James Harden, noted offensive enthusiast, was surprisingly caught snoozing during an in-bounds play on Wednesday night against the Clippers. The footage of Harden completely forgetting to mark his man gets better every time you watch it. Just enjoy watching one of the greatest defenders of all-time in the NBA doing what he does best. The Clippers ended up beating the Rockets by a score of 122-106 despite Harden’s best defensive efforts.
If there are any young children out there who are playing basketball, we would urge you to understand that this post was in jest. In no means should you ever use James Harden as a model for defense of any kind.
