[Ryan Russillo] I would never say anything if I wasn't 100% sure, but CP3 wants out.

Anyone who has listened to him on Bill Simmons podcast (of which he is a frequent guest) knows not to take this seriously. He has talked about this many times on that pod, he really REALLY does not like James Harden. He hates his style, he hates watching it, and he knows that nobody likes playing with him because of his extensive pickup basketball experience. He loves talking about how much he plays pickup basketball. He loves to talk about how "I hate playing with that guy who dribbles too much and takes every shot, I don't even care if you're making them, we all wanna play too."

His entire opinion on this subject is a projection of how he feels when he plays pickup basketball.

 

It would stop all of the fake news... hopefully

 

Media doing what they do best

 

unfortunately, fake news never stops

 

A lot of it is these LBJ nut huggers. The LA crowd sees their shot and we will sink them. They need their next target and they want Butler too. Goodwill is a lying dirty sack of **** wanting Harden hurt. Rest just hate Houston. F’em all.

 

click bait...and reporting things as facts (100%, my sources, blah blah)

 

A **** sucker

 

Chris Paul already made a public denial via the comments section on Bleacher Report’s Instagram page.

 

All he said was "that's news to me" which, sure, you can take it was a denial but it's not a full blown "I'm on TV and I will tell you that all of these reported stories aren't true and I'm not going anywhere" denial wouldn't you agree?

 

Skip Bayless on the alleged CP3 Harden feud: "There was the one report yesterday that it got to the point where Chris Paul was making fun of James' man boobs to the point that he broke down in tears and had to leave a couple of practices"

Ladies and gentlemen, this is the "leader" of the Rockets. Somebody who cries about having someone make fun of his man boobs. Lol Harden, this is pretty sad.

 

I don’t agree. In today’s society, issuing a denial via social media is on par with doing so via TV or print. In fact, it’s probably more common, as many people use social media to find and disseminate news.

The national sports media is simply choosing to ignore his and Morey’s denial.

 

lol i'm not here to change your mind. i'm here to clarify the post you quoted/responded to make sure you understood what i was really wanting out of Chris Paul.

 

what's pretty sad is that a single person believes this is true

 

When the trade was made back in 2017, Russillo said he was a Chris Paul fan but all of his "coverage" of the Rockets with Paul has always been negative in some way. I think he even admittedly said he just doesn't like the way Harden's style of play looks.

 

Fair enough.

 

You gotta be a real cretin to believe this

 

When there's smoke, there's fire.

 

my view as well. I have no urge to see the rockets forced to entertain clown garbage because they suck at their job and don't do their homework well enough. they have way more important things to worry about.

 

Or just, y'know, another sheep that believes everything that gets put out there without doing any research.
