    Lets relive the thrashing of the Los Angeles Floppers from last playoffs.
    Thrash them again till they lose all hope.
    Its all part of the rockets tuneup for the playoff sweep of the okcheat thunder.

    Meaningless game as we have locked up 3rd seed as well as 3rd best record.

    At least work hard and prove you are worthy of that 3rd spot.

    D'Antoni should rest Harden and Ariza too. There's nothing at stake in terms of the standings. And hell, the Jazz-hating part of me would love to screw over Utah by handing homecourt to the Clippers in Round 1.

    Harden should try to score 82 points.

    One last game for Harden to sway the voters just a bit. Just go for it.

    60 point triple double and a W would be nice.

    No way he sits in his hometown. I bet he gets 34+ minutes.

    Enraged Harden Game. Drops 51 Pts, 12 rebounds and 12 assist and call out Westbrook over the PA system.

    With the 3rd seed locked up (and a better record against the Cav's and Celtics) there is NO reason at all that Harden should be stepping on the court tonight. I don't care if it's hometown.

    No reason to put him in a position to potentially get hurt in a MEANINGLESS game.

    I couldn't agree more! I don't care how many points he can make, and don't care to watch him take a ton of shots from behind the arc to rack them up either. It's time to focus on what works best, rest our starters, and not risk injury. MVP means nothing to me at this point, if it hurts the team.
