    I personally don't get it either, but one of my best friends is a huge Haren fan. I should mention he has been playing BB for over 30 years and watching the NBA since the early 90s so it's not like he doesn't knoe better/actual basketball.

    We've had many disputes around Haren and there is no reasoning with him, in his opinion he's a fantastic player and Houston a joy to watch. I should probably also add that this friend of mine thinks Kobe is not even top 20 all time, which in itself should speak volumes about his other qualities as a human being considering we are still close friends lol.

    Well I would of considered his opinion null and void after he omitted Kobe from the top 20 haha.

    Nah, dude's great, even if he doesn't understand his favorite game at all lol. Educating him is my personal challenge.

    On a more serious note - I am pretty sure there are a lot of people outside of Houston who like what Haren brings to the table, especially very young fans. People like records, he breaks records. Many people don't give AF how he does it and let's be honest, the current generation of youngest NBA fans hasn't ever seen what good defense looks like so this side of the floor doesn't mean squat to them.

    I find this to be fascinating story. I think this will be more and more of a thing going forward, these Gen Z kids are like this, moody, want things their way only, we’ve seen it a lot more in the last few years I’d say with Durant, Kyrie, plenty of smaller name guys, and we’ve also seen anxiety manifest more openly with players like Kevin Love.

    Disgusting. Even LeBron stopped flopping. Is anyone else in the league still doing it egregiously? How about CP2, he was always amongst the best of the worst .... errr ..... worst of the best?

    Disgusting? totally? But I'm also disappointed that the clip is so short and includes barely a few "plays". With the amount of flops Harden produces on a daily basis, there should be tons of material. Guess nobody cares enough to make a full-time movie about it. Such a shame, it could be used as educational material for fans, or some of them at least.

    Warriors are currently down 31 to the Suns. I don't know which is more surprising. Going to be a crazy year.

    I am not surprised that Warriors bad,maybe didn't expect them to lose any game in a blowout ,but knew that they are not going to make a playoffs
    P.S Curry is injured
    Steph Curry has headed back to the locker room with an apparent wrist injury. He's done for the night.
