What are you even saying? The person I quoted essentially was claiming Harden needs Irving to carry him in the 4th quarters. To show him how’s it’s done. The results of this season. Regular season AND playoffs. The only games where Kyrie has been eligible to carry a poor performing Harden in the 4th quarter and show him how’s it’s done. It didn’t happen. Because they both were high level performers in the 4th quarter. Who cares what their reputations and accomplishments are when the claim being made is that Harden needs Irving to carry him in the 4th quarter. The results of the sample of games we have of them on the same team has proven that claim to be false.
A small sample of biased playoff games pales in comparison to the rest of their careers. Like it or not, Irving's 4th quarter reputation is much better than Harden's.
GIVE TILMAN HIS DUE Harden didn't care enough to fight for him and Most Rockets Fans were ready to run him out of town anyway Most didn't like the trade because of what we got in return https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/...-the-worst-contract-hed-ever-seen-per-report/ Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta thought Chris Paul had the 'worst contract' he'd ever seen, per report Fertitta was reportedly a driving force in the Rockets trading Paul last summer Per MacMahon, the trade that sent Chris Paul to the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Russell Westbrook was orchestrated by Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta and James Harden. While that was widely assumed, and everyone knew of the dysfunctional relationship between Harden and Paul, MacMahon gave some additional insight into the motivation that's pretty notable. Apparently, Fertitta believed Paul had the "worst contract" he'd ever seen. Rocket River
I neither like or dislike what Kyrie Irving’s 4th quarter reputation is. When we ask ourselves the question…. Did Kyrie Irving have to carry a bum Harden in the 4th quarter this year in the regular season or the playoffs? Did what we see from Harden this season when healthy make anyone think “yep Kyrie and Durant are clearly gonna have to carry this choking bum”? The answer is no. Based on the results. Not their reputations.
You're the only one asking this question. You know that if you responded to the post as it was intended....the totality of their careers, you wouldn't have much of a response.
At that point it was already too late, as Russ pointed out, the culture here was already rotten and the Rockets let that happen and pretty much gave Harden the keys to the castle. Morey really had no way of winning that side of the argument when they have been always letting Harden have his way
Like I said u r wasting time with the poster. Moves goal post like a pro, can't have a proper debate with someone like that.
It is still crazy to me that he is the ONLY star who's number of foul shots goes down in the playoffs Rocket River
All in all. Harden left us, hell everybody from that season (2018?) Is gone except Gordon. There's really no point in this thread except for the Harden haters to btch and act like they weren't btching about cp3 like most of the posters. I just find it funny that for all the btching, the fkjng owner who approved the trade tilman the cheap ass is conveniently not mentioned at all in double d flip flopping rant. Surely the cheap ass owner is as much fault as morey/Harden.
Can you elaborate? How have I moved goal posts? In your response, please include the original quote to which Jordnnn replied.
No you just dont listen. And are willfully ignorant of the point. @jordnnnn Hey man if i cant take the bait, why should you?
1) Asian Sensation is a harden hater 2) made a false statement that kyrie needs to carry Harden bum ass or teach him how to carry in the 4th 3) Jordann post stats to refute the claim that Harden isn't a bum in the 4th quarter with recent stats 4) u come out of nowhere with your goal post move. Instead of realizing how present day stats is used to disprove an ignornant statement u say some bullsht of how past reputation is y such ignorant statement is acceptable. U are probably the same ignorant causals that still believe Harden sucks at defense. Reputation means Jack sht if the numbers and stats doesn't agree with it. Hence Jordann usage of this season stats. But keep on mvoing the goal post.
