    Hardens priorities should be rings first accolades second. Which is why I said he doesn't priortize winning above all else. He has ulterior motives.

    Which is a problem for me because I prefer the Rockets over Harden.

    I agree 1000 percent. Hes not lacking the capability. It's just what he decides prioritize.

    No they won't.
    The Rockets won 2 and people are still disrespecting them. And nobody mentions Dream as a top all time player.

    It's a waste of time caring about other people .

    But apparently lots of people here waste lots of time.

    Win a ring. It shuts everybody up. There's no other way.

    He needs to get a ring.

    Nobody can discount that Dream was a champion. They can say what they want about Jordan - you just need to point out that Jordan LOST in 1995 and Hakeem won.

    Casual fans will never understand history.

    This is exactly why caring about casual fans is a waste of time

    A Laker fan doesn't like Harden,

    WHO CARES!

    I'm about to give up on the vast majority of NBA fans.

    Most recent argument was why Harden had arguably passed up Wade, even without a ring.

    Wade's prime was very, very short if you look carefully. about 5 years.

    Harden is posting career highs in scoring, BPM, etc... arguably, he could be in his "prime" for 3 years more without slowing down much

    That means since 14-15, he's been balling out, and he could have an 8-9 year prime that rivals anyone who has ever played the game.

    But nobody cares about facts.

    Harden is the best player this franchise has ever had. Lets just enjoy the ride and hope we get a chip along the way.

    Nobody ever cares about facts, they only care about what they believe in

    The problem is not casual fans
    It's fake Rockets fans who join Clutchfans

    We need them deleted. You can see the troll accounts being created this year, it's obvious.

    Thanos snap needs to happen

    Why? Just because I said Harden is the best Rockets player ever?

    What I don't get is why people on this forum worry about getting people banned for what they perceive to be just a casual fan. Or a Harden hater, or because they don't agree with their opinion

    If you guys think your so smart and know so much and not just a "casual" fan then just have actual points to back up your opinion, instead of a drop the mic rant that proves NOTHING.

    The hate against Harden is out of control...he has an amazing game..the media says nothing! He has one bad game and it's front page news! I believe Nike is behind the Harden is a no defense flopper narrative..they're still mad he signed with Adidas!

    Maybe when Lebron retires and the NBA/media need to put someone else in the center of their stories.
