Harden is too much drama when things do not go his way, he has PG13, Kawhi and Brody to help shoulder accountability now..... he has nowhere to hide in Houston. You take the good with the bad.... Even when his exit was ugly, people have sweet memory of him, by coming back and potentially ruining it, sounds like a Houston thing to do.... Just let him have his in Los Angeles.
Harden does eclipse FVV in pretty much everything basketball related plus offers contractual value nothing wrong with saying it. He would have been a better get, but Udoka probably couldnt reel him in the same way he can Fred. Too many thought that James would be here playing the Unguardable ISO ball, but he said it himself thats not who he is anymore and its on full display in LA. Premier shot creator for others and a deadeye 3 point shooter with serviceable defense. I just dont think James wanted to be here otherwise he would. Tilman would have made it happen for the merchandise return alone.
I think it was definitely a Udoka thing. James is the antithesis of a Udoka-molded player. Happy for James but a little gutted we couldn't make it work. Hope has a healthy season and a great post-season with the Clippers.
The team’s goals and Harden’s don’t match. It’s okay to let go. I really wish Harden well and hope he finds what he is looking for. He is in his hometown with other capable players maybe this is his legacy. I just hope he remembers to ware Rocket red in the HOF.
Harden would have paired well with the future Rocket West Lafayette Leviathan Zach Edey His dive to the rim speed matches Harden perfectly
Yeah crafty offensive players are a bad matchup for our Uber aggressive handsy defenders. I wouldn’t want to see the clips in the playoffs
He may choke but that Clippers team is putting it together. Hottest team in the NBA right now. If they avoid the injury bug and play us in the first round we would get dad dicked on every possible level. It would be traumatic.
Nope, just a reminder of what happened and what will continue to happen. All our defenders play super handsy on D. Harden absolutely feasts on those types of defenders, has his entire career. Now that the Clips look to have figured things out, what makes you think he would choke against us? Hoping he gets hurt or tire out by playoffs is far more realistic.
It's because 1) he's the best Rocket we've had since Dream and 2) folks act like a stupid, jilted ex-lover around him
Where did I ever say I think he'd choke? Reread what I wrote, realise you've read more into it than was said, then read it again and take the words literally. Nothing you've said changes my statement.
