I think it's more the goofy nature or the childish actions that ppl disliked about him, and then there was his below average post game.
Yeah, Harden always said that he respects people who lives and dies basketball. He also said it right after Dwight left, so there was no doubt James pushed him out. They also wrecked that season with the cold war between them I still give Dwight cred for choosing Houston when we were a free agent wasteland, but he's dropped a lot since then.
Harden lets people get away with this sh-t. Even NBA pariah Dwight Howard gets to dunk on Harden with no retribution. After watching the clip that tweet was click bait to the max. Dwight was complimentary of Harden. Trying to drive traffic to the podcast using everyone's irrational hatred of James Harden.
I always felt he did alright in Houston. Could have been better, but he put in work that first year in the playoffs. History could've been a lot different had he gone to the warriors instead Damn you, Dwirt.
Kobe had it out for him because he wanted to make Dwert the second coming of a Shaq lite. Did not work. I dun think many players really liked Dwight, as media did not like Harden.
He actually was praising Harden for how crazy good he is... but he did admit that he felt Harden got him off the team and was bitter about that.
Good to hear he’s bitter about such an awesome talent not wanting him around. Seriously. It means he’s one iota less egomaniacal and one iota more self aware than he used to be. Now, if he could just pinpoint the fault being his own, he has a real shot at actual development of character.
