    If Harden was babied by the refs in 2018 or 2019 much as D-Wade was in the '06 finals he'd have a ring by now.

    Shooting 39% from the field but getting 25 FTA is great as long as you have good enough marketing.

    Do you understand the difference between playing well in a losing effort and playing poorly in a losing effort?

    so who would you have traded harden for a guaranteed chip in 2018? CP3 straight up?

    He had plenty of chances to beat them. Did you forget Rockets lost games 1 and 2 by a total of 5 points in 2015. Winning even one of those games in Golden State would’ve changed the complexion of the series. He had a chance to win both. Instead he fumbled the ball away and made critical mistakes in key moments down the stretch. The narrative and history could totally look different if he was able to come thru. Instead of Steph Curry and the Warriors getting all the accolades it would be Harden. He had his chances… he never came thru.

    He has no rings either way. This organization didn’t build a team good enough win a title. This franchise had won one playoff series in the 15 years prior to his arrival and hasn’t won a title since 95. You guys must hate every Rocket not named Hakeem or Moses because they’re the only ones that led a Rockets squad to the Finals.

    He lost to a better squad. Period. The Warriors were better. They Rockets weren’t favored in any series vs the Warriors so how did he choke? The favorite won

    what part of the league wasnt gonna let harden beat the warriors do YOU NOT UNDERSTAND... they were marketing curry hard back then, harden should have won mvp, but they gave it curry because he is lightskin

    plus it seemed like adam silver had no issue with anthon davis teamming up with lebron, but as soon as harden joins durant.. they wanna adjust the rules.. foh

    I didnt write this article, someone else did. But this author was correct, harden been up againist the league mafia since 2015

    “James Harden doesn’t stand a chance to win the MVP,” a college professor on the West Coast proclaimed in his class when I visited his school in 2015, referring to Curry’s closest competitor for the award. “He’s too dark and ‘too black

    I don’t buy this for a second. They NBA has had stacked teams for years and it was the Warriors time. It had squat to do with skin color, that’s just silly.

    Gtfo of here with your racist conspiracy theory bs. Always playing the victim card for Harden. I get it… he’s your hero. Don’t try to make it into something it has nothing to do with.

    If he came thru and won the Rockets would be considered the better squad. If he came thru Harden wouldn’t be considered a choker. If he came thru Harden might have a ring. If….
