    You have 5 post on 1 page in a thread you claim you don't care about.

    It's evident you care an awful lot, all you have to do is read the thread.

    The 1st step is acceptance.

    Or just stop reading and posting in a thread you don't care about.

    Its tough to see Harden like this man, I guess its time to accept he really has declined. He's just not the same player anymore. That dude was gone as soon as he blew out his hammy in Brooklyn.

    Ok, not related to this post but I want a unified theory on skin color, liberalism, whiteness, hoodness and latte preferences (soy or non soy) on NBA awards voters from you. I’m really interested. as a white guy is it ok/normal for me to like Harden? Am I only allowed to appreciate his greatness and skill set because I’m a conservative? If I voted Democrat would I no longer like Harden. Also, I’m a huge KD fan but I did go to UT so that trumps all else. If I wasn’t a longhorn would I/should I still like KD, or nah?
    I’m not sure if you’ve explained this all before but I’m fascinated. I 90% agree with your takes on Harden and others but not sure where it’s coming from.
    Also/l- is it not ok for black people to like Jokic? All the stats say he’s having an incredible year, but I must confess I can’t make myself care enough about the nuggets to watch a game, unless they are playing Harden, KD or maybe the Rockets.
    thanks, I will hang up and listen now.

    weren't you really confident that CP3 was going to bounce back before we traded him. Maybe Harden will bounce back too who knows. Gotta get some of that secret sauce CP3 and Lebron takes

    James is a playoff choker. How is your confidence not yet broken? @HP3

    Basically long story short, the nba media used to get all of their voters from the new york area, it wasnt until adam silver in 2013 did the nba media start mostly hailing from california. California and liberals are all about promoting a certain kind of blackness. Michael Jordan would have been destroyed if he played tin this era, he ref baited and got the whistle even more than harden. A guy like dwayne wade would have been killed and mocked instead of celebrated for his 2006 finals run. These white guy liberals who vote on nba awards now hate players being able to get to the free-throw line, they used their power to convince adam silver to curtail the amount of fouls were called at the beginning of the season. They want everybody to play like steph curry, but the truth is most young players in aau do not respect how steph curry plays. Steph doesnt play like kobe or mj. 1 on 1 play in the nba has been a staple going back for years, but it seems like the new age voter punishes guys for playing that style( no matter how effecient it is). What gets me tho, is that luka doncic( who i love as a player) is basically a spitting image of james harden not lebron, not kobe but harden, and the same media go out of their way to heap praise on this guy. So its basically a colorism issue in the nba

    a playoff choker, and yet still gets attention from espn and fs1 everytime he losses a game. why bother with a playoff choker if he is no threat, why not just leave him be

    At least Jalen still has upside unlike Harden who is all downhill from here. Harden now has recorded his lowest TS% since his rookie year.

    That 5 year max deal from Philly gonna be a major poison pill.

    Zion and Simmons aren't even playing but nobody leaves them alone.

    It comes with the salary.

    Ok. I think Harden does get **** on too much- I guess the part of it that I’m not getting is why is this a liberal thing in your mind? Would conservatives feel differently?
    You look at a place like the Ringer and Simmons and Russilo hate on Harden incessantly. As does Zach Lowe and that shithead blowhard from Memphis. But KOC loves Harden. Stephen A seems down on him. I think there’s a lot group think and I think Simmons is out in front leading it, but he was way more anti Westbrook and I think he has orgasms to Hoosiers. Shouldn’t a good self loathing liberal like Harden in theory because he’s anti-white?
    Also- I think it’s unfair to Steph to act like he left the hood behind or whatever you said- he obviously isn’t from there and it’s not a part of him growing up as a multimillionaires kid, so he seems authentic to me, not like some other guys who came out and might be putting on airs. Who does like Harden? And why?
    I respect the efficiency and get irritated when people ignore context (like him coming closer to beating the warriors than anyone else when he was the only star) because I just don’t like stupid which a lot of the hurr durr he ain’t got no ringz culture comes across as. He had three legit chances to win a ring. 1 in OKC when he **** the bed in the finals when they were all babies, 1 when CP3 got hurt against an all time team, and then the layup in Brooklyn that he lost out on due to injuries to he and Kyrie. That’s it. No other team he was on should have gone further and all that shot is easily explainable as bad luck (other than the first finals when he was bad and would have won a title if he was good- but like I said they were kids).
