    I wanted to get Dwight when it was an option, but now I'm soooo happy that blew up. The wins would have been great, but cheering for a team led by that d-bag would stick in my craw.

    What a blessing to get someone with Harden's skills and attitude.

    If we get those two guys, we would have to rename our other players too:

    Jeremarcus Lin
    Jamercus Harden
    Chamarcus Parsons
    Omercus Asik

    I guess Marcus Morris wouldn't have to change his name...

    What if the next superstar we're getting wants to change the city too? Hopefully they can co-exist.

    Great article. Harden may someday--maybe even this year if he keeps this up!--become the #1 shooting guard in the NBA. And that's a great position to have a superstar in, with the way today's game works.

    It's always best to get them BEFORE they become #1. :p

    If only we could get Josh Smith to help the Rockets. That would be a solid team that could contend for the western conference.

    T-Mac comparison is actually valid... the ORLANDO T-Mac that is. Remember back when T-Mac got out of Vince's shadow and led the Magic to 7 games against #1 Detroit? I certainly don't mind that out of Harden.

    The problem was that T-Mac got paired with Grant Hill, so they had no capspace to go after other guys. And if Morey can't get Harden a complementary star in some way, and he pouts like T-Mac in 4 years, I wouldn't even be able to blame him. I would blame Morey for wasting the best years of Harden's career on a mediocre ballclub.

    Man...as much as I love your game, please don't overuse your body.
    You are the GEM.
    You are too good to be missed.
    Both Lin and you should lead this team to another level.
    I know Lin is not ready to lead this team and he is not 100% in form yet.
    BUT 42 MPG w/ a 32.4% of USG% is quite overloaded.
    I'm so worried about your healthy even you are a pro, not like me, an nobody who were playing stupid amateur soccer games as a injury prone.
    I don't want you to be T-MAC 2.0
    Let Lin to help you more. That will be a better idea.

    Vat?

    How can you know what McGrady (or Harden for that matter) said to his teammates privately :confused:

    Harden is the man, and the city's already changed!

    However, both he and lin need to be smarter towards end of tight games regarding help defense, and not give easy 3 to their men.

    Let's go there in 4 years time, if need be. It's been less than 2 weeks since Morey got us Aldrich ... I mean Harden :grin:

    But, isn't this a good time to celebrate Morey, not blame?

    Some people ...
