    Damn you! Don't edit my edits!

    And try to leave the personal insults out of your posts.

    That's life. If you set out to provoke someone, they will eventually react. But you're entitled to you opinion.

    Btw, that is still a differentiating opinion, I'm glad that someone cooled that fools jets. You think it was dastardly.

    What are you talking about? Trash talk is a part of the NBA and never warrants an elbow to the head. You don't like Harden, I get it. I don't like a lot of players, I don't wish them physical violence. It's just a fucking game *insert personal insult here.

    Sometimes when someone's opinion sucks it needs to be pointed out.

    Yeah, under normal circumstances, it's a regular part of the game. But like I said earlier, Ron Artest is a crazy son of a bitch. What did Harden expect a guy who changed his name to "Metta fucking World Peace" to do?

    Regardless, you act like Artest broke the leg off of a table and stabbed him in the heart with it. It was just an elbow, and Harden sold it like Paul Peirce and his wheelchair.

    I know that!

    That's the only reason I post in your faux "Around the NBA"/"Kevin Love-fest" topic.

    Again, there's nothing wrong in answering a question honestly or telling someone you disagree with their opinion. It's the personal insults that need to stop.

    I'm not trying to start shit with you, just explaining why I keep editing your posts.

    I didn't see Harden doing anything of note to Artest... So, what did he expect? Well, probably not to get elbowed in the head. You act like because he's crazy, it's okay.

    How about you google concussion and get back to me.

    Neither one of us were on the court, so it's hard to say what Harden did or did not do. I'm just going off of the past history of both of these players. I've seen Harden talk shit, I've seen Artest lose his mind. Those two elements are combustible. No, it's not "ok". But it was expected.

    Well, I hope Harden learned his lesson.

    Give me examples of Harden talking shit. I can think of one time and it was provoked by Kobe and he was the agressor. So now he talks shit on a regular basis?

    I suggest you watch more of Harden.

    I have seen him mouth off during several games, it's usually against teams that are considered top tier teams, like OKC is. Miami, Dallas and Chicago off the top of my head.

    Any specifics?

    I think you misunderstand being pumped after a good play for mouthing off. Harden's about as classy as it gets.
