So fire the coach and trade James!. No more iso ball. Problem solved. Nevermind the team had been irrelevant for nearly 20 years until Harden got here and probably would have won a chip had CP3 not gone down. People whining about James sound stupid when you consider that guys like Aaron Brooks, Kevin Martin and Chuck Hayes were considered the headliners with this franchise. Now we're sporting a Hall of Fame backcourt with another year's window at a title. Harden is FAR from perfect but damn It's amazing the negativity the guy gets from his own city.
Hot takes from Lance Innes. CP was never a superstar. This dude clearly has an issue with the rockets.
Yep. It's bad enough that other teams' fans hate him. But that extends to many Rockets' fans, too. Hell, if not for CP3's hamstring, we might be champs...and STILL the hatred would be grotesque.
Why is he a conservative? And what does it matter if he was? Lance was partying with Lima, plays fantasy with Morey and is good friends with Bun B. Actually, the more I think about it, he actually seems way cooler than Harden. At least he's relatable. Harden seems weird.
Yes but Harden can lead the Rockets to the second best team in the NBA and almost the championships. Seems to me as a basketball fan, I probably should like Harden just a bit more short of him being a drug lord who likes to kick babies in his spare time.
Lance has a story about Harden turning his buddies kid down for a picture one time. I’d imagine that could be what he’s referring to.
On the real, I have some serious dirt on Zierlein. Stuff he doesn’t want out there, I guarantee you. I’m not gonna share it here and now. But oh man...If you only knew. Heads would explode. Let’s just say dude has some fascinating...”interests”.
Lance is most certainly not a cool guy. My opinion on Lance began over a decade ago when I was in high school. I commented on an article he posted in the chronicle and he went absolutely ape ****. He tracked down my high school email account and berated me with emails. He was lookin up stuff about me online and basically trying to harass me. I wish I still had the email exchange between the 2 of us. I was like dude, I’m 16 and your a ****ing adult, grow the **** up and get a life. He didn’t take kindly to that I’ve viewed him as a grade a douchebag since then On top of that, as I mentioned earlier in the thread, the dude watches ZERO basketball
It's no secret that James Harden is a douchebag off the court. Old news. Example: I was on my smartphone while hanging out in the lobby of a hotel when Harden walked by and said, "Man, I hate when *****s try to take pictures of me." LOL. I was literally on Facebook and the kid assumed my world revolved around him. Love him as player, but he's got some growing up to do.
Most definitely true - just look at what winning has done for the ALAstros. This I do not recall. If you are referring to the 86 Finals against the Celtics, then no - I do not remember Hakeem getting blamed for the loss. Hakeem ALWAYS gave it his all on the court - especially during the playoffs - and everyone respected him for that especially the press. That's what made his winning that first championship all the more special. It was a long time coming and I'll never forget the look on his face when that final buzzer rang. We never saw a "Game 6" performance from him as a Rocket. From what I hear, the person you are most referring to is Josh Innes.
