you do realize harden was answering house's situation being brought up right. This harden just out of his own free will just went up to the media and spilled out how important house stance is pretty laughable and your comprehension is completely off. this is all based on your logic of harden specifically cited said player so he must be important
When House does come back for the playoffs who is he take time away from? He'll be an injury reserve at best.
Man. It’s hard to watch these clips and not see our starting SF. Are you guys absolutely sure you like Eric Gordon starting? House is so intelligent. His passing, his defense. We might have found a long term SF for CP3 and James, and we basically just said nah. Super bummed we didn’t get to find out either way.
I don't know about starting, but it's hard to imagine a team paying 3 players almost $100m next season can't use this guy on the roster for $2-3m per season.
Why is this random quote from a random interview getting so much play. Do you notice he has never mentioned House when he says we need to get the whole team healthy and in a rhythm going into the playoffs. He has mentioned Shumpert and not House of he actually thought House was a key piece he would be on the roster.
If we don’t manage to win it all I very much look forward to some posters claiming House was the difference. It’s inevitable
Last I checked the GM is Morey and not Harden. Do you watch the Lakers? Because they have shown having your superstar make the personnel decisions is a smart idea. P.S. Harden thinks the Rox need House so badly he has applied 0 pressure to the Rox office otherwise he would have been a Rocket by now. There's a thing called "lip service" look it up.
He is saying Harden drops these quotes about other players all the time, he is a positive guy and qould rather compliment others in the media rather then tear them down. Doesn't mean you have to take everything he says literally like he will quit the team and ask for a trade if Danuel freaking House is not resigned. He said he needed Melo and he also said the same thing about Shump. So dont act like Harden is fixated about House wtf.
Thank you for being a voice of sanity in this insane thread lol. At least when DD is hyping a guy up he is either already an NBA player or was balling overseas and had the P word. This dude got cut from his 2 previous teams, is already 26 and playing like a scrub in the GLeague but somehow he is the Rox's 3rd best player after Cp3.
House is not on the roster, why would he mention him now? He mentioned him before, and it was not just one random interview. Is he mentioning Jimmy Butler for next season?
I watch every Lakers game as well. I am based in LA. I don't believe a player should be making personnel decisions on his own, read my other post about Harden being a player and not GM.
Ok so stop saying House is a fit because Harden mentioned him in a quote then. If you dont believe a player should make personnel decisions why is Harden's quote being used to bring House back then?
When House was here, he played in front of Ennis and Clark. We didn't have Rivers and Faried. I think if we have him in the playoffs, Clark will probably go back to the doghouse. Rivers is a PG whose game does not overlap with House. Faried and House will share the minutes depending on match up. It also depends on whether Faried can play alongside with Capela so that they can slide Tucker to the 3. But you are right. House will be an injury insurance. And you know how important that is with the Rockets.
It was one random interview. if he wanted House so bad he would still mention him. i have no idea what Butler or next year have to do with this conversation.
and we had the best record last year... how'd that work out...? oh that's right... injuries and no depth... ...smh....
