    only rookies post articles by Fran Blinebury. He got fired by the Chronicle and hates Houston sports now.

    Harden was tired from a whirlwind week and back to back games. Anyone would be. No one shut anyone down.

    They also put Batum on him sometimes - who is like 6'8" - length advantage on Harden.

    lol. It doesn't make you any less of a fan if you admit the other team played well.

    It's superstar talk at least. Harden scored 24 and was still 'shut down'? Those are the types of things you say about the KDs or Lebrons (not saying Harden is a KD or Lebron. I'm saying he's better /joke).

    It also doesn't make you any less of a Fran to admit that you hate Houston.

    It took him 24 shots to get 24 points. That's not a good game.

    It's not just his name being Fran, it's because he lost his job to a dude name Dick Justice. That's a big slap in the face...if you know what I mean.

    Poor Fran. Lost his job to Dick Justice and Megan Manfull. so embarrassingly funny.

    I agree... perhaps he wanted other players to develop their game ....on the other hand had those crucial 2-3 missed layups went well he would be easily at 30+ again...so it was a bit of a luck thing....

    perhaps it is a bit of exaggeration but I like it more to see this wonderfull team spirit and good plays from other players even if we lose few games more...then Harden forcing 50 down the opponents throat...and it looked in the 2nd period that he is up to it, when he suddenly stopped for whatever reason and got out of his MJ mode...;)

    dude needs to watch more than the boxscore. The basket rim played better D than matthews. Batum on the other hand was awesome. He was everywhere.
