Now, I find Colin's hot takes to be the hottest of the hot takes that ever was, but that did get chuckle out of me too

In other news I'm looking at the lottery odds and can't even enjoy us losing. Adam Silver has doomed Knicks fans to basketball purgatory.

5th pick here we come

He’s the best player of his generation. Hitting THAT shot over THAT team? Forget it. /OnlyTheHottestOfHotTakesAroundHerePartna Sent from my iPhone using Operation Sports

Harden is the best OFFENSIVE player in the NBA. He's not the best player OVERALL in the NBA though. James gets that status because he plays both ends of the court at a MVP level. I will say as of right now Harden is by far the best offensive player in the game though.

I can agree with you on that but can't agree with you on MVP the past few years. Harden has probably placed himself as the favorite for MVP in 2018 now but James is still the best OVERALL player in the league. That's my opinion.

I will also say that Harden has improved as a defensive player. Plus, the Rockets really don't want "The Beard" to use up his energy on defense because of his offense that can individually take over games.

If I said what was going through my head on that Kevin Durant out of bounds call, I'd probably be banned. Nice game, nice game winner.

Isaiah Thomas does not appreciate Spurs Fans booing Kawhi last night:

It's really not all that complicated or that big of a deal. He forced his way out, some fans didn't like it so they booed. IDK why people seem to be shocked by that or act like it's a big deal. I'm sure there are plenty of fans who are on the opposite side of that spectrum and have nothing be appreciation for what he did when he was there. It's completely reasonable to see why some would be mad and IT's example is a ****ty one because fans get mad at the teams as well. Just look at King and his dislike for the Bulls management.

I cant (but can) believe that's even a thing worth writing about...

Him & Danny's tribute video was dope though.

Have you watched LeBron play in the last 3-4 years?
