If anyone has the archive of the last game watch right before the game starts when Harden is at the scorers table, bill or bull said something about Harden not being injured this season. When I heard that I knew something bad would happen
McHale should pull a page from Pop's playbook and sit Harden tonight. No reason to risk further injury when he's not 100% this early in the season.
