To Rockets vs Nets O/U 232.5 Rockets - 11.5 It should be a fun game with both teams shooting a lot of 3's. Hopefully a few of our players will get hot tonight. Go Rockets!
Nets will keep double-teaming Harden and Rockets lose to trash teams again. Harden has another 20+ pts game.
So far the best way to limit Harden. He just pass the ball and stand there watching when they double team him.
I would be surprised if the team isn't on point in this one after a few days having to hear about the Christmas debacle.
Harden will never score 80 this season because he gets doubled way too much now. No team in the league wants to be making history like that. The clowning of that team in this social media era would be much much worse than Kobe scored 81 on the Raptors.
I mean, if you just laid a TURD on Christmas Day national TV.....you can't have a TRAP game as the next game. Your pants are pulled down. Nothing short of MAXIMUM effort to win will be accepted if you have any pride after the Christmas game. It is pretty simple.
I'm still hot about last game. Rockets could be alone at #2 right now had they won on Xmas. Still plenty season but that was a wasted opportunity and embarrassing on national TV. The two days rest gives the 40-minute crew some much needed rest. They need more of that during games. Maybe MDA will notice. Maybe he will make any adjustment that's worthwhile.
