Players send too many mixed signals to take what they say at face value. Not that I think he is lying, but it's hard to put too much faith in anything any player or front office person says.
This is true but the Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers are different organizations in terms of location, history, and ability to lure free agents. They’re easier to be loyal to. This is why I’ve always backed harden’s loyalty to Houston as one of his greatest attributes. I don’t even mind that he wants to be traded. He’s put 8 years of good work in this city, I just hate how he’s gone about the process. It’s been hard on the fans that have defended him at every turn, they don’t deserve to be let down in this way.
Oh the irony of that statement. How the hell is he embarrassing Rocket fans and humiliating them. You sound unhinged.
Kobe had already won titles when he wanted out of LA..... Harden hasn't. I think Harden would be a whole lot less likely to leave if he already had titles... it is easy for Klay and Curry to say they will stay in GS after having won titles, same with someone like Wade or some others.... it legitimizes players unfortunately.
Then we need to watch him closely if he can put this behind him mentally, spiritually. Then we might sort of get past that. He probably won't go to Chicago for those 2 games so let's just take a chill pill for the present.
I am a big fan and don't feel let down in the least, it's what he has to do to get action or be traded. Do you think Tillman would not be doing business as usual if he did not? I knew this was headed to a reckoning when Morey was let go and its what I would do if I had this much clout, I don't understand how he has let fans down when they know what tillman has done.
im just saying kobe said publicly on radio he wanted to be traded ..he wasnt ..and all is well that ends well. reality is harden hasnt stated publicly and at this point came in late only. its fair to think he is likely gone but he isnt so far
Ham on a croissant, with a Tab soda and a bag of Pizzarias chips....... until he is properly fed he will not have any further conversations with Coach Silas. Once properly fed he will instruct Silas on what offense the Rockets will run in Harden's absence.
i'm not sure i have what it takes for a long drawn out Dwightmare type scenario with my rockets (Hardmare?) Hope he will be professional and minimize some of the drama ...or at least some of the drama that he helped create and perpetuate.
