I have grown to HATE JAMES FRAUDEN

I do HATE JAMES HARDEN!

As a Rockets fan for DECADES, I have watched many subpar teams struggle and underproduce - typically due to lack of talented players or missing pieces or injuries...

but James Harden is another matter entirely - he simply DGAF!

He got his millions, now he is simply going through the motions...

His noncaring nature is evident from his meandering pace at bringing the ball up..
His wasting of the shot clock as he dribbles the ball while only looking at the defender in front of him...
Throwing the ball to teammates with 2 or 3 seconds left on the clock (after he just dribbled away 20 seconds not even trying to setup a play..)
His refusal to play even minimal defense with ANY consistency...

and I'm so SICK of people saying "what about this player.. or that player... they are sucking..." so what! Harden is the 'cornerstone' with the max contract and 200M in endorsements... and HE'S NOT EVEN TRYING!

I HATE THIS DUDE SO MUCH FOR BEING SUCH SLIME! He's nothing but another Royce White - with a longer endgame and bigger payout!

I'm actually flying to Dallas (from Vegas) to go to the game on Friday - plans made before this debacle of a season began - and I already feel its money that has been wasted!

Great job, James - you conned me outta $119.99 for NBA league Pass, another couple hundred in airfare... and tickets and hotel... thinking I was going to watch my team have a memorable season...

It's memorable alright... I'll never forget what a worthless, self centered, egotistical piece of excrement you are!

I hope harden ends up living under a bridge with Royce white... won't happen though... James has secured his millions.... James got his - screw the rest of us!

 

If Morey and Les are scared to discipline Haren they should ask his mom to.

 

Sorry, can't go for that one. "Haters" there may be, but you don't just quit playing whenever you think a foul should have been called.

Harden quits, yes. While he spends so much time glancing toward the refs, the other team is off and running. This was a far more egregious example, sure to make the latest "Shaqtin a Fool".

Just embarrassing.

If Harden is actually sick, as someone posited in another thread, then he should have rested a few games. Because the rest of us are getting a little woozy, too, just watching Harden and the entire team not give twenty three percent of a f***.

Each game the Toyota Center gets a little emptier. Barring some miracle wakeup call (firing the coach didn't do it), this will be the first year that I have no intention of buying a ticket to see the team play.

 

I may hate him but he's still the most talented, most durable, and most exciting player we've had since Hakeem.

We have to hope he grows up ASAP.

 

change that "we" to "i" then ok. otherwise you could not be more wrong. or we have different definitions on what is "talented" or "exciting"...

 

Tell me your Rockets star player that's been as durable as Harden since Hakeem? Who was even close to taking a team to the WCFs and being a close MVP.

 

durable was the point i argued. and yet you pick it out. hehe.

who cares about whether or not someone is "durable" if his heart isnt in the game and his mind isnt invested in his team.

 

*wasn't*

 

What's the difference between being durable but have the same results as somebody in a suit?

 

He is durable I give you that.

He took us during the regular season, but in the playoffs others were better, Dwight had better games.

 

Agreed on all counts

Where is your...

Spoiler

 

It's myth from ppl like you that want to make it seem like Harden had a bad playoffs performance last year. He had 3 bad games out of 17, the other 14 were played at an extremely high level.

Harden is not right so far this season but you guys are so quick to turn on the best player we've had since dream and it's not debatable. He gave his all to the team last year and it was the most exciting team we had in close to 20 years. But your so quick to drill the guy for a poor start that is much bigger than just him.

He's won us every game with his play besides the NYC game that was a team effort. The fact that he has to avg 40 ppg just for us to have a chance is not a good look on the supporting cast.

 

My problem w/ Harden is that it just seems like he doesn't care. He has the tools to be the best player in the world, but his lackadaisical play frustrates the hell out of me.

 

That play wasn't quitting. A foul there would have been stupid.

 

I am not turning on him and I am not the Gm of this WC team.

I am just disappointed in his leadership abilities and he was on the way to become another Durant (although Durant's wingspan and explosiveness cannot be copied)

but yeah he will always stay the Best Sixth Man turned superstar and be on my mind but what this team needs that is a whole other issue.

I am being honest and I cannot pretend I am his homeboy no matter how bad his effort level on D is and his ballhogging is

no, he doesnt. and that's a problem or the problem...

 

How doesn't he? We've seen him absolutely take over before, the difference is now he's playing with a lower I.Q. than ever.
