    So that $30 million mansion was paid for using Vanna White's money?

    It doesn't sound like a money grab, as he isn't in need of money, and he isn't asking for a lot more. Although I think you'd want to have some flexibility given the opp for future business. Harden probably didn't know the rule, but unlikely he could prevent it anyway. People just add on at events like this. Harden should probably just pay the extra fees and make it up somewhere else with a commercial so long as there were 15 people in attendance.

    I was also there. We spent more than 300k on bottles on most nights that week. James is willing to pay but he says the limit was 7 males not 7 adults! Yes we had 50 people there a couple of nights but we never had more than 7 guys there at one time. Ok, one chick ended up being questionable but she had elite t*** regardless.

    15-16 pax in an 8 bedroom mansion sounds about right

    Not only that but I am guessing a mansion of that size isn't sitting on an half acre lot. I would be curious to see how close the next house over is. Finally on top of that he is saying that he DOES have parties there but charges more. So basically he is saying it is ok to piss off his neighbors as long as he gets paid. Hmm.

    ... depends exactly on your definition of a party and event. See you in court.

    I think he’s made half a billion dollars, it would be shocking to see someone blow that.

    Owner found j*zz in the pool and on his pool table, that’s why he’s pissed.
    How do people not get more STDs, cannot wear a condom in the pool.

    Mike Tyson made 200 mil in the 90s and ended up broke.

    Fraud? Ok charge a bit more to clean up after a party, but fraud is a bit of a stretch.

    This has nothing to do with Harden being famous. The people spending 82 grand for a one week rental are all famous in their own circles.

    Should have just paid the 150k, no questions asked.

    If the contract was as the owner stated, then I'm with the owner on this one. But at the same time, when you rent to a superstar athlete barely out of his twenties, of course $h!t's going to get tore up.

    You assume he’s guilty?

    Parties, eats, and gets fat. Is he superstar material anymore with all that?

    He was only allowed 7 people max in an 8 bedroom house.... yeah, that makes sense.

    James needs to start reading contracts, that’s his fault, did he even read the one he signed with Tillman for the Rockets, the last two years he is paid with Landrys dine anytime dollars.....

    You think James booked the Airbnb? No either his assistant or a member of his crew did for him. It might be their fault that he wasn’t aware of the issue. At the same time, if you throw a party and invite 5 people, all it takes are TWO to invite a +1 and all of a sudden you are out 70k?

    Come on man, how many times do you invite people over for a gathering and more people show up than you invite. Everything brings somebody, their buddy, their girl, some nice single ladies etc. that’s how social gatherings work.
