True. Remote working is so common now - maybe I was wrong to assume that for an online media job - you can live in a small market.

He is such a good player...and I really enjoyed watching him play. Very high-IQ player who just makes the right play over and over. Sad this is happening to him. Hoping somehow he is able to return in 2024-25.

I do like that In-season tournament games count as regular season games as well. So, if you don't care for it - it's still a reg. season game. Should be interesting how players take it. If they go harder than a normal reg. season game - I think fans will come around. If not - it'll be a flop.

Good news is he's young, bad news is he's probably still gotta rock those s**tty Big Baller shoes.

Harden's mouth costs him 100k

This is absolutely fair.

Dude is lesser than, and stood on the shoulders of, the giants that preceded him.

I'm no fan of Harden but Harden is arguably a top 5 shooting guard in the history of the game. If he stood on them shoulders it's bc he climbed on them all by himself.

Yea I think Lavar is a great dad but worst thing he did was force Lonzo to wear that crap. Not sure if that's how he was injured but it was such an unnecessary risk.

Harden is the beneficiary of the watering down of the game in the 21st century. Did this guy ever play defense?

Having lived to see Jordan play, he is the standard that all other shooting guards are judged by. I stand by my statement.

There's a lot of speculation that's what f**ked up his ankles. When you are having to constantly switch out shoes (reportedly as often as every quarter, lol) because they are falling apart, that's never good.

Having lived to see Jordan play myself as well as 90s basketball - it's hilarious you think league is watered down now.

Yea it was never worth it. Really hope he's able to come back healthy.

Harden would be lucky to crack the top 15
