    you fail at Rockets history.

    Vernon Maxwell is a starter.

    The Beverly reference implies that the backup will play more minutes.

    Well, at least Harden isn't going to DNP like the other SG we had in the last playoff series.

    Harden will average 45 points this series against Sefolosha, but will allow Sefeolosha to score just as much. Success.

    Harden with a slight margin. But I am afraid okc with due their best to expose his weaknesses. OKC also does well with help defense.

    good grief, never take a Rockets trivia quiz you will fail.

    I mean you keep getting this question wrong: Did McGrady play in all 22 games in the winning streak?

    harden should be able to exploit it on offense. but i would like more effort on d. just a little effort.

    but i wouldn't be surprised if we complain when sef and kmart find themselves taking uncontested 3s.

    you option should have said James Anderson playing McGrady minutes in 2009.

    I'm actually surprised you know who Vernon Maxwell is, I thought you only rooted for players who aren't real.'

    Maxwell was the starter for the 1994 championship squad. He was a back-up in 1995 but only played 1 game for all of 16 minutes and 3 points. He essentially wasn't a part of the team for the second championship. Does Anderson getting Vernon Maxwell minutes mean he's getting kicked off the team?

    Hmm, that's a tough one but I gotta go with Sefolosha because of his cool name.

    What's the benchmark?

    If Thabo makes Harden inefficient and Harden gives Thabo 12+ points per game consistently, we're cooked

    Unless you actually felt if Harden goes 25 and Thabo 12 it's a win for the Rockets
