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.

Harden cruising his way to being a joke in the league. Dude was amazing in Houston. But now he just wants to sit back and cruise while others do the heavy lifting.

Unless he starts playing like Houston Harden again he's done, dude cannot win by only taking 8-9 shots a game. Literally cruising by barely taking any shots and not putting anymore effort into defense. Usually when you get star teammates your efficiency goes up but Harden is literally the same player as before but taking half the shots. Which is useless.
