There will always be excuses. If any team would have beaten the Bulls in 1992-93 they would have said Jordan was getting tired of playing the game. If anyone would have beaten them in 97-98 they would have said Jordan was too old. Anytime a team of the decade loses in the playoffs there is always an excuse. Just like when the Cavs won (they said only because Green was suspended). But guess what? The Cavs still won and so will the Rockets

I for one am sick to death of seeing **** NBA defenders cry and complain about doing the same **** defending that results in fouls. You can’t pull on him around screens and you can’t hack at the ball on his drives....or else? You hit his arm and he shoots. Foul, 100% of the time and it’s not even called every time. AND they’ve made another Harden rule amendment about it because he’s able to put defenders in the situation of foul or let me score. It’s called being great.

2 things jump out at me as side notes to this conversation, 1 have you ever noticed how physical teams are allowed to be with our Rockets? If you wanna close your eyes, nose up, arms crossed, stomping feet about it like it’s not a 2 way street...I have only the biggest eye-roll whatever for you. Whatever. Teams are right up on the line of CONSTANTLY fouling James and still complain when they do the same dumb **** that busts everyone. But that’s the beauty of Harden’s greatness. Play off and he roasts you from 3. Play up and you play with fire/fouls. Let him go and he’ll bury you with layups. Help defense he scorches with assists. Literally the only way to guard him is hands up, move your feet and hope he misses.

2 the rockets defenders are deft at NOT being drawn into contact, probably because they have to guard harden a lot in practice. They don’t grab on screens, they don’t hack on drives, they don’t even really attempt charges, they don’t get caught with hands in cookie jars. Not with any consistency. I wouldn’t call them a great defense but they are an effective one through hustle and smarts.

Your not going to convince that Draymond is an allstar level player.

That doesn’t mean I don’t think he’s good.

Ya he would be good on Houston, Portland, Washington.

But he’s not making the allstar team on any of those teams because he would be the 3rd option and as the 1st option the team wouldn’t be any good.

And him in Memphis? What he would be awful there. How’s he going to make the allstar team in Memphis and make them even a playoff team?

Green has become the most overrated good player in the nba.

Ppl have this idea that without him golden state can’t win and that’s a joke they have KD and Steph as long as they have them they are fine.

The numbers point this out. Curry is the guy on that team. When he doesn’t play they suffer and look like a 3-4 seed.

Without green They still win 60+ games assuming everyone else is healthy.

Player a) 10/6/6 1st team all nba defense selection.

Player b) 11/7/7 1st team all nba defensive selection.

Player A) is pat bev last year

Player B) draymond Green This year.

I don’t see anyone beating the door down making a case for bev to be an allstar.

He’s a nice player with a pretty well rounded skill set and plays tough hard nosed defense.

He’a not a guy that creates offense for himself, his passing numbers are inflated because of the system. Most of his assists come with him being the roll man and throwing to the corners to klay or KD.

I watched Dmo who now plays in China do that 4 years ago on a 56 win team. Cool your a big that can take two dribbles and pass to the corner for a wide open shot.

Your and allstar.

He rebounds 7 a game that’s not terrible but at the same time we dog Ryan Anderson and he avg almost 6 a game playing less minutes.

He’s a great role player and any team with great players in place would want him.

But your not building a team around Green and he is not someone I want to pair up and be my robin to a Batman. If he’s your second best player your not contending.

I know I Sound like a green hater but I’m really not I would love him on houston.

I just don’t think he’s a star like so many think.

He’s a high level role player who happens to play with 2 MVPs and a bottom tear allstar.

So naturally his status has been inflated.

Exactly Max , imagine the kind of careers that LeBron and Durant would have had if they ever consistently had the all-star laden supporting cast that James Harden has this year.

Let's not forget. Durant was on a team with Westbrook and Harden. Harden went on to Houston to build himself a team that has turned out to be now the best team in the league. Durant went on to a Warriors team and that team got worse. Westbrook got 2 other all-stars and got even worse. The proof is in the pudding.

Enter chris paul.

I think it's ridiculous he wasn't ejected - there is no doubt this was an attempted to hurt Harden.

View attachment 234
Steps forward with the right foot to close distance as Harden steps backs and gathers for the shot. Notice you can't see the numbers on BG's back

View attachment 232
Instead of taking a step towards Harden with his left leg or even swinging forward, he cuts it short and begins his jump even before Harden has begun his. Why not take another step and why not face up?

View attachment 235
He jumps. Notice that he doesn't jump very high - a guy who won the dunk contest and look how much horizontal distance he covers - further notice that you can read the numbers a lot easier than in the first image. Who closes out by jumping and turning side ways. Also notice he is barely off the ground - because he is trying to cover horizontal distance.

View attachment 236
Feet together about to landing - looks fairly normal except he is nowhere near contesting the shot - in fact it looks pretty half-hearted. And why is he landing as Harden is still going up!

View attachment 237
You can see his left foot has landed with his right foot about to land inside the 3 point line - you can see the shadow from his show on the floor. Notice his left leg has swung out whereas before he was landing with his feet nearly together.

View attachment 238

Notice the following:
1. He has turned his body and his left heel is pushed to the right to enable that turn
2. His left leg isn't quiet straight and his left foot is on its right edge - he is pushing off his left leg so he can move to his right.
3. His left leg is now extended out further than his right - this happens when you slide to the right, not when you land off of a jump
3. His right foot which was about to touch inside the 3 point line has now landed outside of it.

That last image is undeniable of his intention, Nothing looks natural there - and you can see his full back where in the fist image you could hardly see the "3"

I hope the league looks at this and suspends this clown for the rest of the season. Intentionally trying to hurt someone should result in an indefinite suspension, not just a flagrant 1.

Asterisks are for p*****s. Scoreboard is scoreboard. I don't give a sh*t what screamin' A or any of the media says. If Curry is out then he's not as durable as Harden who takes ten times the punishment. Who's better? The guy on the court, that's who.

Almost everyone universally looks great with a healthy low body fat. You check out photos of some of these so called "Sexiest Men Alive" when they're puffy in the face and they look like regular joe's you'd see any day(still catch females attention, but certainly not model like in appearance). The moment they go 12% or lower body fat, their entire face transforms and they become girls wet dreams. Women can get away with a higher body fat as chubby cheeks can give them a youthful look and men like a bit of meat to grab and slap, but for close up model like photography, low bf% and aesthetic facial angles is always better for females and especially males.

It's my personal goal for the year to get back to a low body fat that i had when i was a teen/early 20s and turning heads. I already lost 60lbs last year and it's begun, but at 18% BF for my small stature and penis size, it gives too much of a soft roundess to my face which combined with the fact that im 34 but look 21 just isn't a good look. Need to drop 5-7% more to get those strong jaw and cheek bone lines to appear more masculine to help make up for being all balls.

Yall should do the same brehs. Celebrate our 3rd Rockets championship by being the best version of yourself and making the ladies legs tremble in your 2005 wide shoulder cut Bobby Sura jersey.
