    I'm so bummed that these televised games have had awful Harden. I wish everyone could see how different he has been this year.

    Hopefully James will revert back to being good in the second half. Clutchfans needs it

    Unlikely. Not only does he struggle with the Warriors, he looks particularly checked out tonight.

    Role players or bust tonight

    He isnt hurting the team. He is helping us for the most part. Hes just not calable of helping as much as he was with a healthy wrist.

    He got a grown mans offensive rebound over draymond green and has set up multiple teammates for baskets.

    I think its mind blowing to talk this much **** about a player who is refusing to leave his teammates high and dry. He knows hes limited and will look bad to the talking heads, pissed off fans, and critics but still wants to compete and perform next to his teammates.

    That is unselfish and leadership to me

    Not really.

    "Rest" for an injury is different than just "rest."

    Harden's comments don't really preclude him from sitting out due to injury now.

    I'm all for James sitting the game. He has been a liability. Bench was doing great before he came in and started playing dumb.

    Disagree. Rest is rest.

    Sitting out due to injury is not rest.

    Do you care now that we are leading at the half?

    Just when you get fatigued about losing, the Rockets pull you back in.

    yeah, there's a difference between sitting out because you're tired and sitting out because u have a legitimate injury...Harden has a legitimate injury that is clearly affecting his play

    James not only can't shoot tonight and turning the ball over, but his defensive
    lapses contributed to that GSW run at the end of the half.
    Fell asleep while his man cut to the basket behind him for a layup. And then
    ran to Curry (who was already being guarded by Lou) and left Iggy wide open.
    Result? WIDE OPEN 3. That's 5 easy points.
