    Wow, this is a joke. They played around 36 minutes last night, big deal. It's not like they had to exert all of this effort to take care of the Orlando Magic. If they sit out this game for "rest" then that's pathetic.

    I don't care if Lebron plays or not. Let's get a W.

    Well, I'm actually going to the game and have been excited to watch Lebron play for awhile now... So I do care if he plays.

    I'll be pissed if he doesn't.

    If he wants to rest let him rest home games.

    I think the owners know they have their fans' money in both tickets and merchandise, so give the OK to coaches to rest their investments, so they will last longer and risk injury less. You are right, 36 minutes shouldn't be that big of a deal for an athlete. They get all those breaks in the game for timeouts and commercial breaks. Soccer players run around for 45 minutes without a break, then another 45 minutes straight.

    LeBum or not, Rockets should come out not complacent and get the W

    Btw Sunday night's are the worst in my calendar (weekend over and Monday work) but tonight should make it smoother

    We were a 10 point fave against Miami and Indy at home, and straight up lost

    In just the last hour, Harden has moved 483,000 miles around the center of the galaxy. That's your MVP right there.

    I think Harden "rested" one time in 5 years, the game after he kicked Lebron nuts lol
