    Harden hasn’t had a big man to play with like Wood, who’s really showing us something. What a load! Also like the energy from the young guys. Gordon looking more like himself. Hell, we could be pretty damn good if Harden will buy in (and get into game shape).

    I know I'm overreacting to a preseason game but I'm putting $1000 on Rockets season over under 35.5.

    Wood looks too good. This is a +500 team with or without Harden.

    Harden and Wood should average 30 each and break the Harden-Russ record for most prolific scoring duo.

    :D

    The last play with and 1 showed teams can’t double harden when Woods rolling besides him . That means harden can attack the basket easily with a single coverage and no one in the league can stop him one on one

    well even without harden we would be adding simmons (an all-star) or herro and robinson. i have no doubt we could be .500

    Wood MVP of first half. Going back-to-back second half?

    Well, we actually already had him, so ... :D
    But then so did a lot of other teams.

    We also probably shouldn't get excited after just one game. And a pre-season one at that. I also want to see what he can do with a John Wall, too.

    Tate cant even beat out Bruno tonight.

    Bruno has played double his minutes.

    Enough with the PJ hate and lies.

    Yall getting on Tucker but it's a preseason game with nothing on the line but good health. He's a hustle player in a game that isn't needing hustle and he has his spot confirmed.

    In my amateur opinion, Christian Wood makes us very good rather than pretty good.
