    Jameer Nelson (calf) and Will Barton (foot) aren't playing tonight for the Nuggets against the Pelicans. There is a good chance they won't play on Wednesday too (or could be limited). Barton has killed the Rockets in the past.

    BTW, OKC has 2 games with the Nuggets text week.

    Troy Williams with that strong final push to overtake everyone and be the MVP.

    Easy win if Harden doesnt play. Killer fast pace and team ball with Lou at the point.

    Then Brown makes the HOF over Rudy T, and Tinman's head explodes.

    This is not a must win. The magic number for the 3rd seed is only 1. The Rockets still have Detroit coming to town Friday and they're in the midst of a late season collapse(they've lost 8 of 10). Then they go to Sactown and face a Kings team that's not exactly trying to win games right now. Then after an admittedly tough B2B at the Clippers, they close at home against the T'Wolves. And it's unlikely the Jazz beat all their remaining opponents.

    Now if we're talking finishing with the 3rd best record in the league, tomorrow isn't a must win, but it sure would help. The magic number for that is currently 4, BTW.

    You are one of those YOF/LOF's who hates harden so get a life. Funny story we have 51 wins this season with the killer of fast pace and team ball in 74 games which is more then Lebron and anyone not named Spurs and Warriors. . But don't let the fact that he leads the league in assists and is playing team ball get in the way of youre crusade of how Harden screwed lin. looool you are a clown. Go back to jenny lin site

    Nuggets desperate, no Harden... we will lose this game.

    If Harden plays, will go down to the wire and we will win.

    Backing into the playoffs is not a good thing.

    For that reason- it is a must win against a scrappy team.

    Harden sees T-Mac in the house and plays INSPIRED basketball and scores 13 in 35!!

    James Harden is getting raped by Westbrook again in MVP race.

    Harden needs to prove he is not mental midget, and this is Clutch City rather Choke City.
