Hahahahahaha!!!! Thanks man, I was having a really bad morning (think I broke my toe or at least injured it really badly and can barely walk and my gf left this morning and I won't get to see her for at least 2 weeks maybe more depending on our schedules). Picturing James playing defense was just what I needed!

Lets just hope he has a better offensive game tonight to make up for his horrible defense

And let's hope OMRI keeps playing like the rockets MVP

check out harden at the 47sec mark when he realized that redick got free and said "oh sh**""....redick makes an uncontested 4ft layup. harden was standing there the whole time watching the ball while redick moved towards the rim...unbelievable...he wasn't even playing D, much less bad D....somebody needs to tweet this video to him.

when is the last time he actually play defense?
i'm so desperate i think mchale should put parsons at pf and start garcia at sf, so garcia can guard opponent better offensive sf/sg

lol....

nice GT...
Lillard/Matthews/Batum own Lin/Harden/WhiteLBJ

Wish Houston had some beast post player they could get going early... ugh.
Only Casspi & Cisco can save us in this game.

Portland wins by 5

I like Greg Smith. Greg Smith is awesome. He has huge hands and the few things he knows how to do--dunk and rebound--he does extremely well. I hope McHale gets him some big minutes tonight.

Greg Smith plays worse defense than James Harden... but at least he tries.

I think it is safe to say Lillard is going to destroy the Rockets backcourt.

Hope Harden is better on the offensive end. Harden has attack the rim to open up your game Wesley can not guard you.

My keys to the game Batum and Howard defense on LMA. Do not be afraid to wonder away from the rim you since Asik is playing at center

Meatcookie you always make such nice game threads

i dont think they should play the twin tower thing tonite....Casspi or one of the young guys on LMA.

also want to see canaan get some minutes.

Matthew play good D on Harden too
i have a feeling Batum is going to get another triple-doubles tonight (i'm calling 10 steals)

I think Harden is going to come out and have a great game on both ends...


if he dosent then Rox have some big problems ahead

Casspi may be my new favorite player (after white lbj and harden) I still want him and Lin on the second unit with Asik....tj or motie (whoever is playing best as our starting pf)

Lin driving and dishing to Garcia and casspi or pick and roll to Asik is a top second unit (unless they have a Jamal Crawford)

I am starting to love Lin but I really want him to be our Jamal off the bench but he has a conciense (still could be our dagger off the bench)

I dont actually think harden is capable of playing good defense. Doesnt have freakish length or speed. That leaves the mental aspect of playing D. which lets face it he just doesnt have. They should hide harden on D. Take the lesser offensive threat between SG/SF.

Is it just me or has Parsons D regressed too?

through 4 regular season game and preseason and last season
i think best option at starting PF now is Smith
he doesn't try to over-do thing where you see TJ will try to do
D-Mo just look lost on both defense and offense and he's not a good spot up shooter
i like Lin+Casspi+Garcia off the bench, main reason i want Beverley to start

if Covington isn't just suck on playing defense against nba player
i don't mind seeing him as a stretch pf

Looking for a decent game from Jones and/or DMO tonight on the B2B. I think the Rockets are focused are ready to get another road win.
