I'm sick of his ****. Start watching games of other teams and maybe you can see what its like to have a real star lead the team.

yea but if you go back to last year stats, Harden led the league in win shares... and when you do that... history states you have a 90% chance of winning the mvp stephanie is playing well this year has nothing to do with Harden being robbed last year... some nba fans are clueless
Normally I'd be with you, but I disagree. Watching the second quarter against the Celtics, once Harden checks back in the game, everything changed for the worse. We started out really well, with the ball moving, guys hustling, and (shockingly) the ball was going in since ball movement and hustle leads to better shots. But then in the middle of the second quarter, Harden checked in and it all went to hell. Really, if he was trying to throw the game, he wouldn't have done anything differently. The offense got stagnant with James walking the ball up the court and doing nothing until the shot clock ticked down. Once he did pass the ball off he would just chill somewhere in between halfcourt and the top of the 3 point line and do nothing. On defense, he could not possibly have cared any less. He never really guarded anyone and even his fake hustle was worse than usual. I wish it weren't the case, but I honestly think McHale is gone because Harden - whether on his own or acting on behalf of others on the team - wanted him gone. And I love me some James. I have a Rockets room in my house that is like 50% Harden crap. So I don't like saying this. But, it's how I saw it.
he was robbed dude, the players who play againist him said he was the most valuable lol... the media loves curry too much thats why he won, notice stephanie didnt win finals mvp, the series changed when iggy became a starter... curry doesnt carry a team.. His limited physical limitations would make it almost impossible
dude mchale is not even a decent coach.. im glad he's gone, now hopefully we make the right hire and get away from moreyball and play up to our potential, i wanna see some offensive sets
Yeah I hope we get a better coach too. I just don't like to see players - especially ones I like so much - sabotage their own team. If we get a better coach and become a better team then I guess all's well that ends well. But I think this puts much more pressure on the players, especially Harden, to take their games up several notches.
That's the real question. I imagine that at least half of the guys on the team take their cues from Harden and Howard, our two highest-paid, most decorated players. I strongly suspect something happened during pre-season between McHale and Harden that caused a rift to form. Once your main guy checks out, the ripples spread out across the entire team. I wish I didn't have to say that about our superstar, but until we get a coach that can properly motivate him to play to his potential every night, we're going to have problems. Hopefully JB will be that guy.
im telling you clutchfans dont support their players like most nba teams too... nobody over in new orleans is talking about trading anthony davis curry would be squat here under mchale... these rockets fans have a hard time understanding that, he might be a better version of cj mccollom if that.. because the way the warriors use him is so different than we would use him
What does this matter? James played like an MVP last season and rightfully so deserved to be in the conversation. This season, not so much, but I am not sure how this idiotic tweet has any relevance.
Isn't it on Lawson? Two coaches bite the dust in two seasons, Nuggets are playing hard and overachieving without him, Rockets give zero effort since he came, and he's the one who called the players-only meeting.
