    He's not on a decline, he's injured.

    Another game where Russ tries to show up Lillard, only to get cooked by Lillard

    Considering the roster they had available Monday night, it was one of the best collective team regular season efforts in Rockets‘ history. They had no business winning in one of the toughest places to play in the NBA without their three best players.

    2-2 is not that bad of a road trip. shrug.

    Lakers about to win this year anyway. If you think the NBA is not going to let the Lakers win in the wake of Kobe's unfortunate passing you're kidding yourself.

    Still surreal that Kobe is dead..

    Harden's pride gets in the way sometimes. You could see, he had no lift in his shot or legs in the second half

    He's definitely in a decline in his physical abilities. Look at how lean he was in 17-18 compared to now. He was far quicker and faster then.

    yup, while you're worried about that the rockets continue to be one of the worst defensive teams in the league cool. and they still shuffle their lineup every other game bc they have no ariza

    I’d honestly just rest Harden til he’s 100%...he’s not doing himself or the team any favors by playing while hurt.

    That said, once he’s feeling right I have no doubt that he’ll set the league on fire again.

    Gordon stunk as well, once he decided to drive he got to the foul line

    HP3 with all due respect man there is more going on here than that you have to know that with the eye test, this guys game, body language, the way he berates other players when he ****s up defensively lately, he just IS NOT a good teammate right now and I don't think it's just an injury deal here ... the league started to shut his free lunch down with the incessant FTs and ever since then he has not played very well at all..

    Teams beat teams they’re not supposed to every night in the nba. It was a good win but not one of the best in franchise history lol. Not even the best of the season.

    Then, the question is why was he successfully able to lobby the Rockets’ training and coaching staffs to let him play? It’s not like other guys didn’t step up in his absence in Denver and Utah.
