Harden is on another planet right now and right now is the perfect time to improve the roster for the long haul and playoffs, at some point he will hit a wall and will need help if morey has a realistic expectation for a title.

38 and counting for James. He’s becoming the entire Buffalo bills organization before our eyes. 

Ho hum. Another 40 point game and win

I hate you for that.

Can James do it again on Thursday against the Warriors? Would be nice to get Eric Gordon back for that tilt.

He's playing out of his mind right now, I am very impressed.  He is basically almost unstoppable in iso on the top of the key.  I only hope he can pace himself for the playoffs without burning out too early.  I had Giannis as MVP for a long while now, but Harden is streaking right up there.

big 4 game stretch coming up starting tonight: @ golden state, @ portland, vs. denver, vs. milwaukee.

if harden keeps up his recent stretch of play through these 4, he's probably the mvp front runner a week from now.

This is winnable, which is surprising to me. I thought GS would dominate this game at home, but they do not look as good as past years. If our defense was a little better we would be up 10+.

how in the motherfuck do they miss that shit?
How do they miss that OB call? Ridiculous
That's one of the worst missed calls I've seen in a long time.
we got hosed

That’s got to be the all time worst missed call I’ve ever seen. 
And I’m not a spring chicken. Seen a lot of bad calls. 
But, Got Damn. 
His shoes blend in with the paint, anyone could have mistaken it.

Harden. Is. Not. Human. Wow.  He's carrying so much load right now and just straight up dominating.  Very impressed, and the refs tonight are probably relived because that missed OB call was really horrific at a bad time.  Great game overall.

Holy fuck that was ridiculous. M. V. P. 

He hit it in Draymond’s eye, got fouled with no call and looked right over at him while on the ground and yelled “Motherfucker!”

That was incredible. 9 straight with 35+ and 5+ assists. MVP moment early in the season.

Austin Rivers tho 

I'm coming around him. He's bought in and become a team player.

How long can Harden sustain his blitzkrieg performance? Hope Eric Gordon and CP3 are back soon. Want Harden to save some of his lightning in a bottle for the playoffs.

Incredible performance. I’m so glad I stuck through watching that game late last night. Harden’s game winning shot was incredible. Pleasantly surprised with Austin Rivers and the rest of the bench is coming into shape. The refs not calling the ball out of bounds against the Warriors with Durant completely in the yellow paint was the most ridiculous ref fuckup against the Rockets since the refs didn’t start the clock against the Jazz at the end of the game in the playoffs back in the day with Gene Peterson going ballistic. One of the all time Geno moments and we still won.

Rockets were down 73-53 1 minute into the 3Q.

Harden is the best player in the game right now, he has taken the mantle from Lebron. Lebron has never done what Harden is doing this season. It was bound to happen sooner or later.

I'm liking where the depth of this team might be heading. The guy I would like the most is Joe Harris and his 48% 3P shooting, but with House having 3 very good games in a row now, he might have bought himself some more time as the starter. Ennis didn't look fully healthy last night, and Gerald Green started slow but ended up having a nice scoring night.

PG - Paul(hurt), Rivers, Knight

SG - Harden, Gordon(hurt), Green

SF - House, Ennis(hurt), Green

PF - Tucker

C - Capela, Nene

 

I guess they could also use another big behind Tucker, though Ennis would probably slot in there when he gets full healthy. Right now PJ and Harden are playing way too many minutes.
