    Heck of a deal for the Pistons. Jackson, Kennard, Stanley Johnson, Blake and Drummond isn’t bad though weak in the backcourt on D as Jackson is Swiss cheese. They would do well to swap out a guy like Henry Ellenson who was a high pick a few years ago for a reserve wingman and PG.

    The Heat cannot let up.. We are 1.5 away from 7th place and not far from 8 after that. The schedule softens up a bit coming Feb but we need to build a bit of room for the inevitable let down games. This roster guarantees nothing and it is scary. I want to see pink and turquoise in June.

    Miami should already be in the 3rd seed. The Kings and Nets (x2) losses are egregious if you want to be a top tier team in the conference. We also probably should have beaten the Bulls even though they're playing well given their roster.

    If they did, they would be the 1 seed in the garbage east. You remember how he beat up on your team about a week ago, right?

    Yeah good luck with that, he isnt going to give up 40 million. He will show up to court on a wheelchair until he is eligible for a buyout

    James Harden is 9-13 vs. the Heat in his career. 5-6 in Houston.

    I honestly dont see how any player in the NBA will ever sign with the Clippers after the way they used Blake Griffin. They did a whole presentation and crap in the offseason, assured him that the clippers is his team now, but secretly they always had in mind to trade him. That was a dick move.

    Obviously players are still going to sign they want the money, but i dont think a notable player would. Theyre going to be overpaying scrubs from now on.

    Okc Harden doesn't interest me. What is Houston Harden's record vs LeBron-less Heat? 4-3

    *No shame in losing to the GOAT (Bron)

    Every post of yours includes some asterisk to explain away Houston's mediocrity.

    Even with the caveat you provided he is still barely above .500 against our rebuild roster.

    Rockets losing to the worst team in the league at half. Juggernaut!

    Fraud contenders.

    No Chris Paul, Eric Gordon, or Trevor Ariza. All out with injuries.
    Harden is going to win this one by himself.

    The Heat lost by 7 to the Magic already this year. :huh:

    Aww they need to be 100% to handle the Magic?

    Again, I acknowledge the Heat are not a good team. What is your point?

    Meanwhile, your homer team (GSW) just lost by damn near 30 points to a bad team. Oh, and they were at full strength.

    What a night!!!! Lol

    What about him? Is that your favorite player or something? Maybe the Heat should sign him.

    I heard their commentator call Harden CP3 and Ben Gordon a “big 3.” That **** was hilarious.

    Whoops Eric gordon

    This is Harden's 9th 50+ point game. Only 8 players in NBA history have more. Again, what is your point?

    I don't need luck. Your squad proves every game how mediocre they are. They can barely handle the Heat and Magic. But I'm supposed to believe they will beat GS 4 out of 7? LOL
