Jerryd Bayless was a **** to Giannis when they were teammates, Giannis dunked on a dude last season and ran past the Wolves? bench and gave Bayless a non-consensual high five. He's not quite MJ levels of petty but it's there.
Wait ... what?
I've never heard of this. Are you sure it wasn't just some Rockets fans or the Rockets organization that did this?
I could see maybe the Rockets organization wanting to sooth Harden's ego by doing this (I recall seeing Morey in interviews arguing for Harden's candidacy) but not Harden himself.
