    Maybe they should get together with D’Antoni after a game in Houston sometime. Have some beers. MDA seems to have it in for Hartenstein. A discussion about hatred in general might be good for all concerned!

    If WB had James' touch on finishes at the rim,
    he could score 50 pts easy

    Better than it was. It was something like 2 to 2.5 to 1 early.

    Pitiful.

    Just close this out, guys.

    Westbrook: NO attempted threes for the third game in a row. 45-6-10, 13/13 on FTs. Playing to one's strengths...hmm...interesting. Very interesting, indeed.

    Edit: Updated with two more FTs before the end of the game.

    Harden was about to turn that ball over 100%. the bailout foul was a W. just take the foul, don't also complain about if you were also shooting. Even for a Rockets whiner like myself, that was too much.

    I haven't watched a lick of this game, but I just looked at the box score. Is James okay?

    I’d actually say he is better at finishing at the rim If you take getting fouled out of the equation. His touch at the speed he is going has never been seen before.

    If James Harden had Russ’ heart, this team could have won multiple rings already.

    you damn right I'm hating. You know my history. So this hate is not coming out of nowhere.

    MDA trying to kill Clint, Harden and PJ.

    Harden does not know his limitations and is in full sabotage mode pushing through injury

    I HATE IT
