He does this almost every game and he does it in in a manner that just makes him look like a shitty person especially those times where he looses his man for the back door lay up and he turns around and throws up his arms and yells at one of his big men. If you watch Rocket games on a consistent basis you've witnessed this and if you deny it, you are either flat out lying or just don't watch the games. Opposing announcers have even mentioned it multiple times. "Harden, that was your fault. Why you yelling at player x'". Yes, I've heard that statement in multiple similar variations from opposing announcers. He deflects his mistakes to his teammates. It's a sign of a shitty person at the core.
I agree. Harden stole my girlfriend once. He punched my dog. Broke the windows at my house. S****y person. Rotten to the core. How do I know all this? Well...Harden a couple times gets frustrated or disagrees with his teammates on a basketball court. It's a classic sign of a truly cold-hearted person.
You can watch enough basketball games to make RELATIVE claims based in prior players and other teams to understand Harden has a habit of showing visual frustrating at teamates for his mistakes on the court such as allowing a backdoor pass in the paint. I've also noticed how multiple commentators noticed instances of this also. Maybe I watch a lot of opposing announcer streams because I live in Mass and don't have league pass. Interpret that specific behavior of Harden's on your own accord but don't go attacking strawmen of what I stated. No need to play a poor attempt at psychology. Let me play shitty psychologist so we are even. You had nothing substantial to retort with thus you just lashed out at a strawman. Look dude, In things that matter, we agree on ALOT of things but you have an irrational apologetic streak with Harden dude.
This is all absurd. Harden doesn't get anymore visibly upset than James, Wade, Butler or a number of other players. Further Harden never runs his mouth to the media. He has never been in trouble with the law, no kids out of wedlock, no scandals and is active in charitable causes. No reason to believe he is a bad person.
Agreed. He DOES deflect blame when he makes a mistake on defense a lot. Well not necessarily deflect to someone else but just in general act like it was his fault. He seems very defensive about that probably because dantonio had a serious talk with him. But bad person? His teammates, including dekker, seem to really like him. He's also the oppposite of selfish. Sometimes team leaders get into guys chill, that doesn't make them bad people. He didn't go Kobe on the kid
Are you still a pretend Rockets fan, especially now that we're contending? GTFO already!!!! Shyyyyyte
Just think your assertion of Harden being "a s****y person at the core" despite tons of evidence of the contrary is silly and baseless. And yes...maybe I am an apologist for Harden, in that I don't nitpick every last thing about him. What do you think of Demarcus Cousins? Because Harden is a saint compared to that dude.
Harden isn't perfect, but very few superstar players are. They have very strong personalities and are often defensive and abrasive. The only exception I can think of is Tim Duncan and he is still quite arrogant.

Sorry, I forgot the #1 rule of Clutchfans: "Harden will get all the credit when we win (hence the MVP narrative, despite the bench and role players doing a lot of work), but should take no blame whatsoever when we lose."
Somebody has to be the one who has played the most games. But still... As of now, other than the Lakers, the Rockets have played 2 more games than any other team in the league. 4 more than the Warriors and Spurs, 5 more than the Cavs. http://stats.nba.com/teams/traditional/#!?sort=GP&dir=-1 They've also played 2 more road games than anyone else in the league. 3 more than the Spurs, 5 more than the Warriors and 8 more than the Cavs. http://stats.nba.com/teams/traditio...16-17&SeasonType=Regular Season&Location=Road It's not the only reason obviously, but it's one reason for what I hope is just a mid-season slump. They do look gassed lately. That and missing Gordon, who was a big reason for our December success.
