I guess he just really misses those titty bars 🤷🏾♂️
I always wonder why it’s assumed the Rockets would want or take him back
woj is a schill for the nets, thats all it is…
Harden's peak/prime is far behind him. Harden (as is Westbrook) deserve the league minimum!
No state taxes better weather plus hotter strippers !!!
He misses being the toast of the town. He misses the strip clubs and night life. He was probably the biggest celebrity in Houston during his time out there.. also taxes aren’t nearly as bad as Brooklyn or Philly
He moves like a chick. He's trying to come back after it didn't work out for him in "greener pastures". Kick rocks, sister. You ain't man enough to be in Texas.
yall clearly never been to onyx🤸🏼
Money?
“For the first time in his career he doesn’t have to be the best player on his team” KOC he played for OKC and the Nets with two superstars each and was never asked to be the best player on either of those teams.
Harden misses all the great opportunities to put young ladies through college he got in Houston.
victor, james, and khris middleton this offseason will help the rockets win it all
I think it's an obvious BS Report from ESPN considering that they released it literally 30 minutes before the Christmas game, trying to give the Knicks an edge by messing with the Sixers mentally and drive traffic to their social media / website
Is legit benefits neither side which is why I think this report is BS. Pardon said his ultimate goal is to win a championship and he's not doing that in Houston right now
Hardens usage rate this year is only 24 percent this year, lowest since okc days
That would be the biggest HELL NO! if I’m a Rockets fan.
…he would 100% stunt the growth of the young players.
So he try and score high 30s again and be the man. 22 ain't enough he wants Embiid stats. He's not Lebron going back to lead the young guns to contention he wants final solo glory. I'm hoping Houston won't be stupid enough to let him at their young core.
Harden has always played how he’s playing. Not sure why they think he’s any different 🐐🐐
I guess the strip clubs in Philly aren't that good.
Philly is going to pay him. What other choice do they have? Let him walk for nothing? Unless they get rid Harris they can’t really do anything in free agency
The YouTube music is better than the podcasts
You'd get a lot of views if you made this exact same video but instead you just talked about stripclubs in Houston.
Kevin O' Process has some horrible takes, almost as bad as Simmons
I don’t blame harden he was comfortable living in Houston that’s his home
escape from glenn rivers island
He miss j prince
I think this is just smoke by his agent to pressure Philly to give him the max deal he wants
Embid free throw leading MVP race? Buaahahahaha give me a minute to figure it out 😖🤣😭🙈
Did you say for the first time in his careee he doesn’t have to be the best player? He was third to Durant and Westbrook
So, does Houston want this tho? Like you went ahead a ditched them and now you want back in? Idk man.
