Harden putting up crazy numbers playing at the 16th fastest pace. Wait till pringles ups the pace to what he normally coaches at.

As of now, everyone is good to go with the exception of Brandan Wright.
A lot of the injury problems has to do with previous training staff and coaches overplaying these guys year in and year out. Hollinger said something interesting on the radio yesterday talking about how both the coach and FO have to go hand in hand when it comes to managing a player's minutes. He mentioned previous coaches didn't do a good job of that.
Right now, Memphis is just paying the price for 1) not developing their younger players earlier (specifically two years ago when we knew Zbo and TA were starting to get old) and 2) overplaying TA / Zbo / Conley / Gasol to try and squeeze out a W or even in games where we down by 20 in the 4th and the coach would leave them in the game.
Conley is fine. I think they are just really being cautionary about him and keeping an eye out for his achilles. I think TA role needs to be reduced somewhat anyway because he gets hurt right around the playoffs every year due to his hamstring.
Parsons is fine. Its going to take him about a month or so to really get back into his game. Grizz writer mentioned how Parsons had a lot of ups and downs last year after coming back from injury, then he strung together 2 months of really good basketball.
I'm a lot more optimistic about this season than last season. We started the season 3-6 last year and had a team full of veterans being overplayed and no sort of upside because Joerger refused to play young guys. Ended up going on a 34-18 stretch til early March when everybody went down despite all of the other crap going on.
This year, we finally got our "projected" starting lineup in Game 7, have several young guys in the rotation and a system that can help us move forward towards the future.
If we are barely above .500 or sub .500 by the end of January, I may be worried. I see us making a strong push come mid-December or so once the team is able to get into a groove.

Since Harden been with the rockets they've consistently been top 5 or so in pace. That's with him leading the league in minutes and playing 80 games a season

Harden about to average 40 / 20 / 8 / 7 turnovers if Houston gets up to #1 in pace.

Yea 30/10, #1 in points & assists, is def in reach for Harden. Would be one of the most prolific regular seasons ever.
Lol @ Harden getting gassed.

Pace don't have anything to do with him being fatigued. He's not resting as much on defense. Thus his career high in fouls per game this year
