Bruh, I miss Houston Harden. The Harden that gives us 30-40-50 and even 60 points! I've been watching him since 2014, the 1st time I saw him play really amaze me and since then I've become a big fan of him until now. Quite sad because another year/season has been finished and yet he still can't get the ring that he deserves. I don't wanna say it but it seems like Brooklyn and Philly Harden is out of his prime, injuries are coming, rules implementation, and he's ego to play for the team. I really wish he win a ring before he retires.

I don't, and I'm cheering for his downfall. His decline is deserved. After years of swindling and borderline cheating, the rules have changed, and he is a worse player for it. I'm glad his hamstrings are giving out on him and I hope they give out faster. So glad he hasnt won a ring, and I pray he never will. He underperforms in every single relevant game and always will. Born into this world a choke artist, a cheat, and a bum. Hopefully he will leave this world very quickly, with none of the aforementioned 3 having changed. Fuck James Harden.

One of THE best performances of this SEASON. Knowing we got a long SEASON ahead... still top 3 of the SEASON!
He was the only player who could actually mess with that super team GSW that season. Then the refs helped GSW to win. Fact.
time flies can't believe this was 4 years ago already i remember watching this vividly
