    A chance to win a ring in Brooklyn with a guy who tore his achiles and a head case who's never played a full season and just had shoulder surgery. OK.

    If injuries all of a sudden don't matter then John Wall and Demarcus Cousins are All NBA players you are more than capable of winning with....

    It’s so sad to see harden going out like such a p***y. At least show your face at practice, don’t go out like this. Don’t turn your back on a whole franchise/city that has loved you and had your back through the thick and thin.

    Stop this nonsense, in sports teams, you can't care too much. Life goes on.

    Leave Harden alone. Just get another Hobbie.

    The Rockets are in a recooperation, transition.

    The best Players are trying to have comeback year or players want to move on.

    Did she mean he gave Tilman an ultimatum and not that he wanted it?


    Late to the party, but just sayin'.

    What im reading is his mom saying she is proud that hes selfish. I dont agree with that. They dont have right to say only fans who are yes-men are right ones. They are rich forever because of doing things fans like and now he doesnt care about them going out like p***y. At the end of the day her son dont cure cancer to get a free pass... he is really good at ****ing shooting leather ball into oval rim. These people are ****ing delusional i swear

    So is Harden basically partying to decrease his value down to a price the Nets can afford?


    The NBA truly needs to learn from this. Can't give these players too much leverage. You want to play with your friends, go play at Rucker Park, if that's still a thing.

    Been saying this for some time. If the players want freedom, cool, but if you keep pushing it, the pendulum will swing hard the other way the next time the NBPA & NBA come to the table for the next CBA agreement.

    Now we know what james tells her mom. That he doesnt think that he can win with this team.

    Its not his fault to feel that way, but with the way hes responding to the situation is such a bad look.

    He may recognize this or not. This situation will have an impact on his legacy one way or the other. Hope he comes out on the right side of it

    The myth of Tilman doing that trade by himself against Morey's will.
    Ok, let's listen what Morey had to say about that trade:

    At the day the Rockets introduce Westbrook:

    You can plead Fertita made the final push, but you can't assert that Morey had nothing to do with this move. It is not rational and more a product of wanting to point out a Good and a Bad (the Ugly would be RW) in the whole story.

    It's tiring how Harden or Fertitta are singled out on this one but Morey, the GM, always comes out unscathed. He was a very good GM for the most part of his time here, but he really ****ed it at this one.

    Morey is good at telling a story. Its one of his many strong strong suits as a front office executive. Tillman said, not Morey said that the front office got cold feet towards the end and he had to push it through. After the trade, Bill Simmions instantly said Darl would not be there long-term. Bill and Darly have been friends for over a decade since Morey's Boston days.

    Also, if the league at large believed that Morey was the Architect of the Westboork deal he would have not gotten a higher-paying job instantly after leaving.

    Morey has made mistakes over his time as GM but this is not one of them. Taking Joey Dorsey over Deandre Jordan is definitely one of them.

    Am I the only one that got an impression when she said that he is asking for a chance to win a ring ... that could also very well mean with the Houston Rockets ! Like he’s asking for upgrades to the team.. upgrades that would make the team better .. why does this have to mean he is asking to go to another team so he can win a ring ? Just a thought

    People really going after his moms right now. Y'all need a reality check or some real problems or something.


    I wonder how many people realize his statement is basically just what the rest of us have been saying for 2 years? He fired one back at Tillman Fertitta and clutchfans couldn't handle it, because god damn, of course it couldn't.

    The sad part about it is if Harden was traded to BKN they wouldn't win because of the egos

    All you coward ass "fans" going in on his mom aren't no fans - just trolls who need to get a life and realize that your superfandom doesnt give you the right to be an insolent c u n t.

    Get a grip and take the news as it comes, stop trying to be the news.
