    I'm sharing this only because this guy is the epitome of the anti-Harden narrative. This was sent to me at work by a couple of Jazz fans.

    I haven't seen it, but the amount of words this guy writes to try to destroy an NBA superstar has to be pretty rare. I don't see these articles about Manu Ginobili?

    Wise man.

    You should only read this if you're wondering what it's like reading the worst things on the internet.

    It's medium. It's like the modern day version of a blogger post. I could write an article about Ginobili being a bald headed blow hard on Medium.

    When you have to resort to words like "Moral" and "classless (or classy!)" to malign or defend players, you are moving the goal posts.

    Trust me, it's not. I've lived near Spurs fans, Mavs fans, Nuggets fans, Suns fans, and never seen a fan base so obsessed with dissecting the NBA rulebook as Jazz fans. They barely talk about matchups or Xs and Os. It's just amateurs trying to play ref. You can even see it in the crowd.

    ONE more win and these whiny bastards can go jump in a Salt Lake (not literally...).

    Watching their crowd be boisterous for 3 1/3 quarters it was so satisfying to see their faces flop at the final buzzer. They won't have anything (valid) to say once it's over. And for all intents and purposes... it already is.

    Morally deficient? Lol, really? It’s a game, it’s not that deep...

    articles like this say a lot about a person...whoever the writer is needs to get over himself and stfu

    Reeko can’t spend time reading something like this, it’s a little too ridiculous for me

    You guys are all missing the point here. This one is so over the top that I'm convinced it's satire. The writer's trying to make a point about what idiots Harden haters are.

    And yes, I'm serious. Check out that final line:

    "And thank the Lord that Chris Paul got hurt in the conference finals last year, because James Harden sure had the Warriors on the ropes..."

    That's absolutely NOT a slam on Harden, it's a compliment to his greatness. If you're doing a legit hit piece, you don't finish it off by praising your subject.

    If this isn't satire, it's sad. Maybe I should read it to see if it is.

    It's totally satire, and it's so well done I can imagine a lot of actual Harden haters cheering it.

    Just look at the title, for chrissakes: James Harden Plays Morally Deficient Basketball (How to hate the reigning NBA MVP). If this isn't satire, the writer wouldn't foreground the point that Harden is the MVP by sticking it right there in his over-the-top title.
