But you claimed they moved him because he was a bad teammate. Unless they had a certain DeLorean why would they move him because he was not a bad teammate but he would become one?
I never said the thunder moved him because he was a bad teammate, didn’t happen. I said the warning signs were there and that is why they weren’t going to give him everything he wanted.

Lmao, the stuff I said about his time wirh the thunder just added to the discussion. If you can’t agree that based on the last 3 years alone that Hardsn is not someone you would want to trust a whole lot then good luck with that. He’s a piece of shit, has nothing to do with his time in OKC, nothing.
and you did it again.

Once again you say OKC traded Harden because he was a piece of shit....but it had nothing to do with his time in OKC. You've doubled down on this.

I think it is pretty clear that the Harden Russ fit was less than ideal.

Everybody fits with KD.

OKC chose Russ and perhaps they chose wrong. Bad teammate or not, I think Harden/KD/Ibaka would have made the team better than Russ/KD/Ibaka.

I think it was clear that OKC wasn’t going to pay all 4 long term. Which meant either Russ or Harden had to go eventually.

No, you're bitter simply because he's a former Thunder player that became elite after he left OKC. It's the prime definition of being butthurt.

And like I said, I don't agree how he ended things in Houston, but it wasn't very dissimilar to what Kobe did to the Lakers in 2007 when he demanded a trade. Only difference is the Lakers know how to deal with superstars and ended up making the right moves and decisions in order to keep him happy and in LA.

That was a long time ago. I know how I feel, you don’t. Trust me, if Harden was on the Thunder I would not watch. That is the truth. He is not watchable, and honestly has never done anything but let teams that count on him down. That’s the truth of it.

From what I can remember, and please correct me if i'm wrong because I haven't actually researched this, but Harden was given an extension offer back in 2012 which he was willing to take but requested more time to consider and the Thunder wanted an immediate answer or they were going to trade him.

No one that thoroughly read what I said. The comments about hardens time in OKC was just added because there is a lot of local talk around here that Presti basically predicted the issues that Houston ended up having with him.

I don't like the way he plays either but you're hating on him for other bullshit reasons.

And how did he let OKC down? Or the Nets so far?

Exactly right, and this backs up what I said about the team preferring to move on without him. I’m not saying harden did anything wrong in leaving the thunder, never have.

Presti predicted how Harder was going be behave almost 10 years later?

You literally said HE WAS A BAD TEAMMATE

And now you're saying "he didn't do anything wrong"

Want me to pull up the quote?

To refresh everyone’s memory, Presti chose Ibaka over Harden is basically what happened. Ibaka was a decent player but he never developed like they thought he would.

I don’t believe I ever said he was a bad teammate in OKC, didn’t mean to anyway. I said it’s not debateable that he turned into one in Houston though. I stand by that.

It’s well known that OKC made a token offer not caring if he accepted or not. You don’t just become a horrible teammate overnight, there were signs.

I’m not saying harden did anything wrong in leaving the thunder, never have.

Those two quote are literally the opposite. So which is it? Harden didn't do anything wrong, or there were signs he was a horrible teammate?
