    Late start allows less overlapping with the Astros game.

    These two squads are different from the first two meetings.

    Clippers don't want none !!

    Keep on winning, gotta get 2nd seed to deny all dem Harden haters more excuses to deny HArden the MVP!

    But let's be honest if they r set on Giannis, not much Harden can do to get dem to vote for him. He's basically playing the best historic season u will ever witness in this basketball era, and haters will still discredit him.

    Yes, his physicality can bother us. Faried needs to try his best in order to ease some pressure off Tucker in this match up.

    He ain't exactly Doc Rivers' best bud :



    As a side-note, he also holds a record, apparently :

    Gordon should go back to bench.

    Clippers bench is better than their starter.
    Our bench is not that good.

    Comparing the 2nd unit Two-Man Lineups...

    Lou Williams & Montrezl Harrell
    Off. Rating: 112.3
    Def. Rating: 105.7
    Net Rating: +6.6

    Vs

    Chris Paul & Kenneth Faried
    Off. Rating: 121.3
    Def. Rating: 107.1
    Net Rating: +14.2

    Summary: Matching the Clips' star second unit shouldn't be a problem if we mirror it with our second unit starring Chris Paul & Kenneth Faried.

    I'm a little worried about how we match up with the Clippers.

    It's true. But 2nd seed in the West > 1st seed in the East. I don't care how many wins they have. If Harden leads this team all the way back to the 2nd seed after being the 14th seed and doesn't get MVP it's a travesty. And that's without even getting into his historic numbers.

    Go here

    Click on the desired game link. Then you have to click on the viewing window through about 3 pop-up ads, and you'll be able to watch a pretty good live stream of any Rockets game.

    Good news all around. As far as I am concerned, I don't care to see Schumpert every again.
