Details Of James Harden’s Hissy Fit After 76ers Beat Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers were defeated by the Philadelphia 76ers 121-107 on Sunday.

Harden, of course, was traded by Philly to L.A. this past offseason. The move came after he outwardly protested the team’s front office and got then-head coach Doc Rivers fired.

Understandably, Harden did not take kindly to his old team embarrassing his new team.

“James Harden left the Clippers locker room before Ty Lue even began his postgame press conference, when locker room wasn’t yet open to media,” Sixers beat writer Gina Mizell reported.

Fans, understandably, weren’t particularly sympathetic to Harden’s plight:

For what it is worth, Harden wasn’t the only person upset on the Clippers’ side.

“They’re grown men,” head coach Ty Lue said of his group.

“They understand, It’s not like we’re playing with second or third year players. I’m never the type of guy who wants to show a player up or show them that they’re making a mistake.

“I’d rather not do that,. that’s a story for you guys. They understand what the f—…They understand what they’re supposed to be doing. We just gotta do better all around the board.”

The Clippers are currently 44-26 and sit fourth in the Western Conference.

Unfortunately, Harden’s immaturity has been a big issue over the past week.

It will be interesting to see if it continues to be a problem going forward.

Will Harden and the Clippers be able to get on the same page ahead of this year’s NBA playoffs? Time will tell.
