    Decent win, glad we got it.

    Harden played with effort on both ends the portion I saw except a few bullish passes.

    Technically he said he has been shooting 40% - which doesnt neccesarily mean on the season, and he is right that Harden has been shooting 40% from 3 (over the last 25ish games)

    Should he shoot less in your opinion because he bas been shooting so well of late?

    Good win. Sadly it could come down to these two wins vs. the Jazz to stay the 7th seed

    How were we able to win without Dwight? Isn't this the first win this season without him?

    Harden played well tonight . Made some boneheaded turnovers , but the effort on defense was there the whole night .

    This was a good win.

    I know it doesn't feel like it because of how the season has gone so far... we aren't satisfied with a win right now because we're treading water trying to string together a streak.

    But it's good to get a win against a good defensive team.

    Perfectly executed.

    ESPN is so awesome. I wonder who James banged and didn't call back to make them so angry at him?

    I also love the updates on how good Steph's farts smell every day. Greatest sports network ever!

    not a bad win if you're a mediocre team. last year's harden-rockets would've destroyed this hobbled jazz team. this year they could only keep it a 2-3 posession game.
    and jones remembered he's in a contract year, not bad.
    at least they kept their lesser role players from going off.

    but harden man, he just cant have the perfect games he had last season.
    if he gets 30-40 pts its with bad shooting or a buncha to's. he had 4 which isnt bad for his role, and shot well but still went 0-7 from three.
    there's always something horrible he'll do if he has a really godo game. sucks

    smart move keepign dwight out. he's avg close to 40mpg since dec 23. only one game under 36min

    The one says trade Howard because we win bigger without him? Idiot.

    Bashing Harden after a win? This is a forum, some like to praise the good, some like to criticize the bad. Harden did some bad stuff in the game. It's OK to criticize.

    The bright spot for these two wins are Harrell - that's one stonewall fact you cannot deny. You can feel the energy everywhere. His motor and hustle is second to no one on this team. Now go get Indiana and Memphis and take that #5 seed from the f****** Mavs.
