Don't try to call foul on tampering here. Chris Paul plays for your club....that dude is doing everything in his power to recruit.
she’s not as bad as most of them give me Rachel over Max Kellerman, Beadle, and all those other clowns ANY DAY
She might be worse. At least I know, without a doubt, Beadle hates the Rockets and I can respect that. Rachel tricks you into thinking she is being objective while taking jabs at Harden and the Rockets. Her commentary on James Harden being MVP, the way she tries to steer the conversation to anyone else, the last couple years has been truly shameful. The traveling debacle of 2018 is also an example. Her 3 minute take on Harden might look like she is appreciating Harden, however she starts the conversation with, "Harden is not for everyone and that's ok." It's not ok.. it's disrespectful.
nah, there’s nothing to respect about Beadle...Rachel can be complimentary or sometimes she’ll throw out some slight shots...still better than nothing but hate while being clueless about what you’re talking about like a lot of these other people her Harden segments are easily more tolerable than most of what you’ll hear about him from the other clowns
Yeah, but Chris hasn't recruited publicly on camera and in interviews like Lebron and Giannis have. Recruitment among players isn't the problem, it's just that doing it in a public place is where tampering comes into play. ( For example, Magic Johnson saying on the Jimmy Kimmel show that he wanted Paul George on the Lakers, which resulted in a fine) But of course the league isn't going to do anything to Lebron for it though.
I respect Beadles love for her team because we can all relate to that.. I'm not down for accepting the journalistic scraps from Rachel just because she is saying a few good things about the Rockets and Harden while taking veiled shots. I have more self respect than that. Harden deserves the same praise as his contemporaries without caveats.. all or noting. There is no fluff piece about Harden without a "but". It's bullsh-t.
Beadle is on national TV being paid to talk about the NBA and is up there with no shame about her obvious biases...absolutely nothing to respect when it comes to her Rachel is better than the majority of the people on all these sports talk shows, that’s just facts
Rachel Nichols takes Indirect Jabs and Shots at the Rockets, She did a Story of Harden Number being retired at a Strip Club, She hates Harden and the Rockets, All of ESPN hates the Rockets, it's like the WCF Rockets vs Lakers when Ralph Sampson hit the Game Winner is Replaying in their heads still. Ever since ESPN Studio moved to Los Angeles and New York the Hate Narrative never stops, Stephen A Smith believed the 1994 Knicks would've beat the Rockets which is a dumb statement, Max also a New York fan, Squashed Stephen stupid take, "No that is not going to happen".
