players have way too much power. Contract needs to have clauses, and when u're taking actions as if u're not under the contract, u do not get all the money and u have limits with signing with your next team in the nba.

harden is a chocker who houston fans tried to talk themselves into loving, and one of the least deserving mvps ever

he is the reason houston is lacking success

if i was houston, i would tank next 3 seasons, bench Harden and not trade him... he can go and sign whatever he wants after 3 more years

If Giannis, Kawhi or Lebron did this, and were seen at a strip club partying leading up to it... they would get crushed by fans/media.

OKC could have 2 lottery picks in this loaded draft if this Harden saga unfolds like i expect it to.

Except tanking this year would be really damn bad for Houston. They will give the pick to OKC if it lands outside the top 4. They would have to completely bottom out, like the worst team in the league to keep it.

I’m tired of hearing about this guy. His game was already gross to watch. Now his actions are just angering. This is wrong on so many levels.

In defense of Harden he has all the reason here. You don't fire the GM, gut the roster and then all of the sudden expect him to still show up. Trade him. Doesn't have to be to BKN, just unload him off the roster and be done with it. Trash organization.

You shouldn't expect him to show up just because he doesn't like moves the management has made? I'm sure he expects to get paid. Why shouldn't he show up?

Who cares about these stupid work outs? Not me. We're talking bout practice here fellas.

Can you go to strip clubs with the new Covid Protocol?

If it isn't allowed, how soon do you guys think will Harden get fined?

My guess is that the Rockets are still working on a trade and this is just the angle they're going with to ensure they don't lose leverage.

Lol. Rockets can always just suspend him I guess. Isn’t the owner bleeding money? That’s one way to save $40 million.
