Stephen A wants any big free agent to go to Miami so he can hopefully be there during the post season. Sole reason.
Like he cant go there whenever he pleases. Dont believe him thats not the reason
@φωτης μπατζιος It’s a huge part. He’d be down there to cover the finals. He’d be there for days at a time. I’d hope for the same thing. Who wants to go to Milwaukee for work ? Lol
Bring reporters from Greece to cover Milwaukee ..We start to hate the sun in Greece 250-280 days we have sun …..
@Michael Gonzalez who wants to go to Philly? But he didn’t have a problem with them getting harden nor does he wants them to lose their stars.
@φωτης μπατζιοςI’m sure more would wanna go to Philly than Milwaukee but at the same time Philly’s a bad city outside of tourist spots so it’s a lose lose😂
The one player who doesn’t need to be in Miami whether he plays on the team or not … is James Harden lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Harden would skip training camp for the strip clubs in Miami
@John Meraz he’d probably do both lol
😂
AGREED
Miami is the LAST place he needs to be.
Stephen A. Smith just wanna go there to enjoy Miami.
Send his a** to the Wizards or the Pistons.
Harden to Miami? What about “Heat culture”? You think Jimmy is going to put up with Harden’s BS? That’s a horrible fit.
Who shimmy butler lol
Bam is more valuable than Jimmy if harden goes there your lack of basketball iq is crazy …imagine thinking Jimmy wouldn’t want the type of guard he’s been begging for
That would be terrible
Players like Harden much more than “fans” do. They understand what he brings.
I’m happy the media is starting to speak facts about James Harden.
We ain’t that desperate for Harden they can keep him we’ll settle with what we have in Miami and accept a play in exit
Honestly y’all don’t need much to begin with like yall made the finals like twice within 5 years if anything you just need players to play better during the finals
@Roy Joneson god. Super solid squad.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Who’s we
I’m not a James harden fan but the fact that nobody corrects mad dog when he says he never been to a finals is crazy
Not as the lead dawg, he hasn’t. 🤷🏻♂️
@John Brown the ProphetThat’s not what Mad Dog said though. Hating somebody is not an excuse for lying IMO
@Juan Sanchezboohoo it was 11 years ago and he came off the bench, easy to forget. Even tho he was a no show that finals and every postseason after that lol
@Teddy Penderazdoun you just made all of our points that he was in fact in the finals 😂
Also he was 6th man of a year that season and logged the 3rd most minutes by a big gap in that finals so not sure why you said he came off the bench 😂
@Teddy Penderazdouni could tell you watch basketball (sarcasm)
Talk about Pat Riley not putting up with Harden’s mess, imagine what Jimmy Butler would do.
Harden would leave the gym in tears every day. 😂😂
Harden got no time for Jimmy? Harden is wanted at a Miami Strip club or in Las Vegas.
😂😂😂
James Harden used to live down the street from me as teenagers and none of this during his career surprises myself.
Do tell….
🍿 tell us
👀
The fact yall fell for that bs
@Chief Zwhat y’all think these dudes were born walking on water. He did have a normal life before the NBA
I’ve never seen a franchise messing it up so consistently over the course of several years. The 76ers could have had it all but, they passed on Tatum choosing Fultz instead, they could have kept Butler, instead they decided to go with Harris, they got themselves into a amateurish dead road twice, first with Simmons and then with Harden. Incredible. The final stroke will probably be Embiid rightly asking for a trade to go play with Butler in Miami or in New York.
Embiid is sus as a locker room presence. Idk how valued he’d be. Massive ego
Don’t forget wasted high picks Noel and Okafor
They also had Jrue and got rid of him
The US sports media care more about drama and headlines than actual athletic pursuits. This makes James Harden the goose that lays the golden eggs.
