    I think I agree given what we've seen so far this year from Lin. Give him the ball and the green light and he can generate enough offense in Harden's place. It's amazing to think that if you said that last year at this time, you would have been laughed off the forum as a delusional LOF.

    Let him rest as long as he needs to, we will do okay without him.

    after dallas loss, im convince that Harden's a cancer if his shooting percentage remain sucks because it means that there would be no production from his ISO which basically dominate rocket's play in the 4th quater.

    and if we win...who gives a ****, we are winning. Why do you care more about the presence of lofs than the Rockets winning?

    AB unleashed! I hope some playing time transfers from Harden. He's already breaking down.

    But it's ok to excuse Lin's first half performance last year due to him recovering from knee surgery the year before?

    Ouch...!!! Lol... That's just how it's going to be with some fans when it comes to Harden. He can do no right in their eyes.

    With that said I think they should rest him as long as possible until his feet are heeled. He's extremely important to this team and they are not contenders without him.

    I like the ball movement without Harden. But we still had a lot of turnovers.

    I think high TO is part of this system or the team really has no chemistry.

    Of course it's the system, it can get marginally better but we are not going to ever be great at protecting the ball until we decide we want to put an emphasis on slowing down a little and improving our halfcourt offense.

    Hmm, I remember folks, including me bashing on Jeremy and calling him a joke when he was bricking those shots...and even in the playoffs when he was injured but still playing..

    but hey... I guess when you see through Harden goggles, the man can do no wrong.

    not missing any nights at the club though, LOL. Houston media too soft. If Carmelo didnt play because of a foot injury and was then found shuffling at the club, he'd be roasted!! Justifiably so!

    This is kinda unprovoked backlash at Lin... the other person needs to at least mention Lin in comparison to make it about Lin right?

    Seriously? You guys really must hate Harden.

    I just think it's weird that people will bash Harden while he is hurt and say his injuries are not an excuse - which is fine - but it seems it's the same exact people who excused Lin for recovering from injuries last year.

    I am just saying, you can't have it both ways - how about some consistency. Either excuse them both, or bash them both.
