anytime you have a guy who is in the top 5 for scoring even after the All-Star break. He is the leader of the team he plays for. That's like saying Westbrook is the leader of the Thunder when Durant is dropping 30 a night
I'll admit that players may listen to Harden solely because he came from a winning mentality in OKC. Also, look at the previous threads that proclaim Rafer to be the team leader. Obviously you don't have to be the most talented....
OMG, how the frick is Lin winning this poll? i can't freaking stand the LOF disease. so sad. so pathetic. He MIGHT be our 4th best player. Can't wait till Morey ships him off, which he eventually will, just so we can get rid of his fans. The Lin signing has felt like a year-long rash as far as I'm concerned. Good God, please let these groupies fall into some abyss that hasn't been discovered yet.
I'm pretty sure you're Asian. As I said in my previous point, the players know who their leader is, and I have heard Parsons and Lin both respond, on radio, that Harden is their team's leader.
I don't deny being asian. What's your point? Is that a crime? I've been a Rocket's fan before Yao was here.
Hey, if you ever happen across a link to an archived recording, I'd love to hear it for myself. Thanks!
Lol, I'm not questioning your fanhood; just your judgment. You have a biased opinion... but then again, that's my opinion. We can agree to disagree... I just thought that some of your points on Lin weren't entirely true. Regardless, everyone gets a vote. The leader is the person everybody wants to follow and according to this thread, it's Lin. I admit defeat. Good day sirs
LOL I wish it were that easy... the furthest I would go is a Google search. I listen to 610 and 790 often. I get it though, my point is invalid until proven valid.
Perhaps my judgement could be biased. I thought Lin was a scrub before he broke out in NY...now he's about average.
That's not my point at all. I actually would love to hear the interview. In my mind, Harden is the man.
Haha! Thanks for pulling that up! Never would have expected that. Just ctrl+f and look for leader. This is Jeremy Lin saying it though. A radio interview has Parsons saying it too.
