    JB Bickerstaff is a complete and total moron but even he's likely to realize that he needs to start trapping and doubling Harden on every possession and that's likely to slow him down in the 2nd half. We'll need the scrubs to step up their game if the Rockets are to win this one.

    All that usage and only 3 turnovers for Harden is unreal. That has to continue and please no late 4th quarter meltdowns

    Ha, well if we instituted that rule when Harden plays we’d be missing too many players every night, you’d have to move it to half court three on three

    Listen, I'm a Gary Fanboy, but chillout. I do agree Gary is playing well.

    Forreal if I was the Griz I would play strong side zone.

    Do something to get the ball out of Hardens hands.

    Like i said. Our only chance is 4 out all shooter so harden can just go to the lane. Basically 2 years ago rockets team. It wont work against the good teams but it will give u a punchers chance if tucker n green them are on fire. Cause once they see we cant hit 3s. Them lanes for james gonna clog real quit

    This is some epic stuff we're watching.

    Another straight up stupid factoid: Wilt's streak of 65 got broken when he scored 26 in a game against Boston...then starting the next game he did it another 31 times in a row.

    Kobe scored like 50+pts for 4 games straight (65,50,60,50)....Originally, I couldn't see James doing that, but now with Capela hurt....idk......

    Three Clint replacements: 15 minutes, 2 points, 5 rebounds

    Calvin:

    Why should they produce when James can do it all?

    Julia, would you like butter on your popcorn baby?
