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.
“Held accountable” yeah in my mind being suspended for a few games is far from actually being held accountable. But it’s better than nothing, which is what I expected with the way the league has handled Draymond up to this point
Yeah, I’m aware it’s a low bar but it is more than before so technically he’s being held responsible lol
