    James Harden ‏@JHarden13
    They don't really understand me, and I'm cool with that...


    He tweeted this yesterday, so maybe the guy was just having a bad day. Everyone has a bad day every once in a while....

    So James Harden sat at your friend's table and he complains about the service at his table....seems like someone needs to learn how to wait tables.

    If the OP's friend is not a Rockets fan - as in being a fan of every single player on the team, including the trainers, then she has no credibility here. If she can't name the starting five of the 1973 Rockets team, she needs to shut her mouth before she thought about laying eyes on Harden. This is a fan board for the Rockets team (notice how I spelled out the word "team"). Not a place for Harden Only Haters to make their proclamations.
    Now that I am done talking like a clutchfans ass, I find it hard to believe that someone like Harden would go to a place like the galleria and not expect to be bothered. The guy has been in the public eye for a number of years in OKC, where more people recognize their NBA player by percentage than Houston residents. There's more to the story that we are not getting here.

    I've had ****ty service at Cheesecake Factory before, so not sure I blame the guy. Sounds like someone in a bad mood though for sure.

    I don't give a $HIT about him as a person! He's a monster player. As long as he produces on the court, he can be the biggest douche alive.

    Harden is outgoing enough to sit at your friend's table? That's pretty out of the ordinary I would think. Maybe complaining about the service was some way of attempting to find a bond with your friend?

    I don't know. I won't judge the guy based on one example of hearsay. But I will keep it in my mind should there be a pattern of such examples.

    I've met him through a girl that was dating him recently. Came off as just a blunt person. Pretty good guy from my perspective, just no filter which some people have issues with.

    maybe he was just having a bad day, he has a personal life too besides b ball, i would be aggravated if someone was all up im my face when i was in a bad mood, but that does not excuse him having an attitude if he did have one, people do tend to exaggerate sometimes

    Coming from a true clutchfans veteran :rolleyes:.... I'm not saying you haven't been a Rockets fan for a long period(my fandom did not start the day i made an account, I was reading on clutchfans 2 years b4 I made one). But you seem to have an overkill amount of Clutchfans pride going on right now...

    Not true. Most NBA players are actually nice guys or indifferent. The guys from rough backgrounds or that get in trouble are often very nice in person (Vernon Maxwell, Gerald Green, Stephen Jackson, Derrick Rose). I met Harden when he was still on the Thunder at a Chicago steakhouse. He joked with the waiters and can see how someone could think he was needy, but he tipped extremely well and was nice to the people that approached him.
