a lot of people will remember when Gina said he would pick someone else over harden for the all star game bc he wanted someone who would pass the ball.

Then after the game Giannis said that his team was trying to attack whoever harden was guarding. foolishly and predicatably, going at the leagues best post defender with the game on the line resulted in an L.

Now, hardwn responds:

ESPN just posted an interview James Harden did with Rachel Nichols. Thread of Harden's comments: About Giannis: "I wish I could be 7 feet and run and just dunk, like that takes no skill at all, I gotta actually learn how to play basketball, how to have skill"




More

The context= Rachel asked Harden about Giannis' comments in the all star draft. Here's Harden's response to that: "I average more assists than him (Kemba), I don't see what the joke is. I don't pay attention to stuff like that. I just know non of them can mess with me"

I think this started with hardwns comments that he should have won mvp, followed by in the first game of the season Gina shot an airball on a three and harden threw his hands over his head and ducked then laughed at him.

Giannis def don’t wanna come across harden in a dark alley, or south central LA.

So how sour are you going to be when Giannis runs away with the MVP again over Harden.

Well Jim, i wouldn't call what you did "learning how to play basketball." What you learned is how to manipulate the rules of basketball and play the game unlike anyone else, and it has led you nowhere b/c you can't grasp the concept that it takes a team to win a championship, not 1 guy trying to do everything, but congrats on the individual accolades Carme... i mean Harden.

don’t care. Harden ok the trade of capela knowing it would hurt his numbers but help his guy russ. Harden is a leader he makes sacrifices to benefit the greater cause.

Giannis ain’t a fighter bro Giannis is a cheap shot guy. Have we forgotten what he did to mike dunleavy a few years ago.

Man that would be really fun to see these two guys go against each other in a finals. If Houston can add an alpha, maybe we could see it in the next few years

At heart Giannis will always be the guy who will take a cheap shot when he is getting it handed to him. like what he did to duleavy. He don’t want beef with someone who came up on the streets of south central.

Best post defender in the league at 6’5”

Gets fouled more than anyone and still plays more minutes than anyone year in and year out.

It should go without saying that he is the toughest guy in the league, or in the conversation at very least.
