Even though i can't condone partying in a pandemic. I can see Harden wanting to get his partying out of the way since the NBA just banned it for the season.

Harden and Tucker finally practicing with the group and speaking on media day, being bought in with actions matching words will resolve all of this for fans.

I can understand both sides of opinon and thier perspectives, hoping for the best for the team.

That’s probably a pretty good point

The main thing to remember about Harden is that he doesn’t immediately trust people or attempt to forge relationships. Daryl Morey talked about it in the past. It took Daryl awhile to get Harden to trust him and open up to him. The same with MDA. Once trust is established Harden is pretty loyal. So the reality is Silas will need to gain Harden’s trust and that happens with the Rockets winning and Silas being true to his word. So it may take a little time.

And much more sincere and persistent effort on Silas part.

The relationship is off to a terrible start, no question. And that's on Silas, (and of course Tilman). But I'm holding out hope that James shows and that they put this behind them. I think when the two talk Harden is going to discover that Silas isn't as young and raw as he comes across and that Silas is pretty strong willed. I guess we'll see.

How is this on Silas??? C’mon man Harden is clearly the diva here (and to an extent i understand why he wants out; if it’s truly about winning).

but I don’t blame Silas for not hounding, constantly texting and calling Harden. Get out the club, come in to the office and have a conversation like men, face to face - so I don’t have to keep speculating how you “supposedly feel” or your “commitment to this team” to the media.

this is lame man. Let this dude go and get the picks - go to war with the squad we have.

And... whilst he's doing that, he's still by far our best player. He can play awful and still get you 30 plus points. Can't say the same for most of the other top players in the league.

I never said he wasn't one of the top players in the league?

If thats what he is doing I get it. This season will be a grind. The teams with chemistry will dominate the other teams will faze out

So all this is leading up to a championship?

I'm intrigued.

It very well could. I think the leadership on the team is better

Hey the 95 championship team had a ton of drama too. You never know what could happen.

That's very much possible. It would be terrible, if it's true.

You "don't think so"? Harden "probably" tested positive? Are you just making this up?

THIS. We are going to need Harden and Silas to forge a relationship. Hopefully as the team wins and Harden sees how Silas can augment Harden's game and lift the team in general, Harden will start the trusting.
