He's not a thug, doesn't get arrested, puts up lots of points, hits big time shots, loves to enjoy life. So he's not Bruce Bowen, so what??

Much like with Cam Newton and Matt Ryan, it begins with the NO inferiority complex and the constant need to fixate on a "rival" to which they compare their moribund franchises.

The pelitards hate him bc ryno called him the leagues best player.

Anderson said the team has been on his mind "for a lot of years." The Rockets have tried trading for him in past seasons, and his father, Jack, said though Anderson received an offer from his hometown Sacramento Kings, the Rockets were the "clear-cut" choice.

"I'm excited to be here and play with a guy like James, who is, in my mind, the best player in the NBA, a guy that's going to get Eric and I a lot of wide-open looks," said Anderson, a forward who has shot nearly 38 percent from 3-point range in his career. "I haven't had a lot of wide-open looks over the years."

I've always hated watching him play. He's a volume scorer that flops his arse off. He's the best drawer of non-fouls I've ever seen. It's frustrating that he gets those calls then shoots 90% at the line.

Don't get me started on his defense

Because he has the least aesthetically pleasing play style of any player in the NBA.

He would rather get fouled than make a bucket.

lack of hustle on defense says a lot about a person. And that person is james harden.

I wouldn't say I hate him but I'm not a fan. If he was just bad at defense then that's fine but he doesn't even try.

I'll never root for a guy that doesn't try.

He has led the league in free throw attempts per game in 3 of the last 4 season since he's been with Houston. And that's not because teams foul him to prevent him from scoring - it's because he flails around like spastic moron every time he drives to the basket to get a call.

You are either a nerd or from the north. "You guys" sounds so stupid.

I have never had a problem with him... Maybe the fact that he cries like A bitch on the court. but most of them do that anyway.. I would Love him on the Pelicans with Davis though... INSTANT contender if he was.........

I hate his game. A herky jerky foul fest reminds me of those stilted mugging games from the late 90s. Flopping your way to 12 foul shots is not an appealing brand of basketball to me.

short of Bruce Bowen, there are guys who play hard every play.

Jerry Sloan.

trying really matters.

Sloan was all NBA defense first team.

Harden does not play hard every play.

Boo. boo. booooooo. I would not have him on my team.

BB was a champion thrice over.

Something Harden has yet to accomplish once.
