    Always liked the Joker, like him even more now :D and aside for that, i always thought he's kinda the Harden of the big men, i bet he's one of the guys who voted for James three years ago instead of the little b**** Curry.

    I'll say it again. It's James NOT the coach.
    James WANTS to be in. He has set an NBA record of most games in NBA history
    with 35+ points and 5+ rebounds. NO ONE else in NBA history has had such a run.
    Now, if YOU were coach, and you had a player on a record setting streak, would YOU
    sit him in a nothing game and break his streak or would you let him continue to
    add to his legacy and make it more difficult for future wannabes?

    Foreal!!!!

    I just saw Espn promo for the Game it was “freaks come out at night” don’t get me wrong it was catchy and I liked it but you gotta throw some harden in there. There was literally no mention of the rockets all bucks and Giannis.

    Whatever we’ll prob end up with a double digit win behind another 40 point triple double.

    You know harden “the serial killer” loves those national TV games, especially against the media darlings like Lebron curry and Giannis.

    He consistently outplays all of them every time they match up.

    It’s all good the bearded boogey man will take out the freak once again.

    You know, I think this win puts the "double Harden" theory to rest. Yes, it is one way that you might temporarily throw him out of his rhythm, but as soon as he adjusts, your team is f*cked. It wasn't like the Rockets were red-hot to start the game; the constant doubling (and Harden's good decisions) gave shooters enough space and time to get set and shoot comfortably, and once that happens the whole Rockets offense starts getting pretty damn scary.

    Also I'm really loving how Clint is playing right now, that last strip and fastbreak dunk was something I don't think I've seen a big man do in a long time. Yes, a few bigs can dribble up the court but how many can get the steal one-on-one against a guard and then finish the other way? Maybe Thon Maker can, but I can't think of anybody else :p

    The Rockets are getting pretty close to the top of the west, even without Cp3 and EGo. That's pretty f*cking awesome
