He was done with his mail and coffee. He is a pro. Is he supposed to cry? Do not some regular people go fishing after a bad week at the office? |

if he cared and if he could work on free-throws and get to 70% he'd be winning multiple titles |

Harden also claims the dubious honor of being the most consistent flopper in the league. Not necessarily the most dramatic, that would be Chris Paul. Harden looks to be fouled more often than he looks for a good shot. He's also very good at playing "Dwyane Wade hero ball". |

They're both irritating, but Howard has the ability to be an all-time great and he's above average. I get the sense that he would rather do anything other than basketball. He's a pussy. Jordan would have hit him several times if they ever played together. At least Harden cares about one side of the ball. |

Hell yes. He's a better player. A player can only have so much value when he's a chucker and absolutely does not give a shit about one side of the floor. |

He doesn't give a fuck about defense and unfortunately defense is important. He lets his man beat him every time and reaches in halfheartedly. He's an immensely flawed player. Even more than Howard. |

The Rockets biggest flaw is their defense, their perimeter defense to be exact. What does it tell the rest of the team when one of your top 2 guys is giving that kind of shit effort? Right now he does not have the makeup of a guy who can lead a team to a championship or even an appearance in the finals. |

You can find videos to support pretty much whatever opinion you want on NBA players. There are videos of Howard being bad at basketball and there are videos of Harden hustling and playing his ass off. As I said, Harden has issues, He takes a lot of plays off on D. But I will take him and his issues all day long compared to a baby like Howard. |

His effort is lackluster, his own damn announcers criticize him for it. Howard has flaws but I don't see them as being as severe. His on-court track record is also better than Harden's. Harden was in a perfect role in OKC. He didn't have to be the guy or even the second guy. He also got to against the opposing team's second unit. |

The majority of the criticism directed at Dwight is because of off-court shit. I'll take that any day. I understand that a lot of these guys are pampered assholes, and Howard certainly is that. The on-court problems that Harden has experienced is a bigger problem for me. Howard has led teams before. Harden hasn't led shit. |
