This.

I don't think he's as big a douche as he used to be; but I still think he's a POS that can go F himself

James "Top 25 in the NBA" is 1/10 in the first half vs the Lakers.

I can't stand this dude, love his game but can't stand the way he acts.

He's on the fast track to becoming my least favorite player.....he also has 2 teammates well onto that list as well. Not a big Celtics fan.

James Harden, 3-19. Top 25 player.

The sad part is, the Heat are still going to win the title. I thought the Lakers would have a shot to dethrone them, but they've blown since day 1.

he had an off night but he still put up 15 points grab 10 rebounds and 6 assists. Made a lot of critical plays down the stretch to help win the game.

Pretty pumped about this for Charlotte. Down here most people hate everything about the Bobcats name and who it's affiliated with (Bob Johnson, previous ownership named the team after his nickname "Bob-cat"). Vintage Hornets gear apparently sold close to the same amount as Bobcat gear in recent years. The highest attendance games are when the group "Bring Back the Buzz" holds an outing where their group wears all Hornet stuff to Bobcat games.

MJ already said he'll entertain the idea of renaming the 'Cats to Hornets. From a business/support perspective I don't know why he wouldn't. It'd definitely rejuvinate the fan base.

Volume shooter =/= good player. Sorry, he's top 50 at best.

He will end the year around 44 to 46% shooting percentage. For a guard that's not a chucker.

He is definitely forcing too many 3s right now, taking way too many contested 3s. I would like to see the rockets use him more in a pick and roll with him and parsons or him and asik.

I still say we should compile a top 25 list.

I'll start one tonight when I get home. I will come up with a list of 40 players or so and make a top 25

The better question is, how long until the Rockets have Harden coming off the bench?

That's because you are foolish and stubborn.

Look at the plus minus numbers for last night when harden was on the floor the Rockets out score the Lakers by 3 points. When Parsons or asik we're on the floor they were out scored by almost 20 Points.

I absolutely love watching Parsons play definitely the second best player on the Rockets

There is a reason harden got a Max deal and asik got 8 mill a year

Well the purpose of the league is to win championships and Parsons and Asik are championship pieces. If I want to watch a player chuck 30 shots up a game, I'll just get an AI highlight reel on loop and save myself the time of watching the NBA.

Prove they are championship pieces. You like to ask how many rings harden has. How many NBA rings does asik and parsons have?
They are both really good at their jobs but let's not discount how good harden is playing because you don't like him.

After you watch AI highlights,you should watch harden a little bit.

Better defender and much more efficent scorer.
