    he shot 40 percent from 3 in February, his overall shooting has been much improved the past 2 months. He is shooting 44 percent in both months

    I'm hoping he gains confidence in his shot. McHale and the staff don't want the cat passing those shots up, not when he's wide open.

    I saw on the bench for a bit during the Nuggets game on Thursday. He was in his workout clothes, like his was working out while the game was being played. I believe he will be back by next week. Howard should get some PT real soon. McHale mentioned during post interview the sooner the better maybe even 15 minutes a game to start Howard off.

    Interesting. We are only 1.5 games ahead of the 5th seed with Clippers having the conference tie-breaker vs us.

    You know he was in a McGrady uniform? lol, he's more implying he wants to be the person defending him, not a spectator.

    It is amazingly tight all the way to the seventh seed. A few victories or a few losses and the standings could be totally different. This is a scary stretch run for everyone in the West.

    Well, that was aggravating game and could easily have gone different if the refs decided they didn't want a free throw line parade like they randomly do some games. Thank the Beard we had an unstoppable force of nature on our side tonight.

    "Rest Harden" makes sense when the game is in hand (or out of hand) within a reasonable confidence interval. It didn't feel safe at any point tonight so I'm okay with the minutes distribution. Wins are golden in the West.

    Great win for the Rockets. Really sucks to see yet another player (Beverley) have an injury.

    I like that when the team was struggling, Harden stepped up big time. What a 4th quarter for him.

    D-Mo had some great offense tonight. I wish he could rebound and play defense a little better.

    Always good to get a win. Down two starters coming in and losing a third mid-game and we were still able to pull it out.

    Hopefully Beverley is okay, he is starting to play better now, what a frustrating season, injuries on top of injuries.

    Harden was awesome as usual.

    Good game Smith and DMo.

    Good to probably get Dwight back next game, it'll be a tough one! We can't lose the season series vs. the Pelicans can we?

    Listen. Harden is everything. Just a special, special player. And Josh is a G. I have a lot of respect for him recognizing how short-handed we are and pushing through because of it. Really wish Joey had managed to avoid that last foul so he could sit out a bit more, but man -- salute to him.

    Really, really hope Bev's injury is nothing too serious. The idea of Jet playing heavy minutes heading into the postseason does not incite me to chorus.

    Harden is special but hero-ball continues to worry me. It works for the greats I guess.

    I guess Nick Johnson would have to get some run in that case.
