    Jonathan Feigen is not just "some reporter".

    He stole the Thunder ballboy story from Clutch and Clitchfans. I'd say he isn't worth **** as a reporter.

    Thing is, if he has other symptoms, then he's probably coming down with something more serious. I don't think Harden was trying to excuse himself, but i could see him mentioning it, without thinking it would raise eyebrows. It could affect him, whether we like it or not. We don't know how bad he's feeling or how quickly it'll progress.

    Really, Feigen should know better though. Did he not expect for it to be taken that way? He tweeted and then went on to defend James in regards to it. If you don't want people to jump on it, then don't report it. He probably did it on purpose though.

    Michael jordan played and won a championship with the flu. I'm sure harden will be just fine with a sore throat.

    He was sick Nov 19 @ Utah. He played 17 minutes and wasn't good to say the least.

    Probably from all the d*** he sucked Monday! Jk, this blows! Hopefully he can give us 15-20 at the least...

    In other news, does anyone feel like NBA players get sick more frequently than any other group o people in the world?

    Oooooh, the flu. I'm so sick of hearing about that. I'm in awe of Michael Jordan's achievements, just like the next guy, but I really think that stupid flu game was a bit exaggerated for drama's sake.

    It's up to the coach to see whether a player is playing effectively and smartly. Hope McHale figures it out quickly.

    Even if he's sick, it's not like he'll play any worse

    You realize he was given food poisoning by a Utah pizza delivery boy, right? It wasn't exaggerated whatsoever.
