    I hope CP3 makes Harden understand he only has one chance to leave a legacy

    I think Harden is starting to slow **** down. He probably sees everyone getting married and have kids as he approaches 30. He apparently broke up with khloe because the relationship "did nothing for me(him)"

    I can't wait to see cp3 livid when harden tries to blame someone for his own mistakes. Now we need that angry chef Ramsay or bar rescue Taffer to go check Morey's ****** smug behaviours. Finally some ****ing accountability in Houston besides ME. Tired of carrying this city by myself. I cant be the only passionate professional checking everybody.

    I'm genuinely afraid of this. Morey has constructed a team of players that Harden can't really talk back too without push back. We won't be getting any "pass dat, pass dat ****." videos next season, that's for sure.

    CP3 will stand up to Harden. Ariza will stand up to Harden. Nene will stand up to Harden. Tucker will stand up

    Rhyno is a p***y so Harden got him. Capela is still young so Harden got him.

    Still very positive Compared to last year - Where Harden could just shout at scurbby Dekker or Harrell or Bev. He had complete ownership.

    Love it, it's about time the Rockets got some hard nosed players in here. Hopefully Harden responds accordingly.

    This really struck me:

    How amazing is it that this guy ended up being his underperforming backup on the Clippers.

    Paul is a fighter. And we need a team of fighters this season.

    Nope. Just reminiscing. I thought he was a strong leader for our team.

    The Clippers lost their lead against the Portland Trail Blazers in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter and Chris Paul lost his mind as well.

    Paul took a near game-winning shot that just rimmed out but his teammate DeAndre Jordan grabbed the rebound. Unfortunately, Jordan thought that the shot-clock buzzer signaled the end of the game and just stood there instead of shooting.

    I hope CP3 turns Capela into Deandre Jordan, but with a free throw shot.

    I get how everyone thinks CP3 will push Harden this year. He's a hard ass, no nonsense player in the way MJ23 was.

    But guys, Harden had one of the greatest seasons ever last year. His defense was actually good, instead of pathetic or average. CP3 won't push him, it's hard to think James can play better than he did.

    Y'all just gotta stop with that bs. Hardens all around stats should drop. CP stats should actually rise. We will be a smoother team, with less lulls. I doubt we score better or get better on D. But, we should have no dead spurts with 2 greats with the ball always in their hands.

    He didn't miss a free throw. Paul missed a shot, Deandre got the rebound with time still on the clock and he just stood there like the game was over. Poor awareness.

    Paul was telling him to go back up with the ball to win the game. Instead Deandre just held the ball and let the clock expire.

    Everyone on the court knew what was going on except Deandre.
