    Look y'all want to feel betrayed by the **** hands Golden Nugget dealt you go ahead.

    Takes some time to process what you had and what you lost...

    .... because Kyrie and Durant ain't going to be playing sideshow. He should of known that he was #1 in Houston, now he is 1A, 1B and 1C. No longer with Rockets, no longer care. 0 time watched the Nets.

    No he didn't quit. Harden quit in the middle of the season...before the season started acting up.

    What did Watt do to get himself traded or off the team during the season?

    I'll wait.

    deshaun Watson choked a 24-0 lead in the playoffs with dhopkins and as a starter he is barely over .500 for his career. Their is a reason madden won’t give Watson a 90 overall

    why are we as houston fans so forgiving when it comes to certain athletes in Houston. I’m glad harden is gone from Houston. He was never respected by even his own fanbase like even a Damian lillard in Portland or how westbrick was in okc

    What are you talking about?
    He asked to be gone! He asked for his freedom because he no confidence in Cal & Easterby! He gave up on Houston. He’s outta here.

    I never blamed Harden for wanting out, though one can't help but wonder what we could have done here with a committed Harden if we could stay at least kind of healthy...

    The Watson comparison is MUCH closer to the Watt one seeing as the Texans want to keep Watson like the Rockets wanted to keep Harden...and maybe Watson acts out like Harden did to force the issue, we'll see...

    The Watt comparison is bad because the Texans were ready to move on from Watt and Watt was a complete professional throughout the entire season.

    The Texans wanted him gone too, tried to trade him. The feeling was and has been mutual between both sides, that's one of the main differences.

    Now, when did Watt miss practice, blatantly ignore Covid protocol, and quit on his team midseason? Any examples of that?

    "...that's not who I am."

    I wish people would stop using this pointless throwaway cliche. James, that was you. That is who you are.

    Great, great player, and the ultimate what if for the Rockets, but an immature diva through and through.

    LMAO, all he did was quit and move on to another company. There is nothing in the contract that says he cant ask for a trade bro. Just like there is nothing in the contract that says no to trading him. Brooooooo it's just BUSINESS. :D :D

    Nothing personal DD, the team didnt fit with the direction he needed to go. :rolleyes: :rolleyes:



    Im finding the hypocrisy very hilarious DD, Im sorry.

    Clutchfans to PJ: Sorry PJ, its just business.

    Harden to the Rockets: Sorry, it's just business.
