[Yardbarker] Rockets' Harden spending his money 'wisely'

So you just signed a mega contract worth $80 million with an NBA team and what might be the first thing you will do with your fat bank account? If you said hit the strip clubs then you and Rockets' James Harden have something in common. It seems Harden has been adjusting quite nicely to the night-life in Houston as he hit up a local strip club recently and dropped some major cash during a visit. Look, Harden is a single guy, pro-athlete, young and enjoying life. I can't say I wouldn't do the same if I were in his shoes. As long as he is producing on the court, coming to every practice, and not getting into trouble which may land him in jail, then no biggie. Besides, this isn't the first time James took in a strip club. He celebrated a birthday at a strip club.

Good old Houston.

watched the video that Harden celebrated his birthday in a strip club a few months ago, it was quite disturbing. he looked like a psycho in that video

[Dave2000]

If he went to Show Palace on a Tuesday night, then he definitely spent it wisely

This is much needed antidote for those times I see him do the sign of the cross, point-to-the-sky as he enters games, or when he said he needed to pray about OKC's final offer.

This was supposedly on his birthday, it might be nsfw:

Never understood why people care about how other people spend their money

Who gives a flying f*** if these guys go broke -- its not your money

[Prince]

El Hitman?

[coachbadlee]

I just hope it doesn't become a habit.

[v3.0]

Wonder if Harden is a TMC type of patron or a Club Onyx type.

[Karolik]

More concerned about how he is spending his time as a professional during the regular season than how he is spending his money.

[tmacfor35]

He will be making a lot more than 80 million by years end if he continues his scoring output.

Harden is becoming very iconic.

Looks like the Houston strip club scene has found their new investor.

And if it does? Not your concern as long as the man shows up and puts the ball in the basket.

[Dat Dude]

I don't give a damn what he does in his spare time as long as he produces on the court and wins us ballgames.

[RocketsMAN!]

I wonder how many girls he's new found wealth will put 'thru college'.

I guess Romney was right? Family can help put you through college. Just twirk for 'Uncle James' and he's put tuition down on that a$$.

That is my concern. I don't want anything that happens off the court to affect him on the court. That is all.
Anything can happen.

[jayhow92]

I couldn't care less about what he does off the court as long as he continues to produce and doesn't get in trouble.

[Amel]

oh no Harden likes pussy!

No one does, but enjoying naked women when your rich and 23 is hardly an issue.
