That wasn't the narrative. The narrative was "no superstar wants to come to HOUSTON to play with Harden."
Harden: "I'm one of the most unselfish players probably that this league has ever saw... For the past two and half years, it's been a struggle for me because I wasn't able to be who I know I am."
Lol @ the die Hard fanbois gearing up for another epic season of fail. How can you stupid mfers fall for the same shiit year after year after year?
LMAO Seriously . . . we are Rockets fans and have been for going on 4 decades We've only been rewarded twice in that time So . . . . .. How Stupid have we been since 1995??? The Francis/Yao years? The TMac/Yao years? Years after that? I don't think any fans of any team that ain't winning championships at least once every 5 or even 10 yrs . . . can call any other fans stupid. Rocket River
Regarding 2.5 year struggle of not being who he wants to be. That to me is talking too much, trying to find a narrative for his subpar play (granted he was injured in the playoffs in Brooklyn). He seemed to play just fine and be himself when he got traded to Brooklyn, so I'm not understanding this 2.5 year struggle timeline. Same with the 76ers, was traded there, and was playing really well. So what's really the excuse he is going for here?
Dafuq does the bearded bum playing in Brooklyn, Philly or anywhere else have anything to do with being a Rockets fan?
I see, we know he has rabbitt ears and is a bit thin-skinned but to his credit he was not making excuses every day during the last 2 years while everybody and they mommy were coming for him. The 2.5 years is the entire time he got traded and started getting that backlash and the questions.
Well, he is top30 in assists in the league's history (will likely finish his career being top15 in assists)... I guess you can interpret that as being unselfish. Then again, the way he left Houston certainly was reeking of selfishness.
I know, but that's the problem with James, he sometimes just needs to let it be and just continue to play his game. Ultimately the criticism for James is lackluster playoff performances. He's done it all, except win the big one, and unfortunately, he will continue to be criticized until he wins that championship. I personally just want him to stop making excuses and just own it.
Same here, I'm a Harden fan but he needs to stfu and stop dating lil baby until he can at least reach the finals...
Tell me why the 76rs are going to implode this year I could see 76rs trading Harden & Embiid for all of all of our draft picks that we have on reserve Harden just turned 33 and he doesn’t look like he will age gracefully. Embiid is already 28. If they burn out this year I could see our lotto pick + every first rounder we have This will help solve our over abundance of draft picks on a roster filling up quickly & help Morey go full rebuild with Nets picks I would need Harden to come off the bench though. I’m not letting a 35yr old Harden start over KPJ. He had his time and would need to understand it’s a new generation and he is here to help himself get a ring
