    Wow. Calling people idiots is all you have? You don't seem to have the level of education that would allow you to call people like that. You talk about nonsensical and non sequitur examples of the Warriors players who, unlike the Rockets with Harden, won several championships. You should use whatever brain you have before you post because this last one was totally nonsensical. And you don't own CF so who are you to tell people to stop posting here?

    It seems this chaotic organization didn't make enough wrong moves.

    Which is why he’ll be offered a 4 year max, he will set up the young guys all game then turn on the scoring if needed in the 4th.

    But we don't want him because he's a, you know, quitter, choke artist.

    That's like the first tweet of an NBA statistical milestone since LeBron broke the scoring record that somebody didn't have to write an SQL query or use an LLM to discover existed.

    I mean scoring title, i get that. Assist title. I get that.

    Kudos Harden. Kudos regular stats

    Harden is using us for leverage for Philly to give him
    The super max

    he treats basketball teams like his strippers

    You would think that, but history with James says where there is smoke, there is definitely fire.

    IDK why, but I really believe Harden might be interested in coming back. I just don't think there was really any ire from either side when he left, and I can believe he has a lot of fond memories from playing here. I also believe him when he says he hasn't made a final decision though. We're just going to have to see how he feels in the offseason. We'll also have to see how the draft lottery goes and if any better trade makes itself available. A lot up in the air from both sides on this one.

    If we have to overpay someone, I’d rather we overpay the second greatest Rocket of all time … who is still elite and fills a position of need … over alternatives like Kyrie or god damn FVV wtf lol

    How would you compare that with NBA teams treating NBA players? Why does this forum believe in this one way street where players owe our city respect but the org doesn't owe them sh*t lmao

    Yeah, but Giannis was the first player in NBA history to average precisely 31.79228 points, 12.252 rebounds, 6.13928 assists, 2^1.7 steals, and 3.888 blocks without fouling out in the first 7 games after the All-Star break in an odd-year season.

    You gotta respect that!
