    Missing first week of practice with your new teammates to build a rapport for birthday bashes during a pandemic is never excusable. Stop sucking his dick.

    The longer this goes the worse and worse Tilman looks. He’s completely ****ed this team. Loser.

    How about having some accountability for the big boy with a 40 million dollar salary?

    Or is he a....

    Of course it isn't......they should fine him accordingly - this is their own doing by making him the all powerful OZ, Harden himself is the reason we got Westbrook - if he doesn't like playing here too bad he signed his contract.

    The org should just be uncomfortable for a while, this only hurts Harden.

    Didn't know the Utah Jazz were some trash team or the Blazers for that matter.

    Has KD ever made it out of the First round without significant help? Let's not forget all of the amazing games Russ has had during OKCs height...

    I'm not trying to excuse Harden at all but whats fair is fair, we can't sit here and act like Harden is some ultimate winner and Russ just loses and loses. Let's admit that there were many times where we needed more from Harden and didn't get it.

    First, I don't know that Harden said that... but lets assume he did. I am sure there is some degree of exaggeration..... but when you have so many quality people jumping ship (MDA/DM/WB/JH) that tells you it is REALLY bad.

    James should be here but at the end of the day it all stems from Tilman being one of the worst owners in all of sports. He’s to blame.

    I think the Spurs series was terrible. At least Russ goes out with effort, Harden at times lokos like he's indifferent to the result.

    Honestly, the last OKC series was disheartening to me. Great players, great offensive players, don't let some rookie make their name off of them like he did Dort.

    Jordan invented reasons to embarass his opponent. Hakeem took it personal that Robinson won the MVP over him. Duncan would tell Popovic to give him the ball just so he could school someone that he thought slighted him...but for a whole series this dude Dort made his name and career likely off of guarding Harden. Every game I kept thinking, and yall can look back in the Gameday threads...I kept thinking "Oooh, Dort gonna get it tonight fellas! Harden gonna destroy this dude..." yet all it culminated in was Dort having his career night on Harden.

    He listened to his boy Harden for the one trade that started the snowball rolling with Westbrook for CP3. Harden wanted it.

    I'm 95% certain that when Harden said "I know exactly what we need to do" was licking out CP3 for an "upgrade" and that upgrade was his buddy who's game is not compatible at all with Harden.

    Tillman let Harden be LeGM and it failed.

    This has been debunked many many times. Harden was perfectly fine with CP. Tilman pushed Morey to do it. Please check your facts.

    Even in 2018 against GS look at his scoring efficiency numbers. That series was close because of defense.

    People would have been more sympathetic to Harden's playoff short comings if he had amazing games on close out games like in San Antonio but his team failed around him.

    You mean the 'Playoff P' who had title contender Clippers going out in the 2nd round?

    If you recall he had a shoulder injury and someone can correct me played like one good game that series for OKC. People continue to overrate Playoff P here because they think he's the perfect fit but I imagine him getting hate once he clangs a much needed three off the side of the backboard.

    Maybe he can whine some more about his low NBA 2k rating and get that raised at the least.

    DUDE HE HASNT BEEN A WINNING PLAYER FOR YEARS. His MVP season was the last time he was a winning player. Why you are now ignoring facts made by reporters man. Cmon dude......we are getting into "fake news" territory.

    His overall impact was that of a first option player though, that is what you arent getting.

    By that logic then harden going out against the warriors is ok. They were far superior then us. And Russ playoffs against the lakers was very playoffs P like

    It was worse than anything Paul George has ever done on both sides of the ball.

    I guess you need to define "winning" as I think that's where the disagement is.

    Because Westbrook has never been on a team below .500 and always makes the playoffs.

    Playoff series? If that's the bar ya, I don't think Westbrook has won a playoff series as the best player on his team.
