    Well I'm certainly glad we won this one. 0 and 2 would have sucked. Good we're getting Hollywood LeBron performance instead of motivated LeBron performance.

    And now winter is coming... MCW starting point guard.

    Mark Jackson said he thinks he heard Paul telling Lebron that Rondo spit on him. But I don't see it. I think Paul must just not like Rondo.

    I was a little disappointed with how sloppy and lackadaisical Harden had played for three and a half quarters, but give the man credit. He played like an MVP down the stretch.

    Excellent game, 4th quarter showed that the Rockets can indeed still play good defense. LA should have let sleeping dogs lie, but Ingram had to try to be a fake tough guy and get the Rockets mad...

    Great games for Harden and Cp3, though I'm still not a fan of those long touchdown passes.

    Capela ate the Lakers for lunch, and PJ was big, as usual.

    Great rebounding from Melo, and Eg0 could get to the rim at will, so I'm excited to see how dangerous he'll be once his shot comes back.

    And, of course, Gerald Green was perfect.

    **** the Lakers, now I can't wait to see the Rockets choke out the Clippers tomorrow!!!

    Harden sill that guy.

    Him and KD are the two guys that seem to always out play him head to head.

    MVP and still the best offensive weapon in the game.

    Harden stepped it up like a teams best player should when his second best guy was screwed by the refs. Nice to see the embrace in the tunnel

    Forget ESPN, if any of those guys did that to the Rockets clutchfans would be full of hot takes about how Harden isn't the closer any of those guys are.

    We wonder why Harden doesn't get the respect he deserves from national media? Read these threads man, lots of clutchfan on beard violence.

    Hire a makeup artist to make CP's face look like he got hit.

    Lakers are so bad, no way they hit the 44 over on wins. This is going to be like Kobe's last few years in LA.

    I thought since the Pelicans game we would have to score 120 tonight to win. I apologize. We could have gotten by with 116.
