This annual "Is Harden fat?" thread came later than I expected. But it makes sense this happens now that there's no longer much speculation about Melo coming.
I just want to mention there were no "Harden looks Fat" threads last year because Harden didn't look fat.
I feel like everyone who posts a Harden is fat comment should be required to post a picture of themselves with their shirt off as well.
Pretty sure his contract comes from just being an elite basketball player. Charles Barkley would be worth $100+mil today and his nickname was "round mound of rebound."
He’s fat compared to last off season. Not much we can do about it except hope he starts cutting far enough out so it doesn’t affect his performance
I'm hopeful he will be in good shape by the opening game, but if he isn't, we will be in for a rough start.
You have to admit he looks fat for an NBA player and comparing him to an NBA fan is stupid. That said, I don't care what he looks like. He just needs to keep winning like he always does. There's no reason to second guess the man because he has proven he knows what he's doing. He has earned that level of respect. It takes a team full of all stars grouping up together to take him down and even then it took 7 games and shady refs.
Lol. I find it funny that we can talk about player's salaries, personal lives, girlfriends, habits, etc etc. But when we talk about their bodies people get all butt-hurt. Because we all know a professional athlete's body isn't relevant at all to their performance! (Sarcasm).
