    He has all but admitted he's out of shape. It's so nice to have a combination of defensive guards and wings to run out and harass people again - FVV, Amen, Eason, Brooks, Tate.

    Let's continue the dogpile on Harden. Dude has to be embarrassed at this point, and we know what Harden does when things get tough - thousand yard stare.

    No other way to put this: it's just another regular season game, but it's going to a war! It's going to be a very physical game with some hard fouls. The Clippers are beyond desperate for a win.

    Respect to Westbrook for volunteering to come off the bench. It'll be interesting to see how the Rockets' second unit handles this.

    I remember when he went 1-17 from behind the arc one night. It was hard to stomach, but that was when he was the ball hog no matter how bad he was shooting. The worst part was that we could have won easily if not for his selfishness. I'm so glad we spread the ball now, and don't play hero ball. He had a lot like that, whether 2-15, 2-16, 2-18. Meanwhile guys like House were making more 3's with 5 or 6 shots. But....James had to score the most points.

    This means more it’s an IST game! Not for all the marbles but some marbles lol. Also a funky court to throw everyone off. Based on last IST game chips will have 100 free throws and brooks will foul out in 5 min of game time.

    It’s so awesome to legitimately have something to look forward to with the rockets.

    That makes me want to win so much more!!! It will be bad enough listening to the announcers for our West Coast games. They LOVE their Cali teams. :mad:

    Let's just hope our guys don't fall victims to his arm slinging tom foolery. I hope the refs call a fair game.

    I’m not necessarily saying the Rockets are a lock at +7.5 by any means but…

    How the hell can you back the Clippers at -7.5 right now against any functional team, much less the Rockets who have looked good?
