Or maybe Zoran is coming to Houston with Gogi. Or maybe him following DMo suddenly means absolutely nothing at all.

My gut feeling is that right now America would probably be rooting for us over almost everyone except for Atlanta and Chicago. This twitter will probably play well as funny and bold for the media, giving them something to talk about. And we/this game, certainly will be on the map tomorrow.
I love the tweet. There's absolutely nothing wrong with being the "Hated" team, if it goes that far. We already have Beverley who everyone hates. Harden isn't shy of telling the world how good he is (Which is certainly not a bad thing, you have to believe in yourself), so sure, make us the bad guys. I'll gladly welcome it.
Absolutely brilliant move. Its a trolling tweet, however, there are much more than that. We are done playing with the Cavs this season, nothing more than happier to see an angry and upset Lebron for the next month and a half for our other opponents. Morey should give the guy who did the tweet a raise.
I think the twitter is in good fun, and plays off of the losing team's star's nickname. Not a big deal. It wasn't in bad taste or anything like that. However, I wouldn't have done it. I'd rather not celebrate prematurely. Those things can be twisted in the future the next time Harden has a sub par game. I'd be happy and just let our play on the court do all the talking that needs to be done. Sure, hype the Rockets win, but I wouldn't bring the other team into it at all. On the other hand the Rockets have been getting less attention and praise than they deserve all season, and maybe this will bring deserved attention to the team. Though again, bringing attention to the team shouldn't be that high of a priority. And as bad as the Rockets lack of attention has been, Memphis has been getting looked over even worse.
This tweet does several things...gets the attention of the national scene..Bold statement. And yes Lebron will see this. I expect playoff Lebron from here on out. Unfortunately for him, he will get physically burnt out. That being said, the CAVS at full strength is a better team than the Rockets are full strength. Irving and James have played very well off each other; they both can create for each other and their teammates. Truly wished the Rockets were able to get one more play maker. The burden Harden carries for this team is unbelievable, and he does so without any complaints...Hope he does win the MVP...many folks have him leading that convo
