maaan...aint he gettin paid like 26 mil a year to play basketball?

No one wants to hear about him being "tired"...either give back some of the money or 'untired' yaself and play ball.
I hear u but we let Bron fans make that same excuse about him being tired

Whether justified or not, Harden doesn't get the same calls in the playoffs as he does in the regular season. Probably plays into his frustration where it seems like he's *quitting*.

Athletes get tired. The body wears down.

Just because there isnt a quantifiable measurement doesnt mean we should pretend like its not happening.



ESPN analyst want you to believe "well he sat a game here in January and another one in march, he should be fresh." then they begin throwing salaries around and how these athletes MUST all have elite conditioning because they get paid so much.


Every human is built different. I dont like Harden (because of how he talked shyt to kobe when he was a bench player in OKC) and i dislike his free throw filled gimmick.

But he was tired
I mean if you cant get past the 2nd rd without tiring out then i dunno what to say.... :francis:

I hate giving these athletes the benefit of the doubt especially after having a day of rest in between games but at the same time I don't know what it is to play in the NBA either.

fukk that he quit. He fukked up at the end of game 5 and he mailed it in game 6.
fukk that tired shyt, he quit just like he does every other possession on the defensive end. How is he tired when he takes a break on defense? And not like his defense is bad, he just doesn't put forth any effort.
