    A stupid, misleading thread title. And welcome to the real world, ask Michael Cooper or Ron Harper or Derek Fisher if happened to them. There's a reason they're called stars. I'm guessing Ariza understand that as well. A garbage article with a disingenuous thread title.

    This is the dumbest reach I've seen in a while. I'm listening to the podcast right now and there's zero mention of "James" and/or "Harden" during Lowe's Ariza mention.

    So the OP is just making up bullshit to either make Ariza look bad, Harden look bad, Lowe look bad or all three . lol what a fantastical reach. Someone needs to go back to 7th grade English class

    for all we know he could be referring to Kobe as well who was known to be giant C**t to his team mate. Remember when Kobe told Smush Parker he doesn't deserve to speak to him

    So that's why he left LA when Kobe was still on the team. Threeza such a hater even though he still mentions that Kobe is like a mentor.

    "Chris (Paul) and I are the cornerstones of the Rockets. The rest of the guys are role players or pieces that complete our team. We've lost some pieces and added some pieces. I think we'll be fine next season."

    If only James would just sing the doggone Backstreet boys song.

    Tell me, just how many of you are turning down a doubling of your salary that you know you didn't earn to go work somewhere else, even if you know it'll probably suck? Even if you know you're leaving a really good situation?

    Right. I work for family, someone doubles me up I'm outty-5000.

    Harden did actually give him a dirty look -- James didn't even want to ride ride with them in the first place. Who knew there were so many layers of mystery woven into that commercial.

    Ariza had 15 million reasons to leave. And the Rockets had 15 million reasons to let him walk. Not to mention that 0-12 performance in Game 7.

    If I remember correctly, when James and Ariza were broken down at the side of the road they were looking away from each other and not interacting.

    Derp, much like Ariza, I also am a purist. The term is “Audi 5000”. Get it right. Lol.

    Speaking of which, Trevor's teammates stuck a giant wad of cash in Trevor's pocket when it came to that ad. Even if they didn't directly suggest him to the producers, the fact that he was on the same team is what got him that part.

    So he's getting preferential treatment over EG and Capela by making bank for a national TV ad.

    News flash, Trevor: The better players get the better treatment. Just like the CEO eats steak and the maintenance crew eats Mickey D's.

    Trevor hates Harden and Paul so much that he invited them to his wedding and partied with them. No wonder he left.
