    Rockets missed some bunnies. Cost harden at least 3 assists and 2 turnovers

    Lol. Unless this team finds another player that can playmake or score consistently, Harden will be FORCED to put up 30/15 just for us to win every night.

    This win is the difference between 4-5 and 3-6. They scared me for a moment here.

    Yeah, i'm starting to think he wants out, his relationship with Beal may be worst than we think...it'll be interesting to see how that situation is going to develop.

    Harden is a beast that can still get better. That is a scary thought for the rest of the league!

    Pretty sure I am aware of that. He also didn't play a lick of defense and fell into the lazy passes again.

    You can quote the stats all you want but this was not one of his better games, which just proves my point. He's putting up 32/15 despite being lazy and repeating the same stupid mistakes over and over again - imagine what he could do if he snapped out of it?

    Calvin really going all in to raise breast cancer awareness. What a man, what a man. Only he could get away with that suit.

    Starting Brewer is dumb....Gordon needs to start so Rockets can get off to good starts. You want to boost scoring of the bench..bench Ennis and play Bobby Brown!!:eek:

    Gordon played better defense on Wall than Brewer... Coaches seem to get tricked into thinking Brewer is a good on the ball defender because of his lankyness.

    Rockets players attempting to get a defensive rebound = Kentucky
    Kentucky won in today's version though. If they make more than 15 threes, they win. That seems sustainable.

    Yeah, I think he tries for the homerun pass a little too much sometimes, but so far this season he has been excellent running the offense. I like the chemistry with this team, they just need better rebounding.

    I understand your point but his defense was average, off ball was terrible & on ball was great.

    He has had a record breaking start to the season, imo slack is definitely deserved...

    Harden putting up historic numbers. Unreal

    I know part of it is Mike Anthony system but it can't be all. Dude is just straight up baling

    Harden would be much better if we could surround him with real talent. That's always the problem here. We either have superstars and no cast or we have a great supporting cast and no stars. Houston hasn't been able to put it all together in a long time.
