James Harden will never be the same as Kobe, Michael or Lebron those people took full responsibility when there team was loosing..not started blaming but putting some extra work...

L!VEFromHOUSTON:

I hope boogie sticks around long term. The way he has matured in the NBA & the spectrum of the NBA he has lived is impressive. He’s literally been a franchise player, traded, hurt/injured, came back from major injuries, came off the bench, ect ect...

Boogie is a solid guy. He always ride for his teammates.💪🏾

Boogie must've had some therapy, he sounds very therapeutic and genuine. Maturity is fitting him well.

Bob:

James Harden is a complete joke lol he doesn't play defense.. The only reason he scores so many points, is because he takes tons of shots and gets fouled all the time when he drives.. He might win a championship because of Irving and Durant, but he could never lead a team to a Championship

OnSumShit:

1:54 “...showing up the way he did” I think he talking about James showing up looking fat af 😂

This was a good interview for Boogie. Not a Rockets fan but I wish him and them nothing but the best when they aren't playing my team.

STAMPEED Lifestyle:

He’s giving it to them raw and uncut so they shouldn’t ask him no more questions about this no more.

On One:

I respect his honesty but he does kno he signed wit Houston weeks before wall was traded lls

Christopher Lowe:

DeMarcus is speaking FAQS 💯💯

Peter MaDash:

I remember when Boogie was "disrespectful" to Isiah Thomas years ago in Sacramento too, saying "the ball is gonna move more." He can dish it but can't take it.

Wade Hill:

media keeps trying to start beefs. Good job Boogie!

pekanpi:

The irony of a player named Harden, when he's the softest player in the NBA, is too much. Good luck nets! Lol

I like the way he answered those questions especially the last one.

Jazz Monty Music:

I thought he was dope on this interview. Truth as imho

Syne Onez:

I'm glad they're being honest about the whole situation

conch .:

This man sounds so much more mature than I remember. I am glad to hear him talking like the leader of the team. Let’s go Houston!

E R:

Harden knew he was gonna be shipped to Brooklyn the next couple of hours wanna make things clear before leaving the team.

Zage13:

3 years back, john wall and boogie would've been enough for any team to make the playoffs..

Nathaniel King:

When this guy who was james harden in the past, is the voice of reason.... 🤔😂😂😂

jaelzion:

This is a good, thoughtful interview from Boogie! Even with the zinger about wanting to play with John Wall, LOL.

Chuck-300 Da Realest:

Harden handled this very unprofessionally. Houston shoulda traded him to the worst team in the league.

Andy Sanchez:

Cousins did this interview like a professional he is! I respect him. Hope James Harden loses all the time to the rockets! He won't have no chance with the lakers baby!!!

C. Walker:

Has anyone introduced Cousins to Toby Nwigwe yet? I feel like some good things could result from that.

s p:

My interest was playing with John wall
Cousins signed first

Steven Lee:

Imagine Houston winning NBA Finals without James harden?

Andrew C:

Imagine he got traded to the nets tho. Would be pretty cool

Philly God_215:

He not not feeling Houston as a whole it’s not about them 💯

Otto Fetting:

Imagine Harden walking into the locker room after throwing his teammates under the bus.
Harden will never wear the Rockets uniform again.

Leo Dunson:

This is the interview that got James Harden traded lol, and it worked in his favor thanks Boogie

Paris.:

The rockets just need to sit harden until he’s dealt.

Juan José Serra Domínguez:

One of the most honest interviews I have seen in a long time.
Demarcus Cousins answered in a polite and sincere way, great.
