Win!

 

"all we do is win....win....win...no matter what"/ dj khaled

 

In this season, James Harden scored at least 30 points against every team except.... Hawks.

 

I hope they don’t play down to the level of the Hawks even though they are decent

 

Rest CP and let him play on Memphis the next day

 

GUARANTEEING A SPECTACULAR NIGHT OF HATING FOR THE MDA HATERS AND ALL OTHER KINDS OF HATERS

can't wait

 

you done messed up

 

Harden is gonna drop another 20pts with shooting 6/25.

 

Trap game.

 

The House wins, and a mermaid is discovered by 11pm.

 

The Who were named after the Hou. abbreviation history.

 

Hope we make it boring.

Want to see all the Huerter hype going on NBA twitter. Collins is a beast and want to see Capela and Faried showing him how to dunk. Also have the feeling of some Bearding tonight, something along a 50pt game to keep up on the MVP Race.

 

That means D'Antoni is saving Nene for the Spurs on Friday. Lots of minutes for House with Shumpert and EG resting.

 

He isn't Donnell Blaylock, but he's certainly adorable!

Spoiler

GO ROCKETS!!!

I'm already furious

Man , I just once want a blowout where we keep our foot on the enemy and harden doesn't play in the 4th .

I just once want harden to be able to relax and take time off to fully prepare for the playoffs .

I think this is the best way forward for us to win the championship

Many other teams rest their best players to try and gain an edge in the postseason . We are one of the few teams that tend to eschew this idea .

I think that when people look back a couple of decades from now there will be 1 of 2 viewpoints .

1. What the hell were nba teams doing resting players so much ? it doesn't play a big role in injury prevention / energy advantage in the playoffs

2 what the hell were teams doing NOT resting players ? It's clear that it leads to better future outcomes in terms of keeping a player healthy and them having an extra step when they play

I think the current evidence ( mostly eye-test) points to number 2 .

I'm sure the rockets staff is doing their due diligence . I just don't have confidence in the the training staff . I think if they are waiting for data to govern their decision , good data on player health won't become available anytime soon .

MDA has said before that "the evidence to support resting isn't there "

And I agree if you are simply looking at players getting hurt playing on a b2b . But the simple hurt / not hurt value doesn't fully inform you .

 

good for you getting a jump on things here

 

man we really need to sit our star players Harden and CP more..not these role players..
