His shot has been off, struggling with injuries, he's still not a "scrub." Oh, almost forgot, the last two games Harden has been out, Lin has filled in with 18/8/5.
Rockets would be better off with Shaun Livingston or Darren Collison. Guy is not among top 25 lead guards
Harden blows? Any 25/5/5 NBA player does not blow. He's not the best by default because the other guys are old, that's crazy jibba jabba. And if you think he's a flopper, then Wade and Kobe are as well. I agree the SG position isn't what it once was, that happens in the NBA, in 10 years, hell maybe even 5, things could change.
You have to be kidding me. Shaun Livingston? Lin doesn't fit with this team period. The Rockets are well aware of this. He was going to be able to whatever he wanted when the Rockets signed him until... If the Rockets never traded for Harden, I'd guarantee you Lin would be an 18/8/5 guy EASILY. He may be going to the Celtics possibly along with Asik. If he does, and doesn't put up those kind of numbers, then I will suck your dick for 11 seconds.
That shit may be you guys version of spin the bottle at your job but I'll pass on that offer. If Lin goes to Boston I'm assuming it's for rondo? Rondo won't be a great fit in Houston either but I'm assuming he still does his thing. Because he's a million times better than Lin. I can't really take you seriously. Earlier you were attempting to convince me Lin is better than Kyle Lowry based on some random game.
Wade is a flopper as well, but not to the degree of Harden. Harden is the most shameless flopper there's ever been. And at least Wade was once an excellent defender. Harden is perhaps the worst defensive "star" of all time.
With him giving 15 minutes off the bench consistently, Indy has clearly the best bench in the league.
Damn xplosive sure hates harden I don't see it. Stockton, divac, malone, hornacek, ginobili, fisher, Horry. All much worse floppers than harden
I know they are in discussions with Celtics, Asik, Lin for Rondo. Not sure the Rockets want to keep Rondo, if they let him expire, they have the capspace for ANOTHER max player. I can't take you seriously either, you called the dude a scrub, and made a list of players that were better. Then he shit on most of them. Then you open your mouth about him again, and goes for 18/8/5 the next two games. I thought you learned your lesson, but this scrub player is making you look, well, not very smart. Lin with a triple double tonight by the way, that damn scrub :laugh11:
Let's see, the only reason you would call Harden a flopper is because of his FT attempts. The dude gets fouled while going to the rack, just like Wade and Kobe. Those two had seasons where they had as many FT attempts as Harden, some even more. Yet, it's all praise for the other too. Do you think they are more attractive sexually or something? Now you're questioning if Harden is a star because of his defense? Harden can play D whenever he wants to, just ask ZBO the other night, that's right, Harden a SG, shut him down. I can name many "stars" that don't play defense. That's a lot easier to do than you attempting to continue your weak as fuck argument.
Oh, your're a fucking idiot mouth breather. Just as I figured. Xplosive- "Jeremy Lin is shit" Lin get triple double that night. Now shut the fuck up and stick to being the forum's dumbass in boxing threads, that's you're true calling, always has been.
LOL. Somebody is pretty emotional. If you makes you feel any better Houston groupie, Dream is my all time favorite player. Not my fault that Harden is overrated, and Lin is mediocre. Virtually ANY guard in the league is capable of having a trip double at least once in their career. You should know that, simpleton. Terrance Ross dropped 51 last week. Does that make him a great scorer or star?
He's shooting 46% on the year. Would you like me to list all the ELITE Pg's that are shooting shittier? For the last time, I don't really even like Lin, I don't want him on my team, he just doesn't fit next to a ball dominate SG, but he's not a "scrub." Just say he isn't and we can stop talking about him.
Harden is rated at about where he should be, he's an all-star, not a super star. Whether he turns into one, is up to him if he can start bringing it on D every night. Lin is hated on, I just don't understand it, Neil calling him a "scrub" and you calling him "shit" when there are soooo many other NBA players that truly are shitty scrubs. I'm sorry I was mean to you, yeah I was being a fucking bitch, I love my team and I'm trying like fuck to quit smoking right now. Fucking ciggs.
Harden is elite. La boy. Top 15 player in the league. You can win with him. Lin will never be a major factor on a good team. Can he put up numbers on a sorry team? Maybe. Lots of guys can. Below average starter at the 1 the league.
You can win with Harden as a 2nd option, perhaps. Not as a first option. Kobe, Wade, Bron, Hakeem, Dirk, THOSE are guys you can win with as your first option. KD has yet to win a chip, but he's almost def good enough to lead a title team as the numer #1 option. Harden, not so much. Harden would have made for a nice second option for Hakeem on the 90's Rockets. But then again, the game was so much more physical back then, who knows how Softden would have fared.
The mainstream media makes Harden out to be a superstar. Although, that has died down. I didn't say Harden was garbage, but I maintain that if was years ago, he wouldn't be much of a factor. He's closer to the level of Michael Redd than he is to the level of Wade, Kobe, Mac, AI, and Ray Alllen, when they were all in their heyday.
