    If it’s not you how about you stay out of it? Have your read every derogatory post directed towards me? Didn’t think so. Fight your own battles.

    Now tell me more about this unlocking event

    :eek::rolleyes:

    I have a theory Asian Sensation is Tinman's twin brother, except his obsession/disdain is for Harden instead of Jeremy Lin (and I don't mean this as an insult).

    Both are 99er's. Both have posted a ton about their respective subjects in the Dish and have made trolling Harden/Lin fans their calling. Lastly both are at least partly correct in some of their views even if their obsession/volume/trolling seems odd/strange to me.

    I've long thought that these Harden threads would be very similar to the many Lin threads in the past. When you start seeing posters arguing more about each others fandom/personalities/ and things other than actual basketball, you know its just like Tinman vs Yoeddie all over again.

    The only difference is these Harden threads aren't quiet as prodigous in insults or volume and the number of fans vs haters is more even.

    Alright this is the last time im gonna say it, but if you look at the people who like Harden, they still talk about when he plays bad. Its not like anyone here worships the guy.

    Lmao its like when people tell me BOTH SIDES ARE BAD when discussing politics LOL.

    40 years old CP3 already gets more points than Harden. 8 minutes left.

    With the way you post, I can see why people are derogatory towards you.

    I mean, you won't even fight your own battles because you're too scared of talking to people who will actually respond to you, unlike a James Harden, who never will. I get it. That's why you trash him so much - it's projection. Hey, if that's what makes you feel better at the end of the day, have at it.

    And yep, I was wrong on WCS. Definitely thought Harden could work some magic, like he did for the corpses of Griffin and LMA. But, as WCS has been unsigned since Philly waived him, looks like every other NBA team doesn't deem him worthy of a roster spot. He's simply not an NBA player.

    Remember. . . Harden was suppose to beat a team with 4 hall of famers in their prime once CP3 went down

    What are you even jibbering and jabbering about? Go lick your wounds like the rest of the fan club and come back if and when he ever actually shows up.

    I don't know what that has to do with my post, the point of which wasn't to say Harden fans worship the guy nor the opposite.

    It was that these threads and the Lin threads are more about posters trolling one another than actual basketball most/many of the time. And that the Lin thread was actually much much worst.

    Nah, I'm done responding to you. You're too much of a p***y, too stupid to actually have an intelligent conversation with and just too ignorant to notice that no one thinks Harden is still this MVP caliber player. Keep shaking your fists at the clouds tho - I'm sure they'll appreciate the trash you waft their way.

    Thank goodness for the ignore function on this site.

    Says who? I bet if there was a poll about who should gtfo between you and anyone on the forums lately, it would be you by a long shot...

    People used to root for the team that Harden was on and associate him with their cheerful emotions and may want to see the guy succeed. It may take a while to disassociate those feelings from the man. Let us have a peaceful experience with it. I personally have always disliked Harden as a personality but I still have hard time seeing him take what appears like a precipitous performance hit lately. It's like a passing of an era if true. And it kinda stinks.

    It's Tinman and his irrational hate for Lin all over again. Can't you find some other outlet for your negative emotions instead of making people miserable on here?

    Is this where I’m supposed to beg you to stay or somehow be bothered that you’re gonna ignore me?

    The pathetic thing is the 76ers would be quite excited if they could trade Harden for 40 years old Christ Paul.

    Nah uh, I'm not getting pulled into this!

    I will say that you can hate @Asian Sensation all you like but...he was consistent that Harden disappoints in the playoffs. I think that's always been his main point, it's just he got more aggressive because people kept telling him he was wrong and coming at him...but every season during the regular season he would always say that Harden would end up disappointing.

    And Harden doesn't go out on his sword, you know this. Embiid is hurt, that sucks, that's unfortunate, but game 1 was right there and watching that 2nd half I feel confident in saying he didn't play with the urgency needed. If Philly wins that game 1, they are still ahead in this series. They got the road split, less pressure on Embiid coming back, it's a different series...and if Harden at least went out with a 40 point game and lost you can still say "He gave his all but it just wasn't enough..."

    It's true Harden's lack of even going to the finals is not all his fault but....the guy doesn't help the narrative with games like that.

    Thank you. Finally someone who understands. I never had anything against Harden’s fans until they came at me for having a different viewpoint and made it personal. Thing is most of them can dish it out but they can’t take it. Cheers.

    Pulled into what lol?

    Lmao, bro stop. You sound like a huge apologist. Have you read any of the drivel this dude has written lol? Lol disappoints? Bro, we had bad breaks when he was here. Lots of players have bad playoff games and we were never really talented enough at the right times to make it. He was wrong. With Harden we almost never lost to a team worse than us. We won 65 wins and with Cp3 we almost beat the GOAT team.

    Bro, he's declined. Hes not the same Harden. He looks cooked. Add to that Miami was shading him completely the whole time. Yea he was trash but he's not Houston James Harden.

    Dude he's played like this all season. I dont know what you expected, but this is James Harden right now. I dont know what anyone expected when he blew out his hamstring last season. I dont know what anyone expected him to do with Westbrook. I dont know what anyone expected when Chris Paul didnt show up in 2019(injured from his hamstring). And in 2018 Cp3 got injured the first time.

    Yea Harden has had his warts, but to act like the dude is some huge playoff choker isnt true. And thats exactly what the moron writes about.
