    wonder if true Nets fans are now hating the fact that they just gave up JA, Lavert, and picks for a fat lazy selfish ISO player

    looking like absolute fools

    a lot of them don’t even watch the games anymore

    and notice how many of them are nowhere to be found now...the ones who always had a lot to say while continuing their anti-Harden agenda

    Where are they at now? U hardly see them.

    their purpose and identity was based around hating Harden and crying/b*tching when the team was actually good...pathetic

    They will never play basketball the right way again. It's a shame.

    I really don't like being that guy but the amount of people now saying they had stopped watching was hilarious.

    It really is telling how we are as a society today.

    Selfish AF.

    Like they are coping and trying to move on unlike you and the rest that refuse to point out that Harden didn't want to be here. As if that crowd chose to have better ball movement and losing over Harden. That 'aint true, never gonna be true, no matter how many times you lie.

    The vitriol of that whole crowd was/is maddening. Several of them took things waaaaaayyy too far all in the name of the win streak mirage against the few teams that were crappier than the Rockets were with Wood. Once he is back and the team continues to lose to the dregs of the NBA, I cant wait to see some of that crowd turn themselves into a pretzel to try and escape their manic posts about "making noise in the playoffs". It would have been cute if they just werent so ugly about any other perspective.

    This gif looks funny AND nasty at the same time...:confused:


    Personally, I think they’re doing an admirable job at tanking! The basketball that we are watching at the moment is the “Washington Generals” type of basketball where you know the team is doing it’s part in making sure the Globetrotters win.

    Don’t get me wrong, this team is far from being a championship contender, and have many holes to upgrade, but what they’re doing on the floor is a well orchestrated cumbia dance!

    OR they monumentally suck, could go either way...o_O


    Go Rockets!!!

    They are not trying to move on they are quitting just like they were saying Harden did.

    That crowd was definitely choosing to have better ball movement over Harden they kept saying it over and over.

    You were probably right there claiming your love of ball movement.

    Think we should hire Bobby Knight so everyone gets to touch the ball. No more than 3 dribbles at a time and everyone touches the ball before they get to shoot.

    It's actually worse than that.

    They are playing with us once the game actually starts midway through the 4th quarter they just put the clamps on us and start blowing us out.

    That's been the same over the 9 game streak and its why I made this thread because the team is giving supreme effort but yet the "ball movement" crowd is still not watching.

    I can't fathom why they would admit that?

    The I like ball movement crowd has been pretty vocal about it for years and years.

    They claimed their eyeballs were seeing great team ball and player movement once the trade happened when it absolutely wasn’t and still isn’t.

    They deserve to hear about it.
