    He was laughing about how Harden only had 1 assist. Well of course he did because no none else could throw it in the fcking ocean!

    Rockets aren't winning without Clint's rebounding. Maybe he played pedestrian defense, but the Rebounding is HUGE for the Rockets. Clint can do anything he wants, JUST REBOUND!!

    If you haven't watched the game at all, watch Harden in the last 4 minutes of the 4th quarter. Omg, like somebody posted earlier, G*d plays bb!!!

    Almost better than sex. I'm serious. That was some climatic BB play if I ever saw one, and i've been watching for over 35 years!

    His mastery of the game is just at another level

    Popovich has admitted to watching tons of tape on harden and just having no answer .

    Harden is just a mastermind

    He's gonna keep getting better under the Tutledge of the dark master aka Chris Paul

    They will make for a *very* tough playoff matchup if we're up against them. No easy outs to be honest, and we will need a solid performance from more than just James.

    I like House and think he's a very good athletic player who can play the three or four and gives us good rebounding. But we have never seen him in the playoffs and there's reason to think he'll struggle (Ariza and Luc struggled last year too, so it would be a wash). I really hope D'antoni tightens up his bench and lineup here soon and stops giving a damn about offending people. Shump experiment is over, Kenneth has got to be firmly entrenched in the lineup, and Rivers has to see the floor over Green and especially late in close games as he isnt scared of big moments. I think come playoffs you'll have to go:
    Starters:
    CP3
    JH
    PJ
    Faried
    Clint

    Bench:
    Gordon
    House
    Rivers
    Green
    Nene (rarely used situationally)

    I think that's gotta be it. I dont think MDA will do it and he'll probably end up starting House over Faried, but the lineup has to start getting tightened up now.

    Wow, so glad I got to see this game in Costa Rica. They didn't show the Cougars game, but 1 out of 2 is better than nothing.

    Those last 4 and a half minutes were awesome!!! James went on a scoring frenzy and dug us out of a hole taking full control. He won that game for us!!! He was awesome these last 2 games!!!!! I think the broken wrist slump is over people!!! That 3 PT shot is back and better than ever. 61 points, 3 steals and 9/14 from behind the arc is HUGE!!!! Loving every minute of it. Go Rockets!!!

    Hmmm. Never really thought about it that way but that could be a great point. The trade off is tough. Harden will play amazing and carry the whole offence but he’ll need alotta help on D. PJ will step up on D but won’t help Harden on offence.
