The Clippers are now 4-7 since trading for Harden, or 0-1 in his “ready” state.
Memes aside, he was okay this game, but okay isn’t good enough when you’re with a fully healthy Clippers vs a Reggie Jackson-led Nuggets.
Harden isn’t exactly playing terribly as a Clippers, but at this point in his career, it’s hard to justify an offence-first player on a team as offensively stacked as the Clippers when they’re in desperate need of some more off-ball movement.
Harden is looking to secure a max extension, we’ll have to see what kind of contract he can muster as he gets more into game shape as the season progresses.
u/JayOwenWest u/BluCSGO u/Niceguydan8 and u/T26_00 have some apologies to make.
if any of you genuinely believed it was a nephew take even prior to the Harden/Simmons trade then you either lack the ability to imagine the future or you were lying to yourself from the start. a young player that has made leaps and bounds every single season he played wasn’t going to be potentially better than an aging star clear as day on the decline come two years? FOH ya clowns
