ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Warriors 2/12/2013

Not too worried about Toney Douglas. We have Beverlysanity Anderson can play more minutes (as long as he doesn't play in crunch time ) if Harden needs more rest tonight.

 

Westbrook hasn't missed a single game so far in his career. He has played in 363/363 games.

Westerbrook is very young, only 24, So I'll believe it's the youth that gives him the benefit Still, 363/363 games, that's just unbelievable!

Do you know how many game Lebron James missed in his almost 10 years NBA career? Just curious.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Harden said he will play tonight. Still sore. Was definitely worried. Lots of praise for treatment from Jason Biles.</p>&mdash; Jonathan Feigen (@Jonathan_Feigen) <a href="https://twitter.com/Jonathan_Feigen/status/301418062148681731">February 12, 2013</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

 

Greg Oden is young as well.

Thanks. Only 33 games missed in almost 10 years!?!? Dang! God does play some favoritism

 

LeBron never gets injured because the force of Flop is strong in this one.

So I can watch it on NBATV at my house?? (Yes I live in Houston)

 

Harden to me seems more healthy than lebron? How many games The Beard missed in his career due to injury?

 

Worried that everyone thinks Lin will do great tonight, seems like the opposite happens when so many ppl are that optimistic. Hope you guys are right

 

I'm just worried Harden will get a tear in the knee. Pretty much everybody who gets a tear starts off with a "bruised sore knee". And I like how people keep saying it's just a little bump from last game. When the knee is bruised and sore, it usually means something inside isn't circulating properly. If agitated, could lead to a tear since there's not much blood circulation/recovery at the knee area. He's still sore today in shoot-around which could potentially mean that if he hits another impact, he could tear his meniscus.

 

No, it will be blacked out just like league pass.

 

**** YOU COMCAST!!!

 

That sounds scary. Hope Harden is OK.

 

Stupid. Harden is tied for 8th in minutes, behind Durant, Lebon and 34 year old Kobe. He's a star who plays star minutes.

 

Yep, nothing wrong with his minutes per game number, but it still might be wiser to sit him out tonight even though he wants to play. Let that knee heal up properly.

 

Just curious, can you back that claim up? While I am sure you claim makes sense, I dont believe any significant portion of Knee ligament tears begin with a bruise.

 

Harden missed 27 games so far.
