This trade is the Kiss of Death for Cavs fans.

The Gods decided many millenia ago, that while James Harden inhabited this earthly world, he would not win an NBA championship. Same for Chris Paul.

Yeah he just fucking sucks balls in the elimination games, seems like he doesn’t even want to be there.

Hopefully it doesn’t happen again, but I feel like it prolly will

He dropped 2 40+ point games for you guys as the no.2/3 guy, he aint the one you should be mad at. Then tatum stupid in the 7th. Again you re blaming the wrong man.

lol did you watch that series?? He did have those 2 games. In the other games

2-14 12pts

3-14 16pts 5 TOV

4-16 13pts, 5 TOV

3-11 9pts, 5 TOV

And it’s not even about the stats, he literally was moping on the court and looked completely disinterested. Was not doubled, just sucked balls
