The Los Angeles Clippers didn’t assume that they had sufficient expertise to significantly compete for a championship of their fourth season of the Kawhi Leonard and Paul George period. That’s why the Clippers pulled the set off on a commerce to accumulate James Harden on Oct. 31.

The Clippers have been 3-1 on the time of the commerce. They nonetheless haven’t gained a recreation since.

The Mavericks beat Los Angeles, 144-126, on Friday night time in a recreation that didn’t appear that shut. Luka Doncic was electrical for the Mavs to complete with 44 factors, six assists, and 6 rebounds. Harden, in the meantime, had one other powerful night time, ending with 14 factors on 3-of-6 taking pictures in 29 minutes. The Clippers at the moment are 0-3 in video games with Harden.

Harden has lengthy been polarizing participant, however his determination to drive his method out from three totally different groups within the final three years has invigorated his critics. Throughout halftime of the Mavs-Clippers recreation, Dallas broadcaster Brian Dameris went on a rant for the ages towards Harden. That is simply concerning the harshest criticism you’ll ever hear on a participant. In the event you’re a Harden hater, it ought to be music to your ears. Watch the video right here.

“You’re not the beard. You’re not the system. You’re the issue,” Dameris stated to shut his tirade.

All of the hallmarks of an incredible rant on there. Dameris spoke with (sports activities) hate in his coronary heart. He got here with all of the info. He didn’t pause or stammer or cease for air. He didn’t maintain again as soon as. Somebody has already put it over the “Ether” beat, as a result of the NBA Twitter doesn’t miss.

The Clippers have some actual issues proper now. They’re smaller and weaker on the glass after buying and selling Nicolas Batum and Robert Covington within the Harden deal. They’re nonetheless determining how Harden suits with Leonard, George, and Russell Westbrook, with all 4 at present beginning video games collectively. Harden himself simply hasn’t seemed the identical by way of attending to the basket or the foul line. He had already dropped from celebrity to All-Star throughout his time with the Philadelphia 76ers. After his newest coaching camp holdout, it appears like he’s barely hanging on to his NBA fame.

Nonetheless, it’s solely been three video games. We didn’t love the commerce on the time for the Clippers, however this experiment deserves an actual likelihood earlier than we decide it. Then once more, nobody ever stated life is truthful. Dameris had a message for Harden, and he delivered it with drive. Harden higher flip his mess around, in any other case this rant goes to be reposted all season lengthy.
