[@nolan3832]

Tim Cuffman because the grizzlies are in danger of missing the playoffs completely. The Rockets aren’t. Two starters are missing significant time and btw they got smoked in this game. They have Zion and the Pels three games behind them with 20 some games left. They’re not sitting pretty like Max is trying to tell you they are. Harden played 25 minutes total, none in the fourth quarter because the game was over by halftime and still had 30 and 7. It’s absurd that’s it’s even a topic and they were right for not even entertaining him with an answer.

[@nolan3832]

Goatin Aroun rockets aren’t losing homecourt advantage buddy

[@nolan3832]

They’re only talking about it this way because ESPN flexed this game into prime time before Jaren Jackson Jr and Brandon Clarke were hurt. They knew it would be a blowout with the grizzlies missing two starters so they needed to drum up the interest during the day. That’s it.

BlockedByGinobili Headass not really.. he choked 2012 and 2017 vs spurs that’s really it. And he’s been playing the warriors and at no point has had a fair chance at beating them.

Then the expectations went from them having to chance to fans expecting them to win but I look at it as a testament to everyone’s respect for harden.

bro max be saying they need to win more cause there spot in the playoff matters not that if he loses it makes him a bad player. The only reason max brought up poor performance in the playoffs was to emphasize the importance of seeding, which this game is important to win for better seeding.

[@donniewokington5055]

Kevin Giles no he’s saying previously before this debate he’s always disrespects Harden Harden the best SG in the 2010s

[@tikoizzzasu3281]

Stephen A. was so ready to yell he doesn't even understand max's argument

[@TheSupersi86]

I agree with this. Max's biggest issue has been that he thinks on a different level to most sports analysts. Sometimes its good and othertimes its bad. But he has a very analytical mind and generally keeps his heart out of it

[@swagchomp]

simon bagnall highly doubt that.

[@blockedbyginobiliheadass8612]

Thank you Max. Keep spreading the truth about that perennial playoff choker Harden people seem to forget who he is.

[@peterstark4562]

This is more important to the Rockets for 1st to 2nd rd. home court advantage. Memphis or Pelicans will be swept by either LA teams in the 1st rd.

[@AaronSmith92]

Clippers won’t get the 2nd seed

[@ASTROPLANET13]

Harden-Westbrook slander 💉 My veins

[@ayooitztjay854]

Harden need to worry about not choking in the playoffs

[@Jay-fc9mk]

If Rockets get 2nd seed or 1st D’Antoni better get coach of the year and Russ better be in that MVP conversation

[@cosovic14]

Hahaha

[@ayandazulu4206]

It's a bigger game for Ja. The Pelicans are coming for that 8th seed and consequently Zion for his ROY. The rockets are gonna make the playoffs regardless. This is gonna a blowout. That small lineup is scoring at will

Harden needs to win first

Why is this a topic

[@Luiiciano]

James Harden gotta come up big in the playoffs to change the narrative around him

[@Eagles2020]

Hector L. Feliciano he averaged 35 against the warriors last year

[@Luiiciano]

BG2013 doesn’t really matter if you don’t win. Nobody talks about how much MJ averaged in series against Celtics or Detroit or the Magic when he lost. If you are that guy in basketball you got to get your team over the hump

[@myjeeaccountsmh2625]

@@Luiiciano how does it not matter? The topic is about him choking Do you even know what you're talking about? People say he chokes in the playoffs but he averages above 30 against one of the greatest teams of all time? How is that choking

[@Luiiciano]

My JEE account smh choking is about moments. Not series. In every big moment, James Harden has come up small.

[@hughhefner5348]

@@myjeeaccountsmh2625 because in KEY MOMENTS he was non existent. Hes a high volume shooter who always has the ball in his hands. He will easily have 30. But he wasn't scoring those points in the key moments
