    That's a bad look. No true leaders talk like that.

    I doubt that strongly, everything must come together

    but it does not favor Harden's maturity, he still be worshipped as a flawed God, revels in admiration

    one time championship aspiration at best

    The real superstars that make their teammates better, go to the Finals consistently or
    5 times in 10 years, that consistent

    Not only that, Harden hasn't even been fun to watch. His iso game and ball dominance has made the team so predictable and visually painful. Sigh... don't think I can watch another season of Harden being our main guy.

    Sometimes I do wonder if Harden's iso play is due to the system, or vice verca.

    But at this moment, I would much rather have a starting 5 of Capela, Beasley, KJ, Harden and Goudelock.

    Players that are willing to work.

    Probably more fun to watch than Iso ball and brick layers and HANDS of stone(I'm talking to you Dwight)

    Draymond on notion that he's a product of Curry's play: "I am a product of Steph." Also, about Curry, "If he doesn't make you better, YOU suck"

    Harden is not Curry. Nice try.

    I'll give it one more makeover, if he still can't make it part of collective team, then we're treading on Melo territory where you question the guy and not the people around him.

    This team needs tough players like young Artest, Von Wafter or Aminu and so on.

    He was just a part of a collective team last year. He was part of a collective team in OKC. He was basically a part of a collective team his entire career until this year. But sure, let's all of a sudden give him one more chance.

    You can't. Have to find another player to build around or he has to mature overnight.
