"Forgive me, but I'm not going to buy the stock of the Houston Rockets. I've seen James Harden flame

How many times has this fool been wrong. Who hires these idiots.

 

This.... is trash.

How do these people have jobs? All they do is get a talking point or a narrative and then they all just say the same thing.

I don't think most of these 'analysts' even watch most of the games. They probably just read the headlines and watch some of the other talking heads, then just spew out and repeat the same garbage. Anyone that watches the team this year can tell that this is not the same team as last year.

And, unfortunately, they are just going to continue to say the same things about Harden until Harden shuts them up. We've seen it happen before. Lebron James wasn't clutch enough and big moments were too big for him. Steph Curry's ankles were too injury prone and he wasn't going to be able to stay healthy enough. Dirk Nowitzki was too soft and too bad of a defender. Kevin Durant was too passive and choked too much.
Lebron was swept in the Finals. Both Steph and KD lost 3-1 leads.

The media creates these kinds of narratives about players and says "I don't know if they are good enough to lead a team to a championship." And, for all of those players, the only thing that shut them up was winning a championship.

 

I don't care that the media doesn't trust Harden and CP3 in the playoffs. It's up to them to re-write the narrative. I think Harden and CP3 can advance together. I hope they can.

What I think is bullsh*t is this dude not thinking JJ fits into what the Rocket are doing. If JJ went to any other contending team (Celtics, GSW, Cavs) he would have loved the acquisition.

He goes on to say Harden and CP3 are ball-stoppers so why would Rocket sign another ball-stopper?

Everyone loves a team that passes the ball 10 times in a possession to get one shot, but when you have 3 of the best isolation players in the league you don't have to pass that often. JJ fits in perfectly.

Furthermore, Harden and CP3 are averaging 9 and 8 assists respectively.

 

I mean it's not false. Harden has disappeared for most playoff series. But now we have a much better team and he should have much more energy down the stretch now.

 

LOL, "ball stoppers."

 

Let the idiots run their mouths, but it's really up to James to shut them up for good. It's not unique to him. Look at all the chatter around Lebron before he finally won.

At the end of the day, the only guy who can shut these fools up is James Harden.

 

Lol....he said Beard/CP3/JJ have balls..

Would you guys rather everyone reiterate how seriously the Warriors need to take us and that we’re a legit threat?

Let them overlook. Harden plays no defense? What a lazy take.
