    I'll take the small rest games so we can make the playoff run. Just need it to not jeopardize our number 1 seed status.

    James Harden is a true professional & deserves all the rest that is necessary.

    I'd be very very tempted to rest him for both games . That way he has until Thursday .

    We aren't going anywhere without a fully healthy James .

    If Minny can just help the Rockets out today, and depending on how good CP3 looks against the Mavs, I wouldn't be mad sitting James for an extra game.

    To me the hunt for the 1 seed is a bit overblown . I want homecourt as much as the next guy , but not if it comes at the expense of health .

    I think we can be anyone on any court if we are 100 percent .

    I don't want the Rockets to get injured going after the #1 seed, but the stats show a ridiculous amount of success with the team with the top seed. Rockets need all the luck and all the advantages.

    Agree , but I would have to look at the stats . I think in most cases the top seed usually is the most talented/ best team by a decent margin.

    If we win the 1 seed by .5 games or even 1.5 games that's not much of a margin .

    I think HCA is important , but not as important as our actual form in the games ... Which I think rest can be a big part of .

    If we end up in WCF against Warriors, we need to have HCA in case we go 7. Obviously don't want to sacrifice health, but I hope we do everything we can to get 1st seed if possible.
