Harden is certainly not above lying.... and I did not listen to the whole press conference so I do not know what the context was..... however, if he said he initially wanted to go to Philadelphia when he decided he wanted to leave, that is true.... it was later that he decided he preferred Brooklyn and asked to be sent to Brooklyn.
What's your definition of a ball stopper? KD is one of the least ball dominant scorer in the NBA which is why he fits so easily with nearly every star. When KD gets the ball he either scores or passes very quickly. His avg time of possession with the ball is something like 3 or so minutes per game. That's a third less than the most ball dominant players in the league like Harden, Luka, Westbrook, Trae the last 4 years. This season Harden leads the league at 9.4 minutes. As for Harden being a dumbass, it was rhetorical to make the point that Kyries poor choices doesn't excuse ANY of the poor choices made by his teammates. The reports of Harden quitting on the Nets, partying on the west coast trip, being late, frustrations with the offense, KD etc may be all B.S or they may be true or something in between. After listening to his press conference s well as the interviews of his teammates as well as the multitude of reports I'm guessing it isn't pure fabrication. YMMV.
He had already talked to Kevin Durant about wanting out of Houston before Morey had gone to Philadelphia. Big Perk had already put the story out that Harden and Westbrook wanted out and that Harden wanted to team up with Durant and Kyrie in BKLYN.
He definitely wanted Brooklyn as his top choice later on and at the time of the trade. He initially wanted to go to Philadelphia though. I don't have an option to watch the conference now so I don't know the context. Having said that, Harden isn't above lying or saying what will make people happy where he is playing at now.
It's all over this this site man. Harden's press conference with the Nets he thanks the Rockets for getting him to his first choice of Brooklyn. Trusted reporters like Woj and Shams and Kendrick Perkins who has sources with Harden and Westbrook all were saying all along that Brooklyn was his first choice. The timeline laid out by Amick during that season showed that Harden had basically worked this out with Durant before the bubble.
Asian Sensation's girlfriend, sister or mom must be a stripper that Harden tapped. Only plausible reason for the amount of hate energy.
Harden says PHI has best fans in the world. LOL dude is just hitting all of the "new guy traded to intense East Coast city" high notes. This is where I've wanted to be, love the city, best fans in the world, know about winning, not about the money, blah blah blah. Every Yankee intro press conference sounds like this.
Cause you choose to ignore actual factual material and believe whatever you want to. Don’t get upset at me for exposing the truth.
Harden in the press conference stated that his issues with Kyrie's choice was minimal since it was a personal one and because they are very good friends. He did say it did have a big impact on the court since the three of them together were great and winning covers most thing. Which supports you're belief Harden would still be a Nets had KD been healthy and Kyrie playing. I actually think Harden would still be a Nets had simply KD & Harris never been injured regardless of Kyrie. Losing Harris had a huge impact on their spacing and precluded the Nets from playing a 4 out lineup which they did a ton last year. Those lineups were the one Harden thrived in with Green, Harris, Shamet and one rim runner.
Ball stopper is a guy once the ball gets to them he is going to shoot it 70% of the time, I am not saying they will dribble it a lot but the possession usually ends when they get the ball. Maybe ball stopper is too negative when it comes Durant but he is not part of a free flowing offense, either he is shooting or the guy he passes it to is shooting because they are wide open, he is seldom passing the ball as part of a free flowing play or moving off the ball to create for others. Durant has the highest usage rate on the team. What dumbass thing do you think Harden did? Why would you bring Harden into a discussion with the dumbass stuff Kyrie is doing anyway, even he did all of that stuff he was still available to the team.
Yeah… that’s exactly it dipshit. Don’t hate me. Hate the player for being a bum ass quitting loser wherever he goes. All these “hit pieces” you Onlyfans keep crying about. Just everyone out to get Harden right? Not a coincidence at all.
Yeah, there is no question that when Harden was traded that his first choice was Brooklyn. The Rockets were trying hard not to burn any bridges any further with the Rockets. If you believe Bontemps the Rockets were not sure if Philadelphia or the Nets would be his top choice leading into the final negotiations... which that seems a little odd to me but Bontemps is usually pretty accurate.
4 Harden threads on the first page between the DISH and GARM totaling 500+ pages. It’s just all me though right? More like his Onlyfans deep throating and circle jerking each other over Harden.
