    I know there's been a few threads, but he does not. Rudy would never say that about him.


    If he did, he'd put up 50 in games like this.


    If he did, he'd be an all-time great, and he'd have already been to the finals.

    If he did, this game would be close to over. Instead, he looks disinterested.

    If he did, he'd put up 20+ in the fourth and help us pull away.

    James Harden does not have the heart of a champion.

    Russ does. Chris Paul does. Harden does not.

    Seen it again over and over...harden is the problem...this MF play the most important games with no urgency and crap. If we lose, I don't mind getting rid of him...tired of his crap

    Watch an old no knees CP3 start hitting these big shots, and see what I mean.

    Harden doesn't even have the heart of a nba player. He sucks. Done with this loser.

    Why didn't Harden go for that loose ball?

    James is that AAU high school ball player that has been killing the competition and having everybody in his ear hyping him up and inflating his ego, thinking he can do no wrong, nothing is his fault and becomes infallible. Then he steps up to the next level of competition and disappears when HIS team needs him most.

    Harden was decisive for the victory on that last play, but he again had a very bad game in a decisive match. That is still a bad sign. Today we were saved by the immense game of Covington. Go Rockets!!!

    excuse i use to give him was that he was probably burned out from the regular season but with the big break this season cant really defend him anymore. He's too inconsistent

    Good win, onto the Lakers.

    Harden got asthma, prolly not enough lung capacity.

    Dort shut Harden down and really gave him problems. You have to credit them. I've never seen Harden defended so well.

    It was an ugly win, but the Rockets pulled it out somehow. And Harden was a big part of it.

    Kobe who many claim is the clutchesT player ever and shot 100% in crunch time, shot 6-24 in a FINALS game 7. People just love to hate

    He made the defensive play of the season tonight. Yes, his offense sucked, but he had pride and gave maximum effort on the defensive end of the court on the most important possession. That’s the heart of a champion.

    I’m beyond thrilled to see James Harden finally understands there is more to winning than putting up video game numbers offensively. It took a long time for him to get here, but I’m happy this version of Harden finally arrived.

    He was actually decently aggressive in the 4th. Still missed tons of shot . I'm glad I don't have to watch Dort he's built just like Harden, and just completely takes Harden out of his game
