[WOJ] Harden and Howard hate each other.

Except we don't have 2 stars. Dwight is a mediocre center at this point, look at the numbers.

 

The pass the media is giving JBB is really astounding to me.

 

Regardless of them hating each other JB was horrible. Just because you eye ONE thing as being a problem does not mean another was not a problem either. JB is bad. I love the Rockets but I can't see myself as a fan with JB as coach and I've never said that about this team in a serious manner before. I've been a fan since I was a kid about 22 years now but I cant do it. I'll just stop watching and going to the games all together.

 

Good point.

 

I think people like Phil Jackson and Gregg Popovich can and know how to push the right buttons to bring successful performances out of new additions and predict who will be leaders and how players will get along. I agree that most people don't know how to manage or predict interpersonal relationships, but the most successful leaders can.

 

How many times does it need to be reported?

ESPN, NBA.com, Yahoo, CBS, every outlet out there has reported this.

...but but but it's not true. It's not true. Let's keep sticking our heads in the sand! Just the big, bad media hating on Houston per usual!



And yeah, JB don't get a pass either. Harden & Howard may have had their issues but that has nothing to do with him playing Brewer & Terry major minutes or having ****ty, inconsistent rotations.

 

We need legit all-stars playing besides harden.. not borderline stars. Legit all-star players. Otherwise he is just wasting his career here in Houston. Don't expect Morey to build a functional team.

 

Team Dwight, Team Beard, who cares.

If both players allowed personal feeling affect their performance on court this much, then as far as I'm concerned, they're both divas and the hell with both of them.

 

but they wear pink on wednesdays! how can they hate each other?

 

I'm on Team Adelman. You must be an Ariza fan. AOF alert.

 

Playing Brewer had nothing to do with two stars hating each other. That was just bad coaching.

 

So if JBB had an impossible job why the hell did they get rid of McHale LOL.

 

The coaching was flat out atrocious this season and I'm being as objective as I can be. The only continuity JBB had in his lineups was a heavy dose of Cory Brewer no matter how horrible he played.

 

Just picked this one out of many, but:

Never thought I'd see the day that Adrian "It ain't true until WOJ reports it" Wojnarowski was flamed on this board.

 

Denial is a powerful thing.

 

I'm right there with you....

One was a problem on offense and the other a problem on defense... Actually both were a problem on both ends of the court...

Let one ride into the sunset and try to get some type of Herschel Walker deal for the other.

Start fresh with a NEW Coach, NEW System and NEW players with a better attitude.

T_Man

 

Another shameless Ariza and Brewer not capable of offense post.

 

I don't believe they hate each other but I do believe they hate playing together. People who hate each other don't get along the way I've personally seen them interact.

 

My opinion is that both are non alpha male types who will see the and hate but won't go beyond that.

 

No Kidding!

Regardless of how H&H feel about each other, this is why a head coach is supposed to come in and make the different ego's work together for one ultimate goal.

How is it that Team USA's coaching staff can get 12 NBA superstars to buy in to their ultimate goal? To a point where KOBE of all people refuses to take shots and decides to just play lock down defense on the oppositions best offensive player.

This is where McHale, for all his lack of X's and O's, was successful - he was able to keep H&H's egos in check and to play hard for the team and for each other.
