    In assists at 11.3+ per game. Slightly ahead of Westbrook at 1.3.

    We need to make the playoffs first (which we aren't doing until we play consistent defense)

    If Silas let's Harden play Luka role, Rockets will not only WIN but Harden will also lead NBA in scoring AND assists.

    Until Silas realizes this, Rockets will be up and down. Mostly down.

    This is a waste of time. We already know that Harden cannot carry a team against a super team. Why follow a failing strategy? The quality of Hardens teammates has been the difference in our finishes. Harden has been staggeringly consistent: can dominate offensively in regular season, can be a big playoff scorer who plays good defense. That’s it. He won’t try the failed experiment again, nor should we.

    We’re better off benching him and if the others guys are not ready to carry more, then let them keep practicing till they can. Harden can turn the scoring on anytime.

    Silas knows Harden wants to see the system working even when he is having an off night. Time for Silas to show his skills.

    Benching Harden is not a solution I or the Rockets want any part of.

    On a sidenote, pretty crazy to see a center (Jokic) 3rd in assists. 11 assists a game, no less.

    Hasn’t he been playing the luka role in previous seasons? I’m not sure what you mean by that? (Serious)

    That bench is deep as hell... especially when BMac came back to town. I mean Boogie/Tucker, EG, Bmac plus your high motor players in Tate and Nwaba!?! Give me 1 more backup vet big.. you basically have the Charlotte hornets on your bench! I like a ten-man regular season rotation. I’d love to see harden lead the league in scoring and assists end of season.

    Westbrook is averaging a triple double though.

    Westbrook sucks and stole Harden's MVP.

    We will have won the trade by a huge margin as long as Wall stays healthy.

    I know right!? That 19/11/10 just jumps right off the stat sheet! Definitely contributing to the Wizards in the win column imo

    One of the most fun to watch players in the NBA. Jokic rules
