    Where is that one knucklehead that was talking about tanking around a month ago? That’s the only thread about tanking that holds any water.

    I look stupid about what? Harden has to score 40 points and do everything every game in order for his team to have a chance to win. Give all the credit to harden, he saved the rockets season.

    You do realize that harden literally carried this team right? You realize cp3 has been a shell of himself all season.

    If you actually think this team is good, then maybe you’re the stupid one. Without harden, rockets wouldn’t even come close to making the playoffs.

    I’ve said this in other threads, my frustration have always stemmed from Chris Paul’s lack of production, he’s clearly lost a step, and when your second best player can only get you five points like he did against Toronto, then that means harden has to do even more. 5-10 points from cp3 isn’t going to cut it in the playoffs.

    Lol no. If anything I’m taking the W. Harden having to average 36 ppg just proves my point, this team just isn’t that good.

    Give credit to harden for carrying this team all season, this team was done, harden wasn’t having any of that and he decided to put on his cape and carry his team.

    Every game is dissapointing having to see harden have to score nearly 40 points just to win.

    And it’s disheartening to see cp3 only get you 10-12 points a game. Harden needs help.

    Finally, I never said it was feasible to tank. Look at the lakers, no one would’ve ever guessed that a team with Lebron would be tanking either.

    Good. I want to see more from him. The only great game he’s had this season was against the warriors, and those games are few and far between.

    You can’t say he’s been great coming off a five point game.

    This is too funny if you ever wanted any proof that a dude doesnt watch our team play hahaha. My man is saying he never said "it was feasible to tank" while posting in a "Tank for Zion" thread that he made. This is next level stuff right here folks.

    Time is truly a flat circle.

    Good Lord... This is very idiotic... Just own that you were DEAD wrong.

    CP has been playing damn good since his return.. 16/9/5/2 on good efficiency.

    We've dealt with numerous injuries and we're a few games out of the two seed...

    We're 9-2 against the top 5 teams in the league.

    No CP in the Bucks loss
    No Clint in the Nuggets loss
