    Fear the Beard vs. Fear the Brow. Should be a great game! I hope Austin can have a break out game and shoot better from the field.

    Harden has been below-average since the first 2 games. As expected, it doesn't appear that he can carry a team. Since the first 2 games, his TO% is through the roof, and his TS% is horrible. Assists and rebounds have gone down too. Not very impressed so far.

    i would put aminu on harden and let rivers guard parsons

    I'm curious to see how we attack the Rockets. Do we let Lopez and Asik duke it out for 30 min or try to spread them out by bringing Anderson and see if the Rockets try to match up with someone smaller.

    Parsons is too tall for Rivers.

    Harden has also had the likes of Iggy and Tony Allen guard him. Plus, no other scoring threat. Teams are trapping, double teaming. Lin has been a disappointment as well, even though I didn't think he was that good in the first place.

    Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams

    Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston

    Not sure if they'll have their head coach as he's taken a leave of absence to tend to a family matter.

    but i would rather them try to take advantage of rivers guarding parsons than rivers guarding harden

    I don't think anyone in their right minds would put Rivers on Parsons regularly. That's asking Parsons to go off which he is very capable of. Rivers should be able to slow Harden a bit with some help defense. The problem will be Asik and Lin. We will have to keep Asik off the boards and keep Lin out of the paint. Vasquez/Roberts defense will be important in this game.

    We would match up pretty well against this team if Gordon wasn't injured...

    If only we had an elite 2 guard to cancel out Harden on both sides of the ball.

    Because j_bones doesn't want someone else to start a thread before him!

    Can't we just vote and appoint j_bones the 'game thread starter'?

    No because j_bones is just being a troll with these early gameday threads.

    I would rather see Miller start at the 2 instead of Rivers. A better shooter, better defender, and bigger.
