    Last night he was berating his teammates after he would make a bad decision. He is a great player but he sure seems like a jerk. Also he is a known trick who likes to spend tens of thousands of dollars at the strip club. His whole persona screams self absorbed attention w****. I wish harden would shave the beard, cut the Mohawk and humble himself.

    I'm looking forward to the off season with all of the possibilities, but if I saw that I would not want to sign with the Rockets. He doesn't play defense, holds the ball and wastes the shot clock until he kicks it out, and he doesn't play smart. Don't play for the foul if they're not calling it.

    This team needs to step up on defense in order to win a game or two in the playoffs and that includes Harden the most. Half court offense and defense is everything in the playoffs.

    These are dumb reasons to not root for a guy. Harden is really is easy to root for in my opinion.

    I can root for him, but my biggest problem with him that I just noticed last night is that he does not excite me in any way. He's so calm and relaxed its boring watching him play. Like when Kobe has a big dunk you get excited because Kobe gets all excited and his increased energy level makes you excited as well. That's really my only gripe with Harden, he has Andre Johnson syndrome.

    The guys is a scorer for sure, but I'd like to see how he flourishes in a few more years to call him a superstar.

    What he does in his personal time, is HIS business.

    How he styles his hair and facial hair is HIS business.

    As for mistreating his teammates: Great players have been known to do this - Kobe does/did this, MJ did this as well. We are in the playoffs because of him. Have you seen how Westbrook behaves like a 3 yr old/how he treats his teammates:confused::rolleyes:

    I did see some bickering between Harden and some of the guys when the meltdown started, most notably McHale and Delfino. After one of the timeouts Harden looked like he was ttrying to explain himself, and Delfino was like "yeah ok , whatever" and just walked away from him.

    And that scence between Harden and McHale, man I wish I was courtside to hear what they were saying.

    Not blaming anyone, just hope they're all on the same page when the playoffs start. Players only meeting if they have to.

    Lol I root for harden because he is a rocket. I never said I hope harden fails. So I guess being a rockets fan means I need to be into every single player. Well sorry reeko I'll never be a Royce white fan either.

    Royce doesn't play here but if he did you bet your ass I'd root for him to succeed since the Rockets success is predicated on it's players succeeding.

    The exact opposite is true.
