    We just gonna keep ignoring the fact that 35 year old “past his prime” Lebron is still better than Harden?

    But how good was 34 year old Lebron without Davis last year?

    Nobody is trading Lerbon when he is playing his best.

    I can't stand LeBron. I just don't like him. Yeah he is good at basketball, but he is a whiney, self absorbed, coach killing, prima donna.

    He has no skill either right?

    He also constantly stays on the ground for extended time complaining to the ref when he thinks he deserves a foul while his team plays 4 on 5 defense.

    He also constantly runs in to defenders and tries to draw fouls rather than score buckets.

    He uses cryptic messages such as "I know what needs to be done" where in all likelihood "what has to be done" has no introspective backing behind it and is purely about blaming something else outside of himself.

    My point is if you don't like LeBron for those things you listed, how do you justify being a fan of Harden?

    I have been critical of Harden for "volume" shooting, over dribbling, and not playing defense. Both players have incredible skills.

    LeBron only played 55 games but overall, they were 37-45 amidst all the drama about "will I be traded by LeBron?"

    Imagine a line-up if the Capela-Covington swap didn't happen, but we ended up signing Carroll, Caboclo and Green anyway.

    Westbrook / Rivers
    House / Gordon / McLemore
    LeBron / Green
    Tucker / Carroll
    Capela / Chandler / Caboclo

    That team seems pretty damn good.

    This strictly a 'me' thing and hoop heads are OK to disagree. I dislike Lebron. He's probably a cool cat in real life, but I don't like him from a NBA fan perspective. Didn't like him before the decision and don't care for him now.

    He's the one dude if he comes to the Rockets, even if more wins, I will stop watching until he leaves. I don't care if it sounds irrational.

    sorry, but I call bullsh*t on that

    there’s no way Lebron would be happy in Houston anyways...he and his family do not want to live here, and playing in trash TC for the Rockets doesn’t even come close to playing in packed Staples for the Lakers

    I don't disagree if you say Lebron has reasons not to want to come here. This is my feelings if Lebron, hypothetically do come here, my fandom on the Rockets will get paused. :D

    it took the Lakers just 1 year to build a championship team around Lebron

    meanwhile, the Rockets have only been a legit title contender once since the 90s

    Why is your hate for ol’ Bron at that level? If Bron came here I’m immediately ordering season tickets.

    It may borderline irrational. I don't mind if others cheer for him,.... If he brings HOU a championship?.... Ugh I can't. Just can't lol.
