    to be honest, he do have a point because of what happened in last year's playoffs.... let's just focus on this year and use our actions to shut these people up, words are weak, we could use a championship here

    Not the same team as last season, not even close. I can't believe these guys get paid to spew ignorance.

    In that segment, yes. But when they were discussing LeBron being in the MVP race, he dismissed that and said Harden is the heavy favorite.

    The Spurs?

    Your dads spurs!?!??

    That team is so old and straight garbage with or without Kwai. They suck against playoff teams. Pop is just a great coach so they don’t lose to bad teams at all.

    And okc? Don’t get me started on them. They have a blow out win against GS.

    Good for them.

    But that still doesn’t change that fact that there 2-6 in their last 8 games.

    They’ve had one good stretch all year we’re they won 8 game in a row. Other than that they’ve basically played .500 ball which is what a russ lead team has done now 3x when he’s the unquestioned leader without KD.

    Rockets not favorites over GS? I can buy that. That’s not disrespectful but the Spurs and okc who were literally 9+ games ahead of in the standings and still have 26 games left to play?

    That’s just insane.

    I'm just here to congratulate you on your rather large payment from Donald Trump's attorney.

    You rock Stormy!

    Forgive me, but I'm not going to buy the stock of the Doug Gottlieb. We've seen him charged with credit card fraud and never make it in the NBA. (well he made a summer league team)

    Bobby Brown has made real moves. :cool:

    The beautiful thing is no one knows what is to come.These guys need a narrative. Harden played badly in the final game of last season and until he plays well this year in the playoffs there will be talking heads who are going to run with it because they cannot think of anything new to say, but they need to say something to stay "relevant." At one point LeBron had no championships. At one point Jordan had no championships. At one point Hakeem had no championships.

    In the end it doesn't matter if Stephen A Smith is calling Harden the MVP or if Max Kellerman says that he's not, because it's all conjecture at this point and something for them to talk about. These guys aren't reporting news, they are debating and that's what the national public wants or the networks wouldn't have 30 shows with the same format. The vast majority apparently wants discourse so that they can choose a side to take and ride with.

    What is certain is that Harden is playing at an all time great level right now and it's a blast to watch. I hope he keeps it up. I hope he does it in the playoffs. I think he will keep it up with CP3 there to take some burden away, but who knows? No one, that's who.

    We have a team that is clicking and there hasn't been a game where everyone is healthy that I didn't go into thinking the team could win. If you let these dinguses impact your ability to just sit back and enjoy this well-tuned-engine run, then I think you're doing it wrong.

    Y'all need to stop crying every time someone says anything. We look like a bunch of closed-minded, uptight bozos. This isn't Spurstalk.

    Please give this script to Harden, he is going to rewrite this script and get the scriptwriter fired.
