Skip Bayless goes all in on James Harden

He is a quitter. Simply a loser. The face of everything that is wrong with todays NBA. Impossible to root for.

I’m getting really sick of talking heads like Bayliss, Cowherd and the like taking advantage of players and giving nothing in return.

Half their takes don’t even make sense and are full of contradictions.

Some of these videos of Skip get less than 1000 views, lol. Man saw the Dallas analist go viral about Harden and decided he, too, wanted some clout. Pathetic human being, made a career on hating.

I will listen to anyone who is criticizing Harden after the stunt he did. It may not be relevant, so I might not post it, but Harden deserves whatever criticism comes his way.

I mean the dude literally paid a bunch of strippers to hold up a F Morey sign in the hopes he would get traded and threatened to show up out of shape so he would be unplayable but still could get gamechecks. Dude is not a good person I understand how LAC fans sort of have to defend and be fans of him but how anyone else can root for him I dunno.

lol instead of Harden he should focus this rage on his "semi-retired" part-time teammate with a super star contract

This is ridiculous guys.

Harden led some strong teams in the West and had some all time great offensive seasons.

I think LeBron and maybe Steph have warped people's expectations of ageing players.

Harden led a team to nearly beating the KD warriors..

Without the dynasty Warriors he's likely in 2 finals and wins 1 ring.

I don't want to choose a side here - both Skip Bayless and James Harden can be pathetic at the same time.

Without the dynasty Warriors he's likely in 2 finals and wins 1 ring.

Imagine the narratives around Curry, Lebron, Harden, Durant if it was Lebron v Harden in those finals.

Lebron probably has 5 rings and 5 FMVP
Durant likely assumes the Harden choker label
Curry sits outside top 10 all time, and possibly around 15ish
Harden, if he does win those Finals, pulls off one the biggest playoff runs in history, and suddenly has a career that looks much more like Dirk’s then people would be comfortable to admit.

Only thing he is right: some players make it hard to root for them. I think Hardin is one of those guys. He **** up his own legacy big time. Heck of a player nonetheless

He's just bitter that Harden was better than his boy Kobe ever was.

Screw talking heads, parasites is a great word for these low lifes.
Screw entitled multimillionaire athletes like Harden.

In that order.

I didn't watch the video. it seems like it's at least a year late, if not several years late.Harden is a very old vet with no superstar expectations at this point.
