Look at this pic of Harden from 3 years ago. Look at the shape he was in. Unrecognizable today.

I still blame Harden more than Kyrie. Even though I blame them both.

Kyrie on the court has still been very good for the most part.

Harden has just been trash. For no reason.

Eventually Kyrie will be able to play full time. What about Harden? Will he ever be good again?


The question is when Kyrie will be able to play full time. Our only hope is mandate gets lifted. What if not? Then Kyrie will be able to play full time next year maybe? KD will be one year older.

Harden with the right attitude, motivation and system(shooters & rolling big) is still very good, maybe not last year's good, but about 80-90%.

Last night's Harden was the Houston Harden before the trade who did not want to compete at all. His effort level was all time low. Harden on one leg in the playoff can still give you more than 4 pts. He did not even want to try last night. (Nash should have sit him).

Anyways, we are going through one of the toughest if not the toughest times during the big 3 era. I hope we hang on in there. Donot let what you see on the court cloud your judgement. Especially the talk of Ben Simmons and Harden trade, Ben would not be playable in the playoffs at crunch times. It would be so easy to game plan us if Ben was on this team. Hack a Simmons was basically how Hawks won that series being down 2-3. Not only does he not have a jumper but he shoots lower than 50% in free throws. Of course, we can flip Simmons for someone lese but there is a reason no contender wants to trade for him other than the likes of Kings etc.

Yeah. I don’t know what’s wrong with Harden. He definitely deserves some blame. But some people are on haters level. Like calling him bum and whatnot. I mean, really? A bum with 23/10/8?

Now let's see what we have:
1. Dumb coach, addition by subtraction here.
2. Harden who clearly have 0 f*** given and just collecting checks, counting days apparently too.
3. Narcistic Dunnigan Kruger who lives on flat earth and can retire after this season.
4. Iron man Joe who rarely miss games most likely out for a season. Him going to Indiana for second advice, yup he won't be coming back this year.
5. Marks/Tsai and KD that been quiet.
6. Patty who clearly looking gassed out with load he had to carry.

We not winning sh** this year, way to many things to overcome. They way Harden been playing and talking, dude is out. We might just give ourselves a favor and pull Ben/Maxey trade and call it a day.


This is just the beginning. Kyrie and KD situation will be another thing that'll come up this off-season.

Yup, it's over without even starting.

Yep, if Joe's out for the season, that would/should be the final blow to this already **** disaster of a season.

And Harden is gone for SURE. He gone.

It proves again LUCK is the single most important thing for winning a chip no matter how talented you are.

I can't watch that clown anymore. You have to think he's passive aggressively trying to get his way. Whether that's to get dealt, get Nash fired or something else I have no idea.

These are the words of a narcissist incapable of self introspection.

It is not a question as to why Harden has basically given up. I wouldn't want to play with this jackass either.


Harden loves playing with Kyrie. he said it himself and he shows it on the floor.

fans need to get over that the guys lives arent just basketball and they dont owe you anything


Keep telling yourself that.

Harden literally got named to the all star game a few mins ago.

He has struggled this season but acting like he's the problem here isn't right either. Especially when you consider the terrible spacing issues that clearly is hindering his game.

That being said, he has clearly checked out regardless of what lies Prok is telling himself. He's gone.

The problem is that your leaders set the tone for the team. We can't afford for the rookies and role players to continue to witness his lack of effort and emotion. His body language is Deron like.

I agree, which is why Sean Marks needs to trade him before the deadline.

Marks has really lost me here. If he gets fired, I won't feel sorry for him. He's let this develop into a dumpster fire.

Harden putting up pretty stat lines doesn’t mean the impact is there. He’s been a negative value player as far as impact is concerned in way too many games this season. Him being named to the All Star team is honestly a **** ing joke. He hasn’t been a top 30 player this season.

Agreed. The effective FG percentage is skewed because they don't count shot attempts when you're fouled. People see 22 points on 15 shots and think he had a good game even though he shot 5 for 15. They don't account for the fact that the 10 made free throws came from another 6 possessions that ended with a Harden shot.
