Obviously you didn't know what a close out game was unless you thought the Rockets/Suns could have closed out the Warriors/Bucks in Game 6 2019/21. It's ok it's a confusing term. I mean that.
Feel free to post close out or elimination games to Twitter yourself. I don't have an account myself.
I didn’t say he was happy with CP3, but this narrative that he wanted him out by any means is alternative facts
No problem. I’ll continue to post about cp3. The dumbest trade in history by the worst owner will not go away around here
Yeah I know. But CP3 was getting traded Harden wasn't lifting a finger or a voice to help him stay. Harden was indifferent about CP3 which is just as bad as wanting him out, IMO.
Plus didn't @Clutch himself report that Harden was literally calling Morey everyday to ask if the CP3 for Westbrook trade was done yet and along with Tilmna was the biggest advocates of the deal.
Elbows to the face from Chris Paul are just part of the play. Nothing to see here. The narrative is set. Suns going all the way, the "Point God" will finally get his ring. Gross.
if Harden was indifferent, then Tilman should’ve stayed the F out the way instead of forcing it through when the FO got cold feet if Tilman was really just doing everything Harden wanted, we wouldn’t have been so hellbent on avoiding the LT, because I doubt Harden wanted that even if he preferred Westbrook over Paul because he thought Russ was better and/or because he had a much better relationship with him, Harden’s actions recruiting Butler and his initial actions with Russ show that he still had some willingness to play CP3 even it was just very slight…Tilman on the other hand was already going around saying how CP3 was the worst contract in basketball in the early summer Tilman refused to spend for a contender…Rockets trying for a championship, and every other word out his mouth had something to do with the luxury tax…Rockets magically just so happened to reduce payroll with damn near every trade now who knows when the Rockets will get back to contention…hopefully I’m not old and senile the next time the Rockets even just make the finals…it’s been 27 years and counting
When has Tilman stayed out of anything? I'm just telling you what I think Harden could have done to keep CP3 here. that's all. Harden didn't care if CP3 left, he didn't care if he stayed. He didn't fight for either. He left it up to Tilman. That was bad, IMO Harden is the most passive aggressive person in the NBA. He wont tell you what he wants until it's too late. Harden had the power in the franchise he just used it on the frivolous stuff. You can be mad at Tilman, I'm mad at Harden for not recognizing CP3 was the best thing to happen to him. I dont expect Tilman to know that.
I thought Clutch reported that Morey told Harden the Russ trade, that would have put all 3 guys on one team, wasn't going to happen. Harden was like okay and moved on.
Basically all players are dumb and have no idea how to build a team, see: LeGM. Harden left Morey to do his thing; Tilman should have done the same.
