    The kings are trying so hard to lose this gamebut they're still beating the cavs

    Every bottom team in the NBA is blatantly tanking at this point since the 26' draft looks somewhat promising

    Cleveland is such a puzzling team. So much talent and yet

    I wish Rockets brought back Harden. We could have really used him.

    Harden hit some clutch 3s at the end of the 4th. Westbrook chucked up some stupid 3s too and sank the Kings. Guess he only sinks them when he plays the Rockets.

    Will go down as the most underappreciated player of all time.

    Bro just hopped off a plane, had ten mins of practice, and still put up casually efficient numbers and made Jarrett Allen look like an all star.

    14 years after he casually did the same for us in his debut. Straight baller.

    All while probably hitting up strip clubs on the regular too apparently.

    Gotta say, not sure how it's going to go for him lol. He went from Houston to New York to Philly to LA...to Cleveland. Not sure how the nightlife is up there but I imagine it pales in comparison to his other stops.

    Idk why westbrick took like 3 or 4 three pointers in the closing 2 minutes. Doesn’t he know he only makes those when he plays against Houston??? I guess the kings want to lose to get better pick but it was so cringe seeing that ending of the game. Kings were up and seemed to have momentum and had a Houston collapse

    He truly is under appreciated. Has to be one of the greatest floor raisers there is. If he’s on your team, you will make the playoffs but when you get there it’s a different story :oops:

    To be absolutely fair, he had prior chemistry with Jarrett Allen and Jarrett knows that if he wants easy buckets he sets picks for him.

    National NBA commentators going through their same dumb ****:

    How will Harden fit with Chris Paul (answer they will be the best team in the league)
    How will Harden fit with Kyrie & Durant, he's so ball dominant (answer very well that team was hyper-elite when all 3 were healthy)
    How will Harden fit with Embiid, he's so ball dominant (answer very well Embiid won MVP in their only full season together)
    How will Harden fit with Kawhi, their games don't complement (answer it was fine, Kawhi does his thing, Harden does his with Zubac, Powell etc)

    This weekend I had to listen to Harden haters (Andrew Schlect etc) go on their same bullshit, Harden is a DISASTER in the playoffs, there's only one ball, e How will he fit? He's too slow paced. Too ball dominant, you have Donovan Mitchell.

    Here's an idea, the guy who's one of the greatest passers & orchestrators of his generation will....figure it out! He will also dribble the clock down and draw fouls, like pretty much every other team that has an elite perimeter guy, like Cleveland already did with Mitchell.
