    Rockets will play lackadaisical. Close game at the end, can Harden hit enough crazy shots?

    There's no Russ for this game, but we still better take care of business.

    I expect a big game from Isaiah Hartenstein. He'll lead the Rockets to victory.

    Houston should get a big lead around 20 points. Cp3 knows how to control the rythum if okc leads Houston and he knows how to shoot those final seconds and important ball in the net

    He definitely wants to play that second game of the back-to-back against OKC.

    After this 1-month layoff for the Rockets, I full expect Hawks to embarrass them by at least 30.

    Go Rockets!!!!!!!

    Am watching this hawks team against the nuggets, their shooting is amazing but their defense is so garbage.

    I was with family and ended up missing a few games over the holidays. So I watched the Denver game... Hartenstein looked AWESOME.

    4 days off and a live scrimmage to get back in form for the OKC game. Can't ask for a much better set up.

    Atlanta will no doubt swarm Harden, so he likely gets only 35 or so. How well the supporting cast shoots will determine this game. If they shoot well we win by 30 and get even more rest in the 4th. If not we only win by 10 or so and the game is closer than it should be.

    They should give their game checks back and make a public apology if they lose to this team. Maybe the worst defense in the league, and their offense is actually somehow worse.

    Schedule makers are so strange.

    Hawks play Houston twice this season...both on the 2nd night of a back-to-back.

    On the other hand, Houston comes into both games with at least 2 days rest.
