    Lol @HP3 working overtime still defending his loser hero. Is this really how you want to spend your summer ever year? Making excuses for your bearded bum coming up short time after time. Every season somehow someway he finds a way to lose none of which involves making shots in critical times and or shooting a high %.

    2020 was one of his best chances. Other stars were injured, the season was halted due to an unknown virus.

    A lot of chaos to take advantage of.

    I would not bank my chances on the health of Kevin Durant.

    At the end of the day, enjoy his millions.

    Regarding the Rockets, it's not bashing if it's true.

    Except Draymond Green had nothing to do with Kawhi's injury. Remove Draymond Green from the equation, and Kawhi still gets injured. There's no logical reason to assume Kawhi Leonard would've been at full health for the duration of the series. Since that's a deviation from reality, the onus is on YOU to make that distinction.

    Please use some critical thinking. If they numbed the pain and allowed a player with a legitimate grade 2 strain to play on it, do you understand how easily the muscle could tear?

    Going from doubtful to playing in one day means the severity of the injury was overstated.

    Yep. I'll bet you didn't know that his hamstring strain at the end of the season was a grade 3. :rolleyes:

    Except for the parts that aren't humanly possible, it was totally reasonable.

    James Harden bleeds red, white, AND blue. Don't spend time naming a better American because you won't find one. It's God, country, strippers and then hamstrings.

    He faked the hamstring injury earlier during the regular season because he is a fat lazy bum and wanted time off.

    He had no real fear of Boston so he decided to quit faking it and play. But it was mostly a fluke he played so well.

    He then saw the Bucks coming and got scared. He proceeded to fake an injury again so he wouldn’t have to deal with any blowback for losing to Milwaukee. Also he was looking ahead to team USA and didn’t want to use too much energy trying to win a title. Because these Olympic Games start next week and he needs to be ready.

    That really makes no freaking sense if he is injured. Assuming he has to rehab that injury, will he be healthy in time for the Olympics? I'm genuinely curious.

    I guess he didn't make more damage than possible, otherwise he would of been dragging that foot the entire game.

    Well, I think it's not so weird. Afterall, he was good enough to play 3 straight high-intensity playoff games just now. He could definitely play in low-intensity glory practice type games next week, if he's cautious, maybe this can function similarly recovery workouts. This can also help on getting his mind off of the playoff loss.

    I can't believe Harden has the nerve to play for Team US after faking a hamstring injury to avoid Giannis.
