    Pippen is a b****. Harden has been to the playoffs every year as a rocket with almost no help. Has had top team records in the league, he’s been matched up against an all time great team and he’s knocked for it.

    Pippen is a nobody without Jordan

    Of course you would put Giannis anywhere close to Harden's level. :rolleyes:

    This needs to be tweeted to ESPN, TNT, CBS, Greenberg, Woj, Lowe, etc.

    Would love to see the response.

    Cracks me up that Gipenis would choose Kemba over Harden because of passing, considering Harden is averaging over 2 assists more per game than Kemba.

    So Giannis has always been an instigating b****.

    The punk in him was always there.

    Yeah I don’t normally get to taken by this “narrative BS” even though it’s been pretty lame watching the character/game assassination that ESPN has continuously trotted out there for headlines sakes the last few years, but this this developing war of words now is a refreshing to see Harden stand on for himself at this point. He said always been a pretty chilled dude and rarely fights back, but I think the one has gotten him pretty bent for obvious reason, there just was no real good reason for Giannis to be a douche bag the way he hasn’t been recently. It’s clear he is pandering to the ESPN crowd, who knows maybe he is being goaded into it, but the dude is being an ******* now and i hope Harden destroys him next time they play. One thing I disagree with In what Harden said was that juts being 7 ft you can dunk and need no skill, I don’t think he meant it quite that way though because there are a metric ton of 7 footers in the NBA who can’t do half of what Giannis does.

    When did Harden have a 3-1 lead on Golden State?
    Giannis on the Rockets would be favorites in the West??? Seriously?

    This is why I never watch these guys?

    Truth:
    • - Harden is highly skilled and physically blessed (deceleration). Giannis is physically blessed and has some skill (footwork)
    • - Harden has failed in the playoffs. Giannis has failed in the playoffs.
    • - Harden didn't show up in key games and moments against the Spurs, Clippers, Portland and Warriors. Giannis didn't show up against the Raptors.
    • - Harden's supporting cast talent wasn't as high as the teams he lost to in the playoffs: (Dwight Howard vs Warriors, injured Chris Paul vs Warriors, etc.). Giannis' supporting cast talent wasn't as high as Toronto.
    • - Harden lost an MVP to Russ because most important player on winningest team didn't matter. Harden lost an MVP to Giannis because most important player on winningest team did matter.
    • - Harden is unstoppable, unless you take the ball out of his hands and make the team beat you. Giannis is unstoppable, unless you crowd him and make the team beat you.

    How to shut the haters up:
    1. Get a talented team and coaching staff around Harden (we have a shot with small ball now, but it may not be enough.
    2. Don't go MIA in the playoffs. When fouls aren't going your way, keep driving. When threes aren't falling, surprise them with an inefficient 2. 2 pts is better than 0 pts.
    It's questionable if we have no. 1 this year. No. 2 is within Harden's control.

    Nichols and ESPN if not orchestrated the feud, they are surely taking advantage of it.

    Proud of James for striking back, he knows he has to back it up too. Just sucks that Nichols got the exclusive, hating trend jumper that she is.

    Harden shouldn't have given her the interview.

    Demand Nick Wright and only Nick Wright... :D

    Media: Rockets are not contenders. Lakers or Clippers are coming out of the west
    Media: If James Harden doesn't win a championship he's a choker
