that are making millions.

    I will fully support Morey trading any player that refuses to play hard.

    Debating on if I should actually watch this game or not. I'm pretty sure I know what will happen.

    Archer or The typical 2015-2016 Rockets game? Hmmmm
