I've stated, repeatedly, that I am tuuuuuuuuuurible at comparing players from different eras.

I know Russell is the greatest winner in NBA history.

But, was he a better player than Durant?

More accomplished team accolades doesn't equate to being the better player.

Was Garnett better than Barkley?

That's a really hard one for me.

If Kyrie is serious about ball and winning a championship he gets a vaxx and he plays ball. And if KD was serious about winning a championship he slaps Kyrie around and talks some sense to him. So yeah. Harden was lied to. He had every right to say fuck your Mickey Mouse bull shit and get me out of here.
He is just the type that would refuse the vaccine.

"The earth is flat." LOL

I think KG was better than Barkley. More complete player.

For trolling purposes, I see no issue at all with this.
The fucking moon bat telling the world we need to respect the opinion of people who think the vaccine is a push by Bill Gates to make them robots is not unprofessional but the dude who says fuck this and bolts is unprofessional.

I wish we could have got KG to pair with Kobe. That duo would have been sick.

Quit on him is strong. Can we go with “failed”. CP3> Westbrook> John Wall. That shit wasn’t working and Harden wasn’t getting any younger. It was time to go.
Devils advocate because I remember this situation very clearly, I lived it.

He asked for the Paul trade.

He asked for the Westbrook trade.

He's as culpable for those situations as LeBron is with the failing Lakers.

Well then, if it was on a podcast...lol
Well, it was an interview with Morey. It sounded like Morey but maybe it was just Russian disinformation. I didn’t get the FBI to do any voice analysis but maybe I should. I just took the sports podcast at face value.

He asked for A Trade which became the CP3 trade because that’s all they could make work. And then it actually worked despite having two guys who were ball dominant. CP3 isn’t for everybody and him railing on Harden about his man boobs (still funny to me) made personal shit bigger than basketball shit. CP3 works in Pho because who is not gonna defer to him on that roster? Same in OKC that one year. But each pairing after CP3 got worse and worse.

Haha! My man! We listened to the same pod. I’m not talking shit right?
Morey - I said all along this should have been a three team deal with Nets Houston and us a year ago. But now James is where he wanted to be.

Also….I’m coming to realize that Morey likely didn’t have the leverage I thought he did in the Harden/Simmons deal. I just assessed it from the standpoint of Harden was going scorched earth and he had to get out. If it gets done in the summer with a Harris salary dump and Harden FA signing Morey would have been fucked on tampering. It sounds like he has been in conversation with Harden and his camp for a long time.
