James Harden's NBA Salary is $38,200,000
James Harden was fined $50,000
0.13% of his salary.
What the **** is this going to do to deter ANYONE from breaking the rules now?
Jesus Adam Silver has got to be the biggest pushover of a commissioner in professional sports without a doubt, and one of the biggest pushovers in history.
So true, but according to the sports media and fans, he's the best commissioner in all of sports and "it's not even close"
It is a joke.
That is the same as giving a $65 fine for someone making $50,000 a year.
Basically the same as a parking ticket.
Lol oh god. Just listened to Adam Silver on ESPN The Jump discuss why he only fined Harden $50,000. His reasons:
1) Because it's Christmas
2) This is his 1st offence because he wasn't under the same rules as everyone else before reporting to training camp (even though training camp already began for everyone else and they were following protocols)
3) This is the maximum he's allowed to fine Harden under the CBA
4) Punishments will get worse based on accumulating offences
This guy literally could not be any more of a pushover if he actively tried to be.
I think it has more to do with stacking teamstrue
it's why the NBA is losing popularity at a catastrophic rate
No they aren't. Siakam is not a #1 option. He will get the touches and will put up points, they had that with DeRozan, but Siakam is not a great player. He's an athletic mismatch.Championship contenders don't need Harden.
Toronto is a championship contender.
DeRozan was never a "good" #1 option. He was the best the Raptors had but couldn't shoot a 3. In the playoffs good teams stopped him going to the basket and he didn't have anything else. Consequently the Raptors kept losing.No they aren't. Siakam is not a #1 option. He will get the touches and will put up points, they had that with DeRozan, but Siakam is not a great player.

Absolutely. Siakam is going to get DeRozan's shots and be successful but that doesn't mean Siakam is the type a player to lead a team. He may prove me wrong but from what I see when he players he doesn't have "it".DeRozan was never a "good" #1 option. He was the best the Raptors had but couldn't shoot a 3. In the playoffs good teams stopped him going to the basket and he didn't have anything else. Consequently the Raptors kept losing.
But how many players have "it" ? Very few. Even LeBron needed another top 5 player to win last year. The Raptors need another stud player; a Lowry clone that's 10 years younger.Absolutely.

Superstars have "it". No one on the raptors has "it". People were led to believe DeRozan had "it", but to the trained eye he had sh"it". lolBut how many players have "it" ? Very few.

Is that you Daryl?Harden #2 option? Wtf? The guy in unstoppable offensively. Best offensive player in NBA.
If you are playing HORSE. But he doesn't engage his teammates, or change his game when his shooting goes cold and plays crap defense. He can score but not sure he can win.Harden #2 option? Wtf? The guy in unstoppable offensively. Best offensive player in NBA.

Send him to the Knicks if they are interested.The Rockets must be tearing out their hair now that Brooklyn probably isn't an option anymore.
If he goes to the Knicks he might put up 50 pts a game; but the team will have less than 10 wins on the season!Send him to the Knicks if they are interested.
Hilarity ensues.
Doesn't matter. He's been constantly surrounded by talent and failed to get the job done.Harden #2 option? Wtf? The guy in unstoppable offensively. Best offensive player in NBA.
Surrounded by talent he reportedly chose. Apparently he’s an even worse GM than he is teammate.Doesn't matter. He's been constantly surrounded by talent and failed to get the job done.
There's too much evidence that's been piled up to show Harden doesn't get it done when it matters most. No team with championship aspirations should be trading for this fool.
