If Harden had so much power (and Morey to an extent) why couldn't they have forced Tilman to go over the luxury? Exactly what Giannis was able to do with the Bucks. Why wait till this offseason before just jumping the ship? Call out Tilman for his bullsht tax repeater crap the last two seasons especially after not resigning Ariza to a ONE YEAR CONTRACT and then CONSTANTLY GIVING AWAY PICKS to get below the cap. CALL HIM OUT AND FORCE HIM TO SPEND.
And Damian Lillard will continue to not win rings and not be as good as Harden. And we arent even trading him to the Nets. Philly was also in his planned destinations.
This thread felt like a brunch of sour Trump supporters can't face the fact of losing and defeated while they clearly made their own choice to support a wrong candidate to take them to the promise land. LOL
Or we arent pissy, weak willed people that switch up as soon as dude says he wants to leave after 8 years. Miss me with this garbage. You can choose to be like this about him leaving, I will not.
By all means, stand by your man, ignore everything he's done to sabotage the franchise if you wish. You'll have to understand that not everyone is going to go that route however.
To state the obvious, Harden has the right to decide where he wants to play or to ask his team to seek out trade deals that would be mutually beneficial. He's put in a lot of time here, he's accomplished some great things, he's done a lot to promote the Rockets and Houston. It's been a good run. If he wants to look to a situation that gives him a better shot at playing on a championship-level team, more power to him.
i hope the next rockets franchise player can sabotage the franchise to 2 WCF appearances and consistent 50 win seasons. come on caris levert!
So have you and the others ever asked this burning question to self : why took me 8 years to realize that he isn't the guy that will bring us the championship? Or if he choose to stay, you will still believe he is the guy that will take you to the promise land? Perhaps the problem isn't really on him, just take a deep breath and check the mirror.
Okay, so if reports are true then everyone including Morey left because Tilman openly supports Trump. No one wants to play for an owner who loves Trump like his brother. https://foxsportsradio.iheart.com/c...rump-leading-to-revolt-among-rockets-players/ Can Silver force Tilman to sell the team please? No free agent wants to play under Trump's twin.
Im done talking to you, i know what kind of person you are and its not the reasonable kind. Ignored, goodbye.
You are absolutely a perfect Texan fan who embraced Bob for all these years. Did you cry when he was fired that we may not win another AFC South Division Champ in the near future?
Lol, Dame doesn’t even care if he doesn’t win a championship. He’s nowhere close to Harden’s level, so there’s no legacy talk with him. Nobody talks about him as an all-time great who needs a championship for validation. Dame put up 18 ppg in a 1st round sweep to the freaking Pelicans and nobody cared. He could retire ringless just putting up numbers in Portland, and that’s more than good enough for him and fans of the NBA.
LOL, what? This is such an idiotic thing to say. And you have the nerve to compare people to Trump supporters when you make takes this bad. I would say that he's loyal for saying with us and be happy. But im not gonna be mad that he wants to win a ring. Especially after our franchise WENT DOWN THE TOILET WITH THIS OWNER. The problem is people like you who have zero basketball knowledge wants to talk about things you dont know anything about. The ignorance. I dont cape for Harden. Ive criticized him before. But he's brought us a lot of success and is the second best player in Rockets history no matter what you think.
Well see, depends on how he wins it. You may very well be right. But im not mad at him for wanting to do so. But to be fair, Harden is going to the team that just beat him nor are the Nets as good as GS.
the fact that you think an nfl division title is the same as an nba conference finals appearance shows that you may be out of your depth.
I see people throwing lillard/giannis as examples. the funny thing is their teams actually went all in for them. Regardless of its good enough or not that's what their owners and FO did. Harden didn't get that luxury
