    Agreed.

    Everything you listed was the earthquake that set it in motion the Tsunami that was the CP3 for Westbrook trade which of course toppled everything in its wake... and is still currently drowning the organization.

    Yup and let me preach "LOYALTY!" while I take a giant **** on the fans who are the reason for their entire existence. That's why "I" as a fan am always loyal to my TEAM because the TEAM is forever (usually, FU Bud!) and players come and go.

    Let this play out, a picture does not tell the whole story. Hopefully by Monday, we will know what’s up

    So he's claiming loyalty while not showing it with his coaches and teammates?
    Is PJ that dumb or can this be another thing?

    I think most superstar players mistakenly see their fans as caring about THEM more than about the TEAM. Harden doesn't think he's screwing the fans over. On the contrary, he thinks they'll follow him to his new team.

    A player speaking well about his new coach, then the next day exposing him / disrespect him publicly by not traveling with the rest of the team?

    If Harden comes back and dominates all the way to the postseason all trade talks go away. John Wall may drop some nutz on this franchise depending on how he plays. I hope so.

    I could see how dumbasses like Harden could think that way.

    How many games has PJ missed in his 3 seasons as a Rocket?

    Zero.

    So when that team takes your loyalty for granted and never does all it can to in a championship how long should you continue to be loyal?

    What loyalty does the team owe you.

    None, but I can avoid attending, avoid buying merch, I have the power in the situation. Put the team on notice and when they step up, my TEAM is there waiting for me, there isn't a NEW team or NO team. Not that hard to understand big brain.

    It is a 2 in 1 deal. PJ trying to convince Harden to stay long term and both get extensions

    I tend to agree.

    I'd love to know where John Lucas is.

    Management and ownership should have an agreement with them.
    Tell them they will be traded together but until next year. We need to at least try this year out. they have good players and a good coach.
    Tell Harden to give his all and have another mvp kind of season. That way they can get the best Harden trade value in return.

    If the team sees they won’t fit and it won’t work, they can try to do the deal before the trade deadline. Tell them No more drama and to give it a chance. If by the end of the season they still want out. Promise them they will be traded to philly. That they will do that trade as long as Morey is willing to trade Ben and a lot of picks.

    If they won’t agree just send Harden to the kings or idk whichever team has the best deal for us. Sent tucker somewhere else too but not with Harden.

    I have no idea what this is but at least you said it with your chest, amirite?

    It's very hard to understand.
