    Harden does everything Leborn does with less size and way more scoring/shooting.

    Of course Lebron wants to handle the ball as much as he can. That is his team. Their talents overlap more than complement each other's game.

    Now Durant and WB still like Harden.

    The FA angle also makes alot of sense.

    Not really surprising. The players also voted more for Curry for the all stars than they did Harden, despite his crazy scoring streak.

    Let me translate it to you.

    Lebron: NIKE, Giannis: Nike
    1st: Kevin Durant (Nike)
    2nd: Stephen Curry (UA)
    3rd: Kyrie Irving (Nike)
    4th: Joel Embiid (UA)
    5th: Kawhi Leonard (Nike)
    6th: Paul George (Nike)
    7th: James Harden (Adidas)
    8th: Kemba Walker (Nike)

    You see the pattern of LeGM self-thought businessman? Adidas is biggest Nike rival since beggining, they don't care bout UA. No one was touching Adidas guy til the end. Rose got ultra few votes from players too.

    If you get offended by this ‘selection’, you are an idiot.

    Just look at the picks, LeBron is clearly targeting the guys will be available st FA and could be a teammate and for Giannis, other than Curry, he is picking the guys that played or playing in the East.

    I was reading comments on Twitter where people state he doesn’t care about this. I totally disagree and I believe he will add this as fuel, I really do.

    James Harden throwing up almost 40 foot 3s instead of getting easy layups got me so angry in the last All Star Game.
    James looked so lazy without even using his legs on his 3s, he easily could've gotten easy layup after layup by his crossover or eurostep in the paint. He chucked deep 3s on one end while LeBron kept getting easy layups on the other end, and laughing at James Harden. You are a choker laugh. Honestly LeBron has more choking history, in season and playoffs. Harden is clutch in the regular season especially.
    I felt so angry and turned off the TV. I hate LeBron so much since LeBron away a MVP against Tracy McGrady at Houston.

    1st: Kevin Durant (Team LeBron) - No Brainer
    2nd: Stephen Curry (Team Giannis) - Understandable
    3rd: Kyrie Irving (Team LeBron) - Over Harden? Nah
    4th: Joel Embiid (Team Giannis) - Second best big in the East
    5th: Kawhi Leonard (Team LeBron) - Perennial MVP Forward
    6th: Paul George (Team Giannis) - Defensive Player of the Year, Forward
    7th: James Harden (Team LeBron) - Should have gone 2nd or 3rd
    8th: Kemba Walker (Team Giannis) - There are better players available

    Yea it's called tampering and his nickname should be LeTampering. Also he's no where being the GOAT because GOATS don't need to recruit star players to win. In fact based on perception, he's probably top 3 in most overrated all time.

    Who cares?
    LeBron is picking his friends and everyone is going to be free agent next year.
    I'm sure LeBron doesn't want Harden to take the ball away from him.

    This isn't something I care about.

    But random aside... is the whole picking teams thing interesting to y'all?

    I don't find it interesting. Don't get me wrong, I was not interested in the nearly 200 point games either, so understand a fix was needed...

    But I don't feel much "attachment" to either team. Frankly, I can't remember who is on either team. Have to google it.

    Giannis was never picking him because of the MVP race while LeBron picked his Nike buddies & FA targets. Stupid thing to get offended about since I doubt Harden even cares because he never tries anyway lol.

    Don't think y'all have noticed but Harden isn't really buddy buddy with the entire league like everyone else & only has a few select friends among the Superstar players. CP3 is kind of the same lol, same with Westbrook who was the only player that genuinely got disrespected last night.
