    Are we sure this isn't one of Harden's doubles from the footlocker commercial?

    Lin has been playing excellent defense, by the way.

    Bad: H and H are off

    Good: Tie game with pretty much nothing from our all stars. Watch out when they wake up.

    I gotta question our shot selection this first half...these are not wide open 3's we're taking. Especially Harden's shot selection

    Harden just needs to play his game. Drive, get to the line. That will open up his three point shots. He is close on all his shots so maybe getting to the line will help him get his rhythm.

    WTF is going on Harden? Needs to step up and take strong to the hoop instead shooting those 3s

    I hope that puts an end to the Twin Towers experiment once and for all. It doesn't work, McHale. Go small. You may get killed on the boards, but it was happening when you were playing big anyway.

    The great news is the Rockets still aren't playing that well and Harden has been horrendous, yet the game is tied.

    Harden needs to sit now bring in Daniels I don't like his body language. I defend him 1 st quarter I thought he was okay. Now he's awful. Not even trying on offense

    Have to be happy with the score with no production for H&H.

    Especially when LMA is on the bench.
