Harden is a black hole baw.

He is the only player I can remember that can score 50 in one night and STILL LOSE.

Or Ramona was right about Kawhi doing shite tests.

Obv the Lakers have failed horribly at that, but I sincerely doubt that is really going to factor into anything.

Maybe you need to keep up better.


LINK

In summation

Harden, 9 50 pt games, 6-3 w/l

Rest of league 13 50 pt games, 6-7 w/l

In summation hardwn has half of the wins in 50 points games. And nearly half of all 50 point games league wide.

It is easy to see why his closest comparison is goat Jordan himself.

League sources have confirmed to me that Kawhi has officially ruled out the Phoenix Suns. He spoke to Sarver's goat for an hour last night. Wasn't an easy decision. Sources also tell me to expect a decision sometime today, tomorrow, or maybe one of the days after.

Good morning WBB. Let us not forget your link that you posted 3 days ago and when you still thought the rockets were getting jimmy butler, attempting to prove he is currently a top 5 player in the nba.

The same link that shows James harden isn’t a top 10 player.

And the same link that shows Chris “no longer good enough for to be part of a super Team” Paul as a top 2 player.

Except they aren’t though WBB. Nobody talks about the heat or the warriors or the Celtics or the lakers or the bulls titles being discounted.


Good discussion.

I think the super team titles are absolutely discounted/asterisked when considering an individual players legacy, eg. Durant, or LeBron and kawhi if they become Lakers teammates.

From the overall team/franchise perspective, I don’t think the titles are viewed with less merit.

Exactly. Super team titles are discounted for the individual players, not the teams.

Durant clearly would get much more respect had he won titles in Okc. That goes without saying doesn’t it.

Sources are telling me that Doncic and Porzingis have a strict full adidas jumpsuit rule for the locker room. Kawhi's endorsement deal with New Balance will not allow him to participate. It was never going to work out.

Damn, was getting hopeful but that is strong no-no. Board man can't get paid if he reneges on New Balance so that makes sense

does LA signing Troy Daniels for 2.1 affect their ability with Kawhi?

He's a minimum signing. It doesn't affect the cap

Looney for 3/15 seems strangely cheap compared to some of these other salaries (Jordan, Rozier, etc.)
