    Unfortunately, character is just as important as talent for a player to win.

    James harden talent and chris paul character is what i want my best player to be.

    There is something ironic about you of all people calling others Harden simps. Weren't you the guy defending Harden when he was partying prior to the start of the season and dismissed his absence from training camp as no big deal?

    Yeah we really need a 3rd backup C for when one of Wood/Cousins are out or in foul trouble. Waive Bruno, if he isn't getting minutes on nights like tonight he's worthless.

    I wasn't willing to jump on him prematurely. Since that time, he proved who he is as a person, and I'm just not having it anymore.

    Its more likely than saying he quit with the games he's had already this season. The man had 12 assists and played defense like he was trying. If yall wanna say he quit fine, but Im willing to give it till next game to give the benefit of the doubt.

    It’s not only the bigs but, The wing players are all 6’4. In 2018, they were 6’8. It makes a huge difference with 50/50 balls, rebounding and finishing in the paint. They’re playing a lot of small ball minutes and they’re not winning anything that way. It’s lazy as hell to just blame Harden. This team has size issues.

    He is quitting. These last two games he just look so passive and barely engage. Hurt? He has played hurt before and played well too. If he is going to do this I prefer his “hurt” status and just bench him. We got our last win without Harden.

    The team is too small to win big.

    Nonsense. The team being small isn't why James Harden is being completely passive and trying to ride the coattails of his teammates....and that's the team's #1 problem. They thought they had a superstar player yet James Harden wants to be merely a mediocre role player all of a sudden.

    For the 10th time, no Harden trade until all trade exceptions expire in Feb making all players available except Roco!

    Toronto could be an option once Baynes and others become available along with Siakim.

    James Harden is playing like a loser though. Pretty stats for him.

    Folks b****ed when he isolated, he’s gotten off the ball and folks are b****ing. I’m sure the guy complained about small ball after getting pounded inside by the Lakers last year. And then they come back with a rookie coach, running less iso , & with a bunch of 6’4 guards on the wing. Harden looks like a guy trying not to rock the boat now after initially showing his ass.They are still playing Tucker at center. Wood and Cousins are nice but brittle. Until this team gets 6’7 - 6’8 guys on the wing that can defend, rebound, make shots and win 50/50 balls, They’re not going anywhere. This is the NBA
