It’s all about mindset, people. Sure, the Houston Rockets haven’t given us many reasons to look fondly on this season, but there is still good to be seen. Despite the off-court issues, James Harden has consistently put up amazing numbers. Dwight Howard has been reliable for a nightly double-double for most of the season. Trevor Ariza has had some of the best games of his career, and Donatas Motiejunas is back and in action.
Houston’s record doesn’t give us reason to be happy but I, for one, plan to insist on looking to the bright side.
