    your non hangout posts are beyond pathetic. You b**** about other peoples opinions with no ability to back up what you are saying and will clutter a thread with your garbage takes.

    again - wake me up when he does something of note in the post season (other than shriveling like costanzas penis in cold water)

    typical jiggyfly clutter.

    thinks the lightbulb is gonna turn on for James harden after multiple years but doesn’t think Jabari Smith is going to improve in six months.

    Sue me for being a fan of the 2nd best player ever in Rockets history. You don’t have to be but I and anyone else that wants to can as well.

    never said you couldn’t be a fan. He sure brought a ton of smiles to my face. I’m simply recognizing a limitation to his play. He’s a regular season stud and while he improved in the playoffs over the years; big playoff games have always been his Achilles heel. Even prior to joining the Rockets.

    It’s such a known issue - he’s acknowledged it by jumping to other teams where he’s no longer the number one option.

    so you and jiggy are the same person? I’ll never understand the need for some people to have multiple accounts.

    I know it means nothing at this point but you really have to wonder how the narrative on Harden would be different if we as a TEAM didn’t break a record for missed 3s against one of the best teams in NBA history.

    Harden underperforming by his standards was still a ridiculously good basketball player. A lot of the negativity towards Harden is just like all the negativity directed at Yao and TMac when they couldn’t get past D-Will, Boozer, Okur, AK-47 with Rafer Alston shooting 35% as the third option.

    In my opinion the narrative on Harden is what it is more for his nerfing of years because things weren’t to his liking. The forcing of his way from a personnel perspective and ultimately out of Houston. People look at that and think he’s got weak character. Add in his inability to handle the big games and his many many hangover games and he makes a generally unlikeable star.

    I pulled for him for a long time. Kept thinking he would understand how talented he was and end up relying on his talent and work ethic as opposed to the chicanery of trying to draw fouls.

    He never did. He’s still Uber talented but he’s lost a step. He wasted his best years playing one side of the ball. Now he’s chasing rings (and dollars) and recognizing the dollars may not be there in Philly next year. If he comes back to Houston it would only further his characterization of being in it for the wrong reasons. It would also eliminate the narrative that it was Tilmans fault he left. Hell - I’d say the substantiated rumor alone does that.

    if you’re a fan. Be a fan - no one is taking that from you. But don’t try to tell me he’s something more than he is.

    Relax armchair psychologist

    The truth is we were never favored to win a championship. Not even close. We came close to upsetting a 4 all star team one year but Chris Paul broke down. That team ended up sweeping the greatest player of this generation

    Why is it that everyone on here that is still butthurt about Harden ends up exposing themselves as a Poorman dick rider?

    Harden has played well. But, I think the biggest difference in Philly from last year was adding PJ and Melton. Embiid can protect the rim but there was just no resistance before that.

    They might have something if they can keep up their defensive intensity when Maxey comes back.

    I think people question Harden's ability to finish as a scorer in important games but that's not really his role with this team.

    English is in fact your first language. hunh... Congrats on those exquisite grammar skills then!

    Regardless Harden is playing like a top 10 player in the NBA. The Rocket's young players are clear signs of improvement. Asian Sensation throwing insults on the internet as if he is a child. All is right in the world.

    You idiots fall for the same BS every year. It’s December. Of course Harden gonna be playing well. He’s a former MVP that’s making $34M+ a season. He’s doing what he’s supposed to. Then when it comes to playoff time it’s a 2nd round exit and you guys are quiet all summer. Just keep the same energy when it matters. That goes for Harden and his fan club.

    I’m indifferent as far as he is doing in regards to how I feel when I want the rockets to do well (or in this case do bad for a top pick this season)

    If harden does well and is successful it’s Cool though. Wish him the best like I do most people out there. Even you angry poster.
