    The 'Dallas' game...

    I'm close to believing Harden can't take us to the promise land. Too many deficiencies on the Defensive end. Maybe a better coach could get something out of him but I think he is who he is.

    Truth. There is no kneejerk here. Harden is the only "superstar" who is prone to multiple BAD games. Sure, others play poorly once in a while, but Hardens frequency of BAD games is alarming.

    this guy has serious issues...is he bipolar? i've been seen a former MVP candidate have such ridiculously horrible games, even last year when he was balling.

    Quite frankly, he got bailed out by an amazing Brewer and Smith 4th quarter against the Clippers.

    He put in another average playoffs performance but it was overlooked because we made the WCF.

    I am not going to give up on him just yet, but he is looking very TMac in Toronto- ish lately.

    He hasn't been coached properly the past 3 years. I'm going to assume that and will see how he play the 2nd half of the season under a new coach.

    At least Tmac could blame injuries for his poor games. What is Hardens excuse?

    He was coached properly last year! What do you mean?? It's all on him. I agree with DD, he got his $, extra contracts, global attention, now he is lazy...

    I rather have T-Mac right now.

    "Toronto" game aside, at least when T-Mac struggled with his shots, he did other things on the floor and actually played defense on the other end.

    For all the maturity Harden seemed to gain last season, he has totally regressed this season.

    I miss T-Mac. Harden needs a heart transplant from T-Mac.
