I feel like Harden got a lot more respect on ISH in 2012

[Mr. Jabbar]

I'm not personally a fan of his style of play

no one is

[Le Shaqtus]

Because I like watching basketball, not free throw shooting contests.

Milbuck joined this forum. That's what happened.

When Dwight joined him in Houston, a lot of Lakers fans that were already hateful jumped on the Harden-dislike bandwagon. It's all just accumulated from there.

And he gets to the line a lot, which seems to bother people.

Milbuck joined in 2014.


-- OP:

He was respectable in 2012... Came off the bench for the Thunder, always gave key contribution and hit plenty big shots in their series', such as stealing game 5 @ San Antonio in '12.

Then he went to Houston in 2013, and he became a pathetic ref-baiter.

[RRR3]

Whoops I meant 2013

I know why he was more respected on OKC (less spotlight played harder on defense, etc) but I feel like he was at least acknowledged as one of the better players in the league his first year in Houston.


Also I remember people complaining about his fts even back in OKC.

[Asukal]

It's the way he plays that rubs people the wrong way. Add his terrible defense and his ugly beard and you get the worst star in the league. I definitely dislike him for that ugly ass beard.

[Legends66NBA7]

I never liked him.

As for the hate from the rest of ISH ? That beard, man... Seriously, when he's sleeping someone needs to get a trimmer and shave that shit.

15 FT per game



thats what happened

[hitmanyr2k]

His first year with Houston. What happened to change this?

I didn't like him even before that. I enjoyed watching him go down in flames in the 2012 Finals. The refs swallowed their whistles on his bullshit flopping in the Finals and his game was a wreck. He was the main reason OKC lost that series.

[Brizzly]

His game is not aesthetically pleasing to add to his excessive flopping.

[Richesly]

The way metta elbow'd him took the fear outta him. He ain't scared of any kind of foul. He's deluxe.

[IncarceratedBob]

He's boring to watch, no skill to his game. Don't hate him tho

[elementally morale]

Ugly game. That's all. When he played with Durant and Westbrook, he didn't have the ball for too long stretches and was a lot more entertaining as a sidekick. As a first option and primary ball handler he is boring.

BTW, Ariza looks a lot better as a complimentary player, too. His game as a first option isn't as ugly as Harden's though, despite being less effective.

[Yankstar]

Now he has the entire orientel Lin *** as after him like Asian posters like milbuck, kunfu joe, orabbus and other salty Lin fanatics. Lol. You don't want to those tight eyed *** as on ya tail.

Funny as f**k > racism
