Glad to hear he is sitting out this one - it was painful to watch him the last game, since it was very clear he couldn`t do the stuff he usually does. Usually he is driving at will, last game he basically had to either take the long jumper or pass the ball. Now, I am far from being a LOF, but I would really like to see him running our Offense tonight. Lots of pick and rolls, slashing and setting people up. Lin is dangerous when he plays aggressive, and we lack real shot creators when Harden is out.
FINALLY. I wish he sat sooner so that he didn't have to play on that injured foot. We will need him for playoffs
Did anyone see that picture of his feet? His toes are all purple and his feet look swollen...but that's not even the worse of it. Gross, go get yourself a peti Beard.
after hoping that Harden could rest up through this easy stretch of games I hope he gets back soon. This team SHOULD be able to withstand this injury (if they just foul a guy we win...) but you see...when we need clutch points...Mchale is just going to ISO, instead it will be with Dwight Post-ups and not Harden ISOs. I'd rather get a Harden ISO then a Dwight post up. Hope the game off was what he needs because until this team can learn how to close games they are going to need him.
Harden drws doubles andf he is relentless at attacking the defense and drawing fouls. He changes the whole mindset and gameplan of the defensive team. The more fouls he draws, the less aggressive they become and we can be more aggressive as we have them in the penalty.
Prophetic. Except Parsons got a couple ISO's called for him too. Meanwhile, that scrub Lin stands in the corner.
McHale says "We'll see" on Harden playing. Was listed doubtful, gametime decision. Sore foot - CSN 11/23/13 5:20pm
Harden is the best scorer and arguably the leader of this team,he just need to start play defense and put the team first before himself
and yet they want to play him this early in the season instead of making him rest until it heals.... makes sense. cue chronic pain later on.
wat da faq? He should take a couple days off, it's still early in the season. Better safe than sorry man.
He needs to be iced up to get that swelling that. We will need him for the Memphis game, but I say rest him tonight, play him in Memphis and them give him a week or two to get this sorted out. We wont be wining jack in the playoffs if he keeps pounding away till it becomes a chronic issue and slows him down forever.
