Dude has been reborn this season! The man is a freak of nature!

He was awful to start the year but once december rolled around he became really good


I want Nene to retire as a Rocket.

Years from now. The way he looks now I think he might be able to play until he's 50.

Agreed. I suggest more threes, more points in the paint and more free throws.

And James Harden deciding to be James Harden.

I love that this team can run up a score like this without him needing to be the primary scoring factor!

I loved what Bull just said!

Sweet Lou had 27 points in his Rockets debut.

Otis Thorpe had 28.

James Harden had 36 and 12 assists. :lol:

I remember at the time that we actually had elements in our fanbase who wanted Harden to continue to come off of the bench. I couldn't see it then, and I really can't see it now! :lol:

124 points and no one on the Rockets has over 20 points.

And Harden is the highest scorer? So quiet!

The Rockets 3-point barrage has got to be emotionally draining for opposing teams when they are hitting.

Even when they are only moderately successful, the efficiency rating is in their favor.

Looking at the score I see that it was just another modern All-Star Game and...wait, it wasn't an All-Star Game?

I'll take it!

GO ROCKETS!!!
