Or maybe you were fishing for some homer-glasses rah-rahing and instead are now annoyed that for some of us loving a team doesn't mean we lose objectivity? Harden choosing to literally not play defense on multiple possessions in a professional basketball game is shameful.
Lol our talent level was about the same last year why should you play the "oh pls we are so bad and have some compassion" card? Fck this team and its non leader at least for this season Screw the coaching, screw management and ownership while we are it. Evaluate this hot mess all you want in the offseason.
Harden needs to do more, he needs to play with more fire. That said, the level of talent around him is atrocius, there's not a single player who can pass, creat something for himself or for another player, no one can score... But yeah, he needs to do more, i want to see him play harder.
Yeah true, lol! He just can't be taken serious in any way at this point and I've grown to hate his gimmick beard as well.
I feel sorry for you delusional koolaid drinking homers that put up with anything the rockets do just because you're a fan. Im sure Les appreciates your blind ignorance. Keep buying those overpriced tickets!!!!
Hah he's not even my favorite player but if reducing anyone who disagrees with you down to a "player only fan" floats your boat have at it.
Haven't been to a game this season. Not saying I'm happy with the season's results or even past season results. I'm saying the fact that even Rockets fans buy into media concocted narratives based on tmz tumors and cherry picked vines is sad.
Not sure why you feel sorry for him. He came in completely out of shape and not caring. It's not even clear that he's lost the weight
In what way am I begging people to have compassion? I've simply stated that I feel the brunt of the blame for this season is on coaching and role player regression. We overachieved last year. Y'all love to reduce arguments down to black/white. Either everything is Harden's fault and he sucks and therefore should be hated and anyone who disagrees must think the exact opposite. There's a pretty huge gap in the middle there where it's completely reasonable for a person to be critical of an entire team's play without believing that Harden isn't one of the main reasons the team sucks.
GSW fans will invade our gym...with brooms... This is NOT how basketball is supposed to be played. Gutless, heartless, selfish cowards that wear our city's name on their chest. James Harden makes me sick...and his carelessness and lack of urgency deserves all of the negative press he gets. He was unfortunately paired up with a mental midget who is now just liability on the court. I really hope that Les fires Morey, and the entire coaching staff. Then trades every damn player. I have also now come to the conclusion that this Rocket team as constructed will NEVER win a title with James Harden as the team's best player. Dwight Howard when he was the focal point of an offense was NEVER this unreliable in the postseason. Sadly now his game is well past him...as his athletic talent is noticeably gone and fundamental skills were never existent.
In a thread of dumb takes this is one of the worst. I guess some people just make random ass statements despite having no facts on what they're talking about. There's tons of grea role players on the receiving end of passes from great players in clutch time in serious playoff moments. Teammates of Jordan and Kobe are some of the guys that come to mind immediately.
