Fuck Hardin

[gnadfly]

Multiple reports are out that James Hardin wants an immediate trade from the Rockets because the "governor" of the Rockets made public his support for President Trump. Just outrageous. Supposedly Hardin want to go to New Jersey/Brooklyn whatever they're known as now.

[Fizley]

Maybe they will trade him to Cleveland or Minnesota?

Have a friend on the inside. Hardin asked ( not demanded) they keep the coach - gone with minimal effort to keep.
Hardin insisted they keep Gm - gone
Hardin demanded they trade NO bigs but they started shopping Covington behind the scenes - had enough. Told Russ what they were doing with Covington ( whom they both loved) and now Russ wants out.
The house of cards is falling apart but because of basketball operation-decisions only.

Thank you. You are 100% correct. It's also the reason Daryl Morey left. He said he needed some time off with family, and then he got a job with the 76ers a week later. The problem with the Rockets is Tilman Fertitta. Just because you are a great businessman doesn't mean you are a great professional sports franchise owner. Tilman is quickly becoming the Bud Adams of the NBA.

You may be totally correct but that's what is being reported.

In todays Social Justice Warrior world what is reported is the truth.

According to a new report, Harden, Westbrook and other players are revolting against the Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta’s political preferences. It’s allegedly the reason why both have requested trades and why several of their teammates remain deeply unhappy.

Note the source.

Don't be so hard in on Tilman. His restaurants have lost millions, or billions during this year. How many millions, or billions, does he have left ?

[500sl]

He has plenty left. It is his cow, he can milk it. So, I agree, Fuck Harde

[Tex2000]

Let’s realize that this is a business at the end of the day.
We the fans see it in a different perspective. The owner has a right to do as he sees fit., the Rockets in this case. If the player (Harden) is not happy with such new changes or whatever the case may be; he also has the right to look for a new team.

If harden is traded to another team, he will make his money and he happy.
The owner will also make his money whether Harden sticks around or not.

A percentage of fans will be not be happy to see Harden leave the Houston Rockets.
The other percentage want to see him leave; others won’t care.
Each will have to do what’s best for them business wise.
We the fans will have to deal with the final outcome.

Happy holidays.
Feliz Navidad ya filthy animals

Any one who has come in contact with Harden knows he is an ass hole.He has run D Howard, CP3 and multiple coaches out of town. CP3 and him did not mesh because CP3 wanted him to move the ball and Harden wanted isolation which will never win a championship.

Guy will never win a championship he would rather be out partying at strip clubs than trying to get in shape like Lebron.

[DEAR_JOHN]

Hardin is talented, but he's a POS.


If I'm owner, I'm pissed off that he's 'demanding' a trade, then I'm even more pissed off because he's trying to pick his team.


I would trade him to the worst team in the Eastern Conference if I could get something good for him in a trade.

"Let’s realize that this is a business at the end of the day"


Wait, it's not a business. The team belongs to the Houston community, and we love them so much.


....but wait.....it seems like we don't get a say in what happens....so how can they belong to us...maybe they really don't belong to us.....maybe it is all just a marketing ploy to get fans to pay and pay and pay....and taxpayers to pay and pay and pay

Harden traded to Nets. Word is Harden and KC talked about it months ago.

The Rockets finally traded James Harden on Wednesday afternoon, securing a whopping eight future first-round draft picks and swaps from the Nets in a four-team deal that also includes the Pacers and Cavaliers, according to various reports. The trade sends Jarrett Allen from Brooklyn to Cleveland, and re-routes Caris LeVert from the Nets to the Pacers via Houston, with (exhale) Victor Oladipo going to the Rockets.
