    Better hope we get a huge lead early in the fourth .

    James on pace for 38 minutes tonight .

    I know he's been incredible , but sometimes we just ride him too hard .

    Can green get some minutes ??

    MDA really does love him some JJ

    rockets arent even "riding" him. it might look like that in a box score but watching the game says otherwise. the nuggets are gifting him with points with their low bball iq defensively.

    he loves it.....

    The most impressive thing is, Harden is averaging his least amount of minutes per game since he became a Rocket

    With his numbers? He'll be lucky to even be mentioned against other great SGs like Beal and KCP.

    We are riding him with ~20 first half minutes . That's what I mean . Harden doesn't have to work to drop 27 in a half ...

    But we are playing him too many minutes

    he played the whole first quarter bc he was hot and getting pts as gifts. do you bench someone geting pts at will. we know harden usually sits in the 1st quarter and cp3 comes in for him at about 2-3 minutes left in the 1st. that just goes with coaching and leaving someone who scored what 17 pts in the first in the game

    again with these horrible minutes complaints

    Needs to play smarter second half, shooting lights out but only lead by 14.

    Sure . He's averaging 35.7 and the previous low was 36.4.

    The 36.4 was last year when he collapsed in the playoffs due to fatigue ( or whatever )

    It's not that great a reduction .

    Given how much of a contender we actually are . I'd like to see us be a bit more careful with our best player.

    How has Wright fit in? Saw he had 7 minutes. Is he backing up Capela then? Couldn't watch the first half.
