I only care about their record at the end of the season whether they're blown up or not. Even without Kyrie, that's a pretty damn good team.
Harden is a walking 50 win team, even without Irving the Nets will easily get a top 4 seed. However, this is incentives for Harden to leave the Nets instead of signing a long term contract with them.
No one hates him for his money. They hate him for his treatment of people and cheaping out on a Rockets contender. We'll see how he does in the future but his past brings lots to be desired.
I was looking at the Forbes 400 the other week and he's listed as the 17th richest sports owner in the US by net worth. Among the NBA's elite he was something like 6th or 7th. Even among the richest sports owners on the planet, I think he was somewhere around 20-25.
I beg to differ because I don’t think James Harden and Kevin Durant will ever win a championship together
Yes Kevin Durant and James Harden are kinda good at basketball. And that team on paper even without Kyrie is pretty good. But how does the Kyrie situation not make a mess of the locker room? Makes it toxic. At the very least it’s a distraction. KD had to join the Warriors cause he needs more than just a superstar duo to win a championship. And now it’s gone from Kyrie out all homes games to he’s out ALL games AND not allowed to practice with the team. DRAMAAAAA!!! We already all knew Kyrie was weird. But do you think Harden ever thought Kyrie would go full tilt mental? Harden wants to win a championship bad while he’s still in his prime. I see him leaving as soon as he can.
