    You never had a hang over that lasted until the next night? Got a tip for the rest of us or have you just never drank that hard without throwing up (which actually, according to studies, helps with hang overs)?

    Harden as a star player may continue to hyped up in the nba but in Houston, TX he is no longer respected in that regard.

    He lacks a sense of urgency

    I don't believe made up nonsense fabricated by agenda driven posters who have no proof whatsoever...trolls will do what they do which is make up garbage and then fools will eat it up and spread it

    Well, I;m pretty drunk right now. But I wanted to post this song here for the real Clutchfan members who could appreciate such an offering in this time of despair.

    MDA's body language says it all. He looks like "we're fcked" before the game even starts. Why is he feeling that way is the real question to answer?

    I haven't heard of him being out the night before the game. He's been pretty good about it this year (hiding) and not partying. He had an amazing year. I'm not mad at him.

    Now last night after the loss, I wouldn't be surprised if he went to party with Travis Scott and Kylie Jenner. I can find that out.

    In other news. Corey Brewer was out eating with his wife around the galleria yesterday. Caracol. Said Hello to him, he saw my shirt n said y'all got this tonight. ( he also mentioned that he's living in Houston still). That was it. Nice guy.

    If Harden was hungover, I'd expect him to be completely gassed and throw the game. Instead...he just went through the motions.

    Hungover or not, the dude gave no effort. No excuse for that.

    Has this been verified? DaDa told us James was out at Treasures the previous night. If true, that would throw this whole thing into a further mess

    But the again, it's DaDa.

    Anyone got updates on whether James partied late Wednesday night/Thursday morning?

    This is all hearsay.

    Rumors and speculation.

    James sucked and deserves every ounce of criticism he gets but lets not make stuff up, slander the dude, and pull crap out of our ass.

    Itd make more sense to me if he was there last night after the loss

    This was beginning of second half. Extremely awkward.

    A fair take. Didn't go down swinging.

    I don't know if there is any truth to the "Harden was hungover" bit, but his party boy habits have been a problem in the past. There were games in past seasons where you just knew he'd been clubbing hard the night before. McHale (and I'm no fan) mentioned this season (as an announcer, of course) that this was a problem when he was here.

    Whatever the truth, it seems to me that he didn't take this game seriously. It was as I feared: oh, no Parker, AND no Kawhi? WE GOT THIS!

    There was zero sense of urgency. Even then, though, he looked like a complete bum. Part of me wonders if these head coaches need to understand the importance of getting other players out there so you don't drive Harden into the ground. A lot of you say, "Hey, I'm young, I've been hung over, I've been good to go at 7 pm the following day"; but you are not likely an NBA player.

    Harden held it together most of the season. Then Wandering Attention Harden reared its head. Fatigue? Frat boy hits his late 20's?

    Anyway, no one on the team will have the guts to dress him down for this performance. We can say, "Trade him to the Lakers for their top pick and whatever," but Morey won't do that unless Les is ready to can him and start fresh (given the Warriors likely dominance of the league for these next three or four seasons).

    Instead, it will be, "Let's find that second star." SS, DD (same s***, different day). Or maybe that's, "SS, DS" (same s***, different season).
