    Or he could’ve made just 1 or 2 more shots instead of going 2-12 from 3 and 5-17 overall. It’s a make or miss league buddeh.

    of course he should make it. But by then he’s played 52 minutes and is clearly gassed. As I said, a grade 2 hamstring injury is going to affect your shot no matter what. His power and accuracy will be off for the the most part. Harden’s legs were probably ****ed after the 4th quarter after playing 3 45 minute games in a row. Not to mention, this was only his 3rd game in 3 weeks. Harris, who was not injured and only has to spot-up for the most part, missed so many wide open 3pt shots in the series. Harris should be knocking down 60% of those wide open 3pt shots he gets with the Nets. And he shouldn’t be that gassed.

    Should be a picture of a doctor. Walking boot for Kyrie, crutch for Harden and a thermometer for Deandre Jordan.

    And im not sad for them. Screw their little superteam party. But screw Antentokmnspx too

    Believe what you want, but outside of blatant Harden fanbois like you nobody would put him in the level of Lebron, KD and Kawhi. Majority of people even put him below Steph not to mention those guys.

    The built in hamstring excuse is really annoying. Isn't that what all of the Harden fanboys held against CP3 for 2 years? Should Brooklyn try to run it back by replacing everyone with Michael Carter Williams and James Ennis and Iman Shumpert now? Or trade Harden and 4 firsts for Russell Westbrook?

    I just returned back your entire statement to you and you say nothing there. That meant your original post to me is nothing either.

    It really is, but we’ve seen them contort into 4D pretzels to protect him

    Harris is a wanted man. He should lay low. The city is coming for him. :D

    Huh? Nobody blamed CP3 in the 17/18 season. Yeah, he went missing against the Warriors in the 18/19 season, but that wasn’t down to him being injured. He just didn’t show up till game 6 that year.

    As a Rox fan those 3 unprotected picks and swaps are looking great.

    Not a Harden fanboy by any stretch, but would not put him below Steph.

    I know, the rINgS argument, but since it needs to be said, Adam Morrison is not better than Dominique Wilkins, Zaza Pachulia is not better than Charles Barkley, etc.

    Again, if he would’ve played just a little better the hamstring severity would’ve never even been brought up. It’s the playoffs. I’m sure they’re all tired and nobody is 100%. Whether it’s bad luck, being out shape, or just coming up short the man has had MULTIPlE golden opportunities to finally break through whether it was here or in Brooklyn. His fanbois are still waiting. I abandoned that ship a long ass time ago so makes no difference to me.

    Nets just aren't good enough, Harden has virtually no help. Some of yall talk ish about Harden but we cant expect him to do it all every night. Oh crap, new team but the excuses stay the same...

    No, thats not what it means. The dude was playing on a grade two hamstring injury. Just because you cant use context, doesnt mean I cant. You provided no arguments. But this is always the same story with you.

    To be fair I do feel bad for Nash and Dantoni. This was an incredibly high stakes job for Nash to take. Both class guys though.

    Harden, Durant, Kyrie, Griffin? Not sorry.

    Happy for PJ and Milwaukee fans.

    Hope the Greek Brick doesn't win a 'ship. Hate his game and the praise it gets. Just can't stand athletes like him, Lillard, Curry, Dray who have huge egos. It's worse when they have accomplished nothing.
