He has activated playoff mode early

And every human being is better than Chris Fedor. It’s cycles like that.

He stands around looking lost. I cringe every time the ball is in his hands. He slows everything down when the rest of the time is trying to run.

Only three more years to go. Hang in there, Cavs fans!

He's also expanding faster than the universe

Common engagement farm. Talk about shitty ass “superstar” 70mil Donovan Mitchell or Evan “never works on shit” Mobley

He was the number one reason LeBron crossed Cleveland off the list.

The word bum is done a great injustice if I am to use it on this guy.

Someway somehow we’re still gonna end up with this Harden vs Dwayne Wade comparison this season😭

And they still owe him 65+ million for the next 2 years

+15.7 without Harden, -5.6 with him, 11 games in. Jeez At what point does Cleveland admit this isn't a sample size thing?

I’d be surprised if he’s still in the NBA in the next 3 years.

How much money you need to delete this my guy? Name your price.

As much as I hate Harden, I got to say give him some time before he shits the bed in the playoffs.

Scammed a fresh 3 year extension too😭

Something seems off with Harden ... (maybe it's early in the season)🤷‍♂️ #LetEmKnow #NBAX

James Harden had the best scoring peak since Michael Jordan, and one bad month has people acting like it never happened. Sixth Man of the Year at 22. Three straight scoring titles. 36.1 a night in 2018-19. MVP. 45 in a playoff game at age 33.

Harden age 37 & still has 2 yrs on contract after this one at $32M a yr. There has always been an owner or 2 in the NBA that signs players to ridiculous contracts — causing hard salary caps or — in today’s game — the 2nd Apron to be forced on other, well managed teams

A quick reminder that Darius Garland is still just 26 years old and is putting up 20 and 7 despite no good teammates
58
Gosh, a guy that never takes care of his body and has motivational issues not helping his team? No way...
329
He just force his way to the cavs cause they was the only ones offering him that contract . He ready to go now🤣
74
he’s better off in his solo missions
53
Bench him for Maleek Thomas if you have any stones Kenny

Donavan Mitchell cant be #1. At this age Harden should he with great players and not have to be better than the teams best player in order for the team to win. He had to work way too hard for them to make the conference finals for the first time in Mitch's career. Bad pairing
