    Hardly random, considering he's a point guard and all.

    That was an amazing game. The best part is when he told us Harden was sick. Harden looked bad until the end.

    not the best part for me. best part was leading the rockets to clinching the wcf. any excuses outside of that takes a backseat

    yeah unfortunately he won't get much shine from the media, all they are going to focus on is the Jazz made it closer and our performance wouldn't get us demolished against the warriors. Funny how Utah before this series was so impressive and people focused on their 2nd half of the season since getting gobert and having one of the leagues best records, dangerous team, all sudden they get beat in 5 and now they are a young team that shouldn't have been here, such an easy match up made in heaven for the rockets.

    CP3 should of been All-Star this season. Those 4 dudes (CJ, Damian, Kyle, Demar) got smoked in the playoffs. What I love about CP3 is that he said it is about us, not them.

    PJ Tucker's first conference finals as well. At age 33. He was huge in tonight's game. 19 points on 9 shots.

    It's kinda cool that within a matter of days two great players who have never made it out of the second of the playoffs finally do. Alex Ovechkin at 32 finally beats his nemesis Sydney Crosby in the NHL playoffs to make it to his first conference finals and Chris Paul who just turned 33 finally gets to the NBA conference finals. Very well deserved by two veterans and future hall of famers.

    He meant in this game. I don't think he meant it negatively either, just that Harden wasn't Harden (he was sick as everyone knows).

    harden carries the rockets thru the playoffs averaging 29 & 7 +10 BPM. second to Lebron.

    haters: quiet

    harden has a lung infection and still plays contributes 18 & 4 and attracts the defense so cp3 can get career playoff high 40 because of playing with harden

    haters: "cp3 dragging harden to the wcfs"

    yeah cp3 is good.. but not 40 points good

    even cp3 admits it.. harden gets the defensive pressure off him..

    cp3 joined the rockets so he won't be the main focus of the defense.. when was the last time cp3 scored close to 40 in the playoffs anyway..

    You mean you doubted him from what he's done in the past? How could you?
    I should rat you out and put you in that "doubter" thread. LOL.
