    Hardens said 40 is a lot and hopes to rest more. Said this beginning of the season when he was banging Khloe and being fat.

    Harden is tired. Is JB even watching the game?

    Kind of hard to believe Morey didn't do anything 'meaningful' to move this team in the right direction at the deadline.

    Monica.

    You and I get. The others, not so much. They need to accept it and move on with their lives (at least until tip off next season). Only then will they find happiness.

    Slim chance of getting a high enough shot in the lottery to land the #1 pick. I guess crazier things have happened though. Kinda feel like they would draw until a Laker ball came out...

    Without Dmo Rockets 7th seed at best last season. Held it down while D12 and Tjones were out with their injuries.

    Harden doesn't need rest. He needs someone to challenge him. He needs to feel a push, like he doesn't HAVE something. He needs a mentor, so he can in turn become a pusher and a leader, instead of chasing shoe deals, strip clubs and reality TV stars.

    I'm not saying he can't have those things, it just seems that this year he hasn't thirsted for anything outside of those things.

    He scores. Whooptiedoo. He gets rest half the game on defense, and on offense, when he doesn't have the ball, he camps the perimeter instead of moving without the ball.

    There are times I'd be fine if he got nothing but rest, because we aren't where we are without him, but in a way we are.

    Did you forget the big man? I mean I see how it is easy since he is never used by us and is the fall guy on defense for everyone's man

    He did. Trade D Mo for a pick.

    Morey doesn't panic and trade for saving a broken teams season. He knows his job is trades. Picks and signings.

    He knows he'll turn it over if he doesn't shoot it immediately

    Its so hard to watch a team that struggles to get stops at the level that we do, you find yourself that the ball doesn't find the net and even when it doesn't our defensive rebounding has always been lacking
