    We called a timeout. Harden grabbed his ankle, winced, and then limped to the bench.

    I have watched Harden for a decade.

    His. ankle. is. not. right.

    Imagine if we had a more consistent star player. Harden's teammates are balling out there most of the time. Every game someone else (usually) steps up, Harden needs to provide us with consistency.

    He needs to play better but hes also hurt DD.

    Its the truth. No coincidence that he hasnt been moving well around there since he tweaked his ankle

    What consistent star do you want to trade Harden for my fellow Houston Rocket fan?

    The guy is a drama king.....not making excuses, but my ankle.....etc...

    Everyone is sore - he needs to be more aggressive.

    I don't think his ankle is any worse than it was in the first game, funny how things don't hurt when shots are falling.

    No excuses.

    He is a big p***y along with all his fans. Typically posters who joined 2012 and up.

    It significantly impacts all facets of his game. You can easily see it when he attacks the rim. He is playing hard, but he is not healthy. NOT good.

    (If you watched the last game, you can see that he basically doesn't have explosion either, but he really didn't need it last game like he does now)

    Yeah, I don't think he is a wuss, I just think he is playing poorly because the SPURS are going AT HIM On offense, and he has not figured out how to attack what they are doing on D with Gasol.

    Settling too much for 3s....a few midrange FT line extended shots to get him going and he will be fine.

    Yah its like hes rooting for harden to fail. He is a step slow and tweaked an already bad ankle. He has no burst. Idk why he has to hate so hard

    Ankle looks hurt to me... it's not hard to see him laboring out there.

    Harden playing badly and the Rockets losing is a great night for him...gives him some ammo to spew more clown sh*t

    can't stand "fans" that do stuff like that

    That layup off the backboard is something I have never seen Harden do, ever.

    They just mentioned it on TNT.

    His IQ is so freaking high. Making up for the bum ankle in all sorts of random ways. Basketball genius.
