    How you going to be a leader and call your former coach a clown and say he never taught you anything? Who taught Harden how to club? How to quit? How to get coaches fired?

    and dont think for a second dennis scott and greg anthony arent putting him up to this, everytime harden gets interviewed on nba tv. Their seems to be an awkward vibe on the set after a game.

    Dennis scott and greg anthony are bitter hakeem denied them rings, and basically got their boy kevin mchale embarrased

    If Harden was going to **** on McHale, he should've dug deeper.

    McHale is a jokester and media darling. He's loved by his peers and a shitload of Celtic fans. No doubt, you're going to see a lot of ppl side with McHale on the matter. Also, if Harden thinks he can win MVP before he retires, well he just destroyed his chances completely with this move. If the media doesn't hate him already, he'll have no support now outside of Houston.

    McHale is a clown and was a terrible coach during his tenure here. Harden carried the team on his back and masked McHale's incompetencies. Well said James.

    people keep waiting on something to "light a fire" under harden.

    maybe he's just someone that just doesn't have that in him? nothing wrong with admitting that.

    when it comes to mchale, while he may had some truth to what he said about harden not being a leader, coaches throwing their past players under the bus has always been a bad look to me. you wasn't saying all that when you were coaching him.

    harden left mchale and that era in the past and is trying to move on and mchale still won't let it go, so after a while harden is going to have to step up and defend himself when people keep throwing shots, and i'm fine with that.

    If Harden did get McHale fired than you have to add that display of leadership to his resume.

    Do you remember Harden's first two games as a Rocket...he broke NBA records. I can get behind the claim McHale didn't really teach him much.

    I'm not even one to bash coaches, but will when they lose the lockerrom like McHale did...he lost both his superstars. So even being someone who never participated in the Fire McHale stuff that started in season 1, I can believe Harden here, based on the first two games alone.

    He could have chosen a different phrase/term, but I agree with James.

    This has been a long time coming.
