    Lebron never quit on his team with two years left on his deal.

    KD joined the 73 win Warriors after they eliminated him. It’s what these guys do now. Lebron was never able to get it done by himself so he formed a big 3.

    No...it didnt make him happy. That was very clear with Durant. He won and nobody saw him as the best player in the league. That's what made Durant leave GS to begin with. And for me....no I woulndt want to go play with Lebron. I want to beat Lebron. Look man you and I are on the same team..but that one line by Cyber really just sickens me. That's so anti competitive. All I can hope for is that it wasnt his first choice. But that is the kind of thing that makes me lose respect for him as a ball player(not as a person). But you know its whatever, we are here stuck on a sinking ship.

    kD? Or Lebron? Lebron and bosh at least both signed as free agents to join wade. Kd joined a multi ring super team solo. Players legacies are beholden to the fans. If fans knock Lebron and kd for ring chasing, maybe down the line players won’t do it. It wasn’t a common thing before Lebron. Only guys at the end of their careers really chased rings by free agency. Rarely did they force trades to join super teams. At least not that I recall. We as fans should “punish” players that do this with boos, lower jersey sales, and general online commentary that notes how their chasing hurt their legacy and ranking among greats. Maybe it does nothing but in today’s social media and connectivity to players it surely would impact the thought process of some players. I think harden is one of those players that is concerned abt his reputation when he leaves the game. He is is wagering that a ring will cover for his current cowardly behavior.

    Harden told friends yesterday that he was envious of what the Lakers have. He saw how much fun they were having and it really got to him.

    That is obvious to Rockets fans who aren't busy giving him a reach around.

    I get that sentiment but unfortunately this is the nature of the modern NBA player. We can expect better but it’s not realistic.

    Was this before or after he requested a trade there?
    It clearly worked with KD. But LOL Lebron has fooled everyone into thinking he had the same level of talent on his teams that he went up against, not the case.

    the pregame suckfest is explained. Beta Harden exposed.

    Boogie giving him an earful before the 3rd quarter HAD to be about that.

    Can you Rephrase the last point? I don’t understand. You’re saying the teams he faced weren’t that good? And that Lebron has always played it up like they were?

    his team did come back 1-3 against a 72 win team
