    Kevin McHale: 'James Harden Is Not A Leader'

    Kevin McHale thinks that James Harden was unable to be a leader for the Rockets.

    While on NBA TV's Open Court, McHale said Harden "tried being a leader last year," but didn't fully have the team's respect.

    Stupid ass, under McHale all the plays were iso Harden. What did McHale actually do? Criticism of Harden is fine and warranted. But not from McHale. Good for James for calling his ass a clown.

    "Calling me names is not going to change my opinion as to what I saw when I was there," McHale said Friday on TNT. "It's hard to have credibility if you don't play defense."

    McHale remained complimentary of Harden's basketball skills while explaining what he considers to be leadership. "[Harden] is a of a basketball player, he really is," McHale said. "And to James' credit, I will say this: He organizes guys in the summer, he does a lot of stuff. He does a lot of those things. When I was talking more about leadership is ... it's a tie game at half. It's a playoff game, or you're playing another team that's tough and rumble, and they're going to get after you. And all of a sudden, with four minutes to go in the third, you're down nine. They're getting every loose ball, they're getting every rebound, they're doing all this stuff. It's not about skill at that point. It's about will. I gotta impose my will on you. James at that point gets a little bit ... that's not his personality."

    How will Frauden ever recover from this?

    Saw this on TNT. And Harden claiming he did everything McHale asked and that McHale never helped him with anything was a deuche move. It only proved McHale's summation, tbh.

    I'm telling you guys, Harden doesn't like basketball. It's pays him millions because hes better than those not in the NBA, but he has no love for the game at this level. He just wants the fame, and paychecks.

    Winning or losing doesn't matter. He only likes winning when it's easy.
