    I completely agree. People are still dying from this. This guy is unprofessional and selfish. Cut that beard off and deal with the real you. This guy needs soul searching and thats also a whole different discussion regarding his attitude and mindset.

    Rubbish. How many players care that little about their reputation?
    Look at other players making Max money. Curry, LeBron, Kawhai, Giannis etc- could you honestly see those guys out partying or breaking protocol to the detrement of their reputation or their team?
    I love Harden, but that was stupid and just arrogance.

    NBA is a joke. 50,000$? really? Lol.

    Harden thinks the cost of violation is so cheap. Next party is on the way.

    good point, Hardens a diff animal. But again more players will fail and not care for that slap on the wrist. PJ tucker is crying, he could have bought 4 Jordans

    @DaDakota says Harden will be broke within 7 years of retiring from basketball. so you're right. we should set up a gofundme for him now.

    Honestly it’s more about NBA saying we are not playing around. 500k would have said something diff to the league.
