    So if Harden refuses to play will Mauri dock him pay like Ben Simmons and Royce White?
    That would be something...

    Adding Harden to this team with a legit starting PG to play next to screams championship contention.

    Yes, if you mean the 2019 version of Harden.

    No, not with the 2019 version. That version played PG. This version will play his natural position. SG.

    Harden led the league in assists so not only is he a legit point guard he’s actually the best one in the entire league!!!111 Pairing him with the MVP big = Championship! The second coming of Shaq and Kobe! Oh wait…. Never mind just another 2nd round exit. Just like adding with KD and Kyrie was going to be trouble for the rest of the league and the best trio ever formed.

    You’d think Harden has 5 rings by now from all the bs his fanbois say/believe until he unceremoniously flails out ever May. The dude is a certified bum and he’ll never be a true contender.

    I get personal joy from telling you delusionals how it ends before the end of every season (2nd round fodder) and watching you dummies fall for his shiit year after year and then getting upset at me. “WTF”!!! Lol

    Now that he's not a Rocket and probably never will be again (unless he comes for some vet minimum farewell tour off the bench in a few years) would it maybe make sense to stop worrying so much about the dude? He's gone, they told him "no thanks" as you wanted.

    Harden probably gave his mom a poor tip at the strip club

    Harden is gone, and he's not coming back here.

    I love Harden, still my favorite player until the next one. But he needs a ring. He left for that reason, and we let him go for that reason. Lets keep it real, Rockets franchise is not going to be the ones to enable Harden to get that ring. We know for sure that Tillman wasn't going to spend the cash he needs to surround the core players with the necessary talent for a title run. We saw that happen w/ Ariza, CP confirmed it, and it was the end after that.

    I want Harden to get a ring, he's not going to get one here.

    The Rockets won't get a ring until we do a proper rebuild. Unfortunately, that rebuild is being constantly kicked down the road.

    Ha! Typical Harden fanboi comment. Trying to make things personal for predicting/pointing out Harden’s shortcomings/failures. I own all you losers.

    I said it in jest as a dumb joke about Harden's strip club tendencies, but you are absolutely right.. I crossed the line with that and I apologize. Sorry about that, shouldn't have made it personal by bringing in family. Won't happen again.

    There have been studies and essays written regarding people like this. Hating a team, a player, or supporters of either. Just another random thing someone can have a mental disorder of.

    Anti-fans are people with clear dislikes.1They are people who, for a variety of reasons, hate or intensely dislike and have strong negative views or feel-ings about a certain text, genre, or personality (Gray 2003). This chapter looks at a particular category of anti-fans:

    With this starting lineup
    VanVleet
    Harden
    Brooks
    Smith
    Sengun
    he'll have a good chance at winning one ring.

    He just flamed out in epic fashion 2 games in a row with the MVP on his team. It's about the 7th time he's done something like that in the playoffs. Does that factor in at all to your opinion?
