I think Harden is genuinely disliked throughout the league... I think the superstars in the league see his game as influential... and it's like that until they're guarding him, they get a couple of tick tack calls and are sent to the bench early... I'm sure that pisses them off to no end... pair that with his playoff performance in games of note, his antics this week, flying cross country, partying, telling his team and teammates "I'll be there Sunday" then popping up on IG in a strip club throwing money at bitches... all of that adds up and just makes them dislike him even more... and all of that is justifiable and rests solely at the doorstep of James Harden.Sidebar..
Is anyone NOT a little surprised that the market for BOTH Westbrook and Harden is/was rather..
lukewarm?

As for Russ, his is more with the media vs the players... all his teammates go to bat for him saying he's one of the best teammates they've ever had... but the media paints this narrative of him and that's what is seen by upper management... so they're reluctant to do anything where he's concerned...
I honestly feel that it's a lot of cats that if money and careers wasn't on the line they'd run up on him for the fade... Lebron on the Freeway, top down, masked up... everybody else following the rules and this nigga in pictures in large settings people all around no mask in site throwing money at hoes...^^^^^

Harden BETTER BETTER BETTER NOT get covid or any of his teammates catch in the next few weeks if he attends practice.
He will be DONE
and I aint even talking about NBA.
Jimmy Butler>>>>>>>>>>>>
Yeah Simmons gotta be in the trade from Philly. If not it's a no go. Plus because it's Philly I think Tillman won't do it because of Morey being there.
Brooklyn trade even with them giving up everything the centerpieces (Levert/Dinwiddie) are either too old or not under contract past this year. The trade package they were offering was trash juice so I'll pass.
Milwaukee in interesting but Giannis likely headed to South Beach or out west so Harden would be right back at square one if he went there. Plus you can't really forget the comments they made about each other... can't see them working out and not having a little animosity brewing just beneath the surface.
Miami you summed up perfectly. Butler aint putting up with Harden shit, Riley probably don't think he'll buy in, night life is too tempting there, and it'll hurt them too much to get that trade done, as it'll likely include Bam plus picks and another key role player or 2.
Honestly, Harden is stuck... instead of signing short term contracts heavily slanted towards the player like Durant or Lebron he went for the big payday and signed extension after extension. Now he sitting here pissed looking at 2 more years before he even hit the player option.
This is his own doing.
Tillman comes across as stubborn as fuck. That mufucca wouldn't piss on Morey if he burst into flames in front of him, so he'll never send Harden to PhillyHarden has his mother as his acting agent... He needs to get a real agent so they can give him a reality check about his desire to go to a contender.
Every day this dude and his camp is leaking out shit thinking that will help Houston get rid of him. I like what Houston is doing by not trading him for 40 cents on the dollar. If any team wants him they better be giving their star in return along with some assets.
I also like the pettiness of Tillman not entertaining a trade to Morey lol. No way he'll help Morey who burned off on him and let him get Harden too lol.
That's too much imoHeat/Rockets fans...
Y'all making this trade?
