    it would be disappointing for the Rocket to lose this game. Blazers are the worst team in this crazy gauntlet of contenders.

    OK, and a lot of that is due to pure physical AND mental exhaustion. Also, the game isn’t over yet. He’s grown tremendously as a pro and is hungrier than ever. Let’s see how he responds in the 4th.

    The days of “hungover Harden” are effectively over. Let’s give the man his due and bury cliched media narratives once and for all.

    Blazers always treat the Rockets as their super bowl when they're in Portland. Every single time.

    Nurkic can't be strong enough to back nene down and also fall lifelessly to the floor after a little incedental contact . Flopper

    Yup, largely due to exhaustion. But make no mistake. He’ll bounce right back after a few days rest.

    The man is on a mission this season.

    Was hoping blazers beat thunder last night because not only I hate thunder but also because blazers always come back strong after a loss

    Blazers lost a tough one last night. They are extra focused tonight.

    Portland has complete impunity to just bump and harass our ballhandlers, particularly James, and nothing is getting called
