    Yeah, I'd talk like that too if I got 20 million. Clearly he wanted money and was not going to take a discount. One of the worst contracts of the offseason, but I guess we just have to take it. Welcome Ryan, stay healthy ;)

    As a player that shoots 3's and doesn't play defense that comes as no surprise.

    Equivalent to, "I as a ****** can't wait for two piece Tuesdays at Popeye's."

    Positive thread? Ban delusional homer OP.

    :grin:

    Thanks for posting. I wasn't a huge fan of the signing, but I'm looking forward to seeing what he can do in MDA's system. Should help the offense a good deal.

    That's good news, but still, why the **** did he want that much money?? That freaking contract will prevent us from getting at least 1 more quality player

    my question is if he was already so eager to join red nation why the F did we have to give him $20M for 4 years guaranteed??? surely with no state income tax, potential china money, a coach who won't make him play D, and playing with beard we could have sold him better......were his other suitor the kings offering $24M??

    No just telling the truth. Just like a lot of us have been saying alLseason Harden gets these guys wide open and they don't knock them down. Some how on this board it translates to "its Harden's fault". I just saw someone blame Harden for Corey Brewer sucking just a day ago, lol. How does Harden make Brewer miss wide open shots and dribble the ball off his foot, LMAO.

    I hope that Ryan Anderson also can't wait to play defense.

    LMAO @ Clutchfans attacking the guy before he has even played. No wonder the media doesn't respect us our own fanbase hates us.
