    To me, Harden has no real room to do things like this with his teammates. He doesn't lead by example enough (poor defense at times, careless TOs, etc.) This is the way to lose respect of your teammates real quick.

    harden is frustrated and I don't blame

    it looks like dekker said something to harden that upset him probably regarding his defense on a play

    Is your definition of playing well 'committing inexcusable amount of turnovers and playing lazy ass defense, but somehow still gets a W mainly due to role players stepping up their game?' Because that's what actually happened early in the season. Now that Harden's shooting has gone to ****, he looks legit terrible out there. Doesn't even look like a decent player.

    Time for players only meeting in the men's club.

    Hopefully Harden will slap some sense into his teammates, but probably he may just slap some strippers asses.

    The fake hustle is real right now. Corey Brewer is a master at it;however, it has rubbed off on Beverley and 'trezL too.

    Gotta give KJ some burn, but I"m scared when players change hair styles every other day. Usually that becomes a habit for scrubs like Scott Pollard, Spencer Hawes, and Jeremy Lin.

    Well, the bench was good.

    Harden has had far more good games than bad games this year, so I can't be too upset with his performance tonight. Harden looks like he's tired and needs a few days off.

    Harden having a subpar game and no Gordon was too much to overcome.

    The Sixers game could be tough. Yes, the Sixers.

    So u think while Harden is turning the ball like crazy..... Dekker, Harrel, Sewer, and Gordon magically carried us into our record today? The ball somehow magically appeared into their hand while they wide open to make their shots?

    Issues aside from the obvious fact that harden has to play better:

    1) Bevs defense has disappeared again. His man is constantly open and for the life of me I can't figure out why bev is in the paint so much with a wide open three point shooter out on the perimeter

    2) no paint defense. Teams are just spinning our guys around in the paint. Guys not communicating, getting lost on switches and turned around by guys driving. Just terrible paint defense

    3) shooting has disappeared. No commentary necessary
