    Desperate Lin fans posting these stuff with their multiple ids. Must be hard being a lin troll these days. Their hero is a scrub and harden is killing it

    You can probably get a couple of above average players and 4 first round picks for Harden right now.

    I didn't say I would do it, I'm just saying that's the bar for Harden trade right now.

    Just curious on how you came up with this information. Is this fact or are you trying to pass it off as fact? Which one.

    You guys are joking. But if he has another effortless playoff moment, we should get him up outta Houston

    He averaged Reb 6.8, AST 6.6 and PPG 31.6 during the playoffs. Those are pretty good numbers. If that is your definition of effortless, then he is screwed before the playoffs even began. I swear, I loss faith in people’s ability to reason on message boards. However, I also am aware how overly critical and unsatisfied/happy people get on here too. He is doing great this season. Just enjoy it. If the team fails, then it’s the teams fault. Also, there is such a thing as doing everything you possibly can to succeed (aka try your hardest) and still come out failing or losing. Just saying. Maybe you should cut him some slack.

    Thank God the Dream didn't have to put up with idiots of this level before he won the big one. Hell, they'd probably be calling for his head during the Choke City days with the Suns.

    Some were
    Some thought he faked an injury and wanted to trade for 4 quarts on the dollar —> better chance of getting a two or more core players back for him. Like a Ric Smits and Reggie Miller packages. We were super spoiled remember he was the lesser of the two twin towers before Ralph’s injury. So some didn’t completely understand his true greatness as he grew from this kid that wanted to fist fight in every other game he played into the Dream. At times he would also be fasting making him so weak he almost needed IV’s post game. Most could not understand him when he was interviewed. It was the 80’s so a lot of fans were ready for a change.

    But he did, y’all were either too young or not around the game back then. Dream was getting crucified constantly, dudes wanted him traded and swore up and down he would never get us to a championship.

    The Heat, Blazers and Clippers were throwing players at us. The thing is we didn’t have forums and social media. It was all newspaper articles, cooler talk and at what ever gym you hooped at.

    This why it’s so ignorant to make absolute statements about a player about what he won’t accomplish. You never trade away a dominant player in his prime, you add pieces and hopefully you break thru. People just don’t realize how hard it is to win at any level in sports even tougher in the professional ranks.
