    I am less worried about him slacking off with a fat contract now. He’s just a 25yo nerd like any of us, he’ll give that money back to his family.

    I’m ready to let go of Harden after that piece. I could get behind someone who seems humble and ready. James will do James... doing James hasn’t gotten him to a championship... switching teams ain’t gonna get him there either. He’s gotta change his mindset. Dwight got one but barely played and he was out.

    He's been working with KD and Klay ... not bad. I love seeing young dudes that haven't been corrupted by the system yet. lol. I'm already a big fan of C-Wood and Jae'Sean. Here's to hoping he stays humble and stays a Rocket.... and that Tilman sells the team.

    BTW, am I just imagining things or is that dude at 5:37 in the video Kenneth Faried? He shows up a few times in that scrimmage later in the video, too.

    I love C. Wood so far but there is a reason this guy kept bouncing around the league (reportedly lack of long term effort).

    I'm all aboard the C. Wood all-star bandwagon but even I would be cautious until he plays consistently like he did in the pre-season during regular season.

    I can’t wait to see what this hungry youngster picks up when he works with Hakeem. And working with the best training staff and doctors in the league.

    Not worried about his offense, would like to see him put in more effort at defensive end. I would love to see him, Wall, Ben, PJ and EG on the court together finishing games. That defense could potentially be lock down!

    Too bad he's going to leave once his contract is up

    Slow down. He hasn’t even played game 1 of a 3 year contract. This isn’t exactly a farewell tour.

    Why don't you leave instead?

    Players talk. You think after any player can see what is going on with Harden is going to stick around?! Nope they gone. Three years to build his craft and he's out.

    I honestly am beginning to think it's because he wants to sell Adidas Shoes in China since the Houston Rockets are banned in China.

    Adidas is pressuring Harden to sell shoes.

    Plus Mike Danton, Daryl Morey being gone is what makes him feel like a outcast.

    Try dudestream.com. I had luck with it in the preseason, before LP started working for me. Hopefully, you guys will get lucky.

    I agree with you, but like I said in another thread, what he did in the pre-season was what he was doing towards the end of the regular season last year, so I'm hopeful.

    Wood just got paid, he can learn out of pocket...
