James Harden this week after joining the Clippers:
I’m not a system player. I am a system.
It’s a great line. Unfortunately for Harden, I think you need a few things to win an NBA championship: skill, chemistry, and luck. Doesn’t seem like he’ll ever be on a team with all three. 🏀
@manton having seen his many all-star quality years in Houston and combined with that statement, it’s probably his fault he’s never won a championship. He’s great in many ways and hasn’t always received the credit for the work he’s done, but he’s always wanted it his way and that’s not how you win.
@jmuscara Wonder how things would’ve gone if he had stayed in Houston. Fans loved him there. I wish we had more players stick with a team even if they never make it all the way.
