    harden and embiid are darkskin

    thats why these all-nba selections and awards should be computer generated. I made a thread on here about that last year and was laughed at. They( the white media that votes on all-nba and mvp) are salty that steph curry is injured too, they were gonna sneak curry a first team all-nba selection over ja or derozan, now they will be FORCED to add james harden and harden will extend his accolades gap over stephen curry

    harden was amazing in 2021 and wasnt voted all-nba, just like 2016.. these awards should be computer generated from basketball reference

    harden re-aggravated his hand injury he had in brooklyn during that cavs game and shot poorly since. think it's starting to get better and I assume he's going to rest one of their next two games.

    Not shady at all. It's what's good for business.

    If it's a lopsided case in favor of Jokic, they won't be able to debate "Jokic vs Embiid" on their shows. If they can't debate that particular issue, people won't tune in. If people won't tune in, it's less eyeballs and mouse clicks on their videos and pages.

    Jokic is 1st in every advanced stat this season and people think it's racist for him to be mvp?

    i dont think its racist for jokic to be mvp.. in fact i dont have a problem with jokic winning it

    my issue is that the media is trying to screw james harden out of another all-nba selection

    Dallas was 16-5 in their last 21 and Luka has been playing out of his mind since the trade deadline and they let James Frauden and Philly do this?

    Shameful to be honest

    How are they winning with Harden putting up 0,0,0 across the board each game?

    At least, that's what I gather he's doing from the jaded exes on Clutchfans.

    it will be a lot harder to do without midrange....
    an honest question:
    is there any great player or even just a really good playmaker outthere that uses midrange as scarcely as harden?

    Nobody is ‘screwing’ James Harden out of anything.

    2021 Let’s examine. Yes, Harden was amazing in Brooklyn… for 36 games. He played a total of 44 games out of 72. That means he missed nearly 40% of the season. Only the most hardcore Harden fan would think he got ‘screwed’ when he only played 60 % of the season. Only a delusional race baiter would think he got ‘screwed’ cause of his skin tone. He didn’t even make 2nd or 3rd team yet you expected him to be a First team all NBA?

    https://www.nba.com/news/nikola-jok...n-curry-lead-2020-21-all-nba-first-team?amp=1

    2016. Yes, his individual stats/scoring looked great but his Assist : Ratio was particularly bad that year. 7.5 to 4.6 which comes out to be 1.63

    Westbrick was second in TO’s that year at 4.3 but he also averaged 10.4 assists in comparison. Everyone knew that year was a lost cause from the start of the season. Milk Hair, JB bickerstaff, 41-41 record, team was a mess and nobody cared. Even Harden knew the year was a mulligan. He probably should’ve taken it easy and went the load management route. But no. He literally played one side of the ball and chased the scoring title. So to his fanbois it looks like he was trying hard cause he’s scoring well but his defense was non existent.

    https://pr.nba.com/2015-16-all-nba-teams/

    He wasn’t close to making even the 3rd team both of those years you said he got screwed yet he’s made all NBA first team 6 other years? Was he light skin during those 6 years? Why didn’t the voters screw him those times?

    Even if he made them those years the only person that would care, celebrate and bring them up is you. None of that **** matters to Harden’s legacy and how he’s going to be remembered. It’s Championship or bust.

    Or Harden may never win one.Rings aren’t promised no matter how great you are.

    John Stockton
    Karl Malone
    Chris Mullin
    Dominique Wilkins
    Walt Bellamy
    Bernard King
    Charles Barkley
    Patrick Ewing
    Allen Iverson
    Vince Carter
    Tracy Mcgrady
    Yao Ming
    Adrian Dantley
    Shawn Kemp
    Elgin Baylor
    Tim Hardaway
    Grant Hill
    Kevin Johnson
    Sidney Moncrief
    George Gervin
    Chris Webber
    Dave Bing
    Nate Thurmond
    Artis Gilmore
    Bob Lanier
    Alex English
    Steve Nash
    Pistol Pete Maravich
    Reggie Miller
    Lenny Wilkins
    Penny Hardaway


    And the list goes on and on. Doesn’t mean these guys weren’t great players, hell most have or will have their numbers retired. A lot of it is having the right guys, with the right coaches, at the right time. Maybe Harden doesn’t win one it’s happened a ton in the NBA. The guy is gone and his time as a Rocket is done, he did what he could when he was here. He had some great games and some stinkers in some critical moments. But at the end of the day, the Warriors dynasty were always better or the team wasn’t good enough to even play the Warriors in the playoffs as they lost to other teams. The Rockets just couldn’t build another championship team, it’s been 27 years and counting.

    Harden does have a case if Stephen curry has one. Harden is almost averaging a triple double while being 2nd in the East

    Curry had a case earlier in the season when he was on fire. He doesn't have it anymore. Nobody is expecting him to win the MVP at this point.

    Harden doesn't have a case all season. Only fans like you think that he does.
