but that's typical stupid harden that's why the rockets aren't real contenders

man no wonder OKC didn't keep him it'd be like having two westbrooks

[teh b0lly!!1]

how come you got those teams that are just eternally tanking
like philly, or the bucks
even indiana got some playoff time the last couple years
i mean couldn't care enough to actually follow these teams so i don't know what's going wrong

since iverson had one of the worst teams ever to be dragged into the finals the sixers aren't even threatening the .500 barrier

[fuzzyroes]

That was the whole point. Everyone was angry that he left his home town for a big-time club... Which would only make him more celebrated when he returns home and transforms his home-team... That hasn't exactly been panning out yet though lol... But if they make the playoffs Lebron has a good shot at running the show.

uh, he tarnished his own ass.

What do you mean

[I'm Hardcore]

the way i've always seen it, is this:

scenario 1 - "thanks to the fans, but i feel it is time to move on"

scenario 2 - "i'm taking my talents to South Beach"

[I'm Hardcore]

i mean what kind of egotistical FUCK would choose scenario 2?

[teh b0lly!!1]

It was ugly no doubt

I'm not his biggest fan by any means, I think he's overrated but I do respect him for not turning into an ego monster like Kobe and staying, well, humble
Problematic choice of word I know

[teh b0lly!!1]

He's arrogant of course but I think the difference for me is that he grew into it, rather than being a perpetual inbred asshole
Being called "king" by everyone in the world since age 18 is bound to fuck you up and have a bloated ego. But for that he seems pretty leveled and I almost empathize with him for not knowing really how to deal with so much attention

[teh b0lly!!1]

Oh man I can't fuckin believe how it got away for SA

i don't think Lebron is overrated - he's an all-time baller, especially for this generation - but he is supremely arrogant.

you know Jordan was like 10x more arrogant. I'd say Lebron is less arrogrant that your average superstar

[Trotskilicious]

yeah

jordan's arrogance is evident with how he runs his basketball team like the tyrus thomas contract or drafting kwame brown

course everyone thought lance stephenson would work out so we shouldn't hold that against him

atlanta hawks are fucking awesome btw. pero antic for threeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

james harden is right

[Trotskilicious]

now that i'm on LP i'm getting a sample of the local commentators. i have found washington's crew to be good and i actually am really surprised at how good Dominique Wilkins is on hawks broadcasts

[teh b0lly!!1]

it's like he got a kobe off his back amirite?

[Trotskilicious]

that's what i'm sayin!

do you know he already has more blocks as a bull than carlos boozer did

[Trotskilicious]

both gasols are blowing up. international play seems to boost guys

[Trotskilicious]

or injure them tbh

goran dragic tho is getting back into it, he's a near superstar. his name is fun to say
