    Pay this dude everything he wants, we are so lost without him

  2. Must mean the world to the kid. Thankfully James saved the day after the refs BS no call against Tatum

  3. Can’t imagine a better Harden game for this, MVP performance and the game winner

    This whole thing is beautiful. I’ve been a little soft on Harden lately, but watching him this game was awesome. And I’m so happy for John.

    For those that don’t know, he’s a survivor of the MSU shooting

  6. the dad’s trying to hold back tears šŸ™

    That was fucking awesome.

    I wanted the sixers to lose as a neutral, but this moment after harden hitting the winner makes their W all worth it.

    Amazing

    Dude hits dagger 3s, puts young women through college, and then does this?

    Saint Harden.

    Popularity redemption series of a lifetime for Harden

    List of things that allow James Harden to go off:
    – Strippers / Vegas
    – Hero fans in attendance

    Give John Hao sidelines seats every game from here on out.

    JJ Watt got all the credit – but I watched James Harden give a $2 million check to the Mayor of Houston right after Harvey. No media, no fanfare, no nothing. Just doing a good thing because he wanted to.

    always been a harden hater in the playoffs. but how can you even hate on his game after game 1 and this one.

    Amazing moment. You can see how much it means to the kid and his family. James Harden is the man.

    Harden needs to fly this dude out to every game the rest of the series

    Step back out of the narratives surrounding these guys basketball-wise and take a look at the person they are out of the uniform.

    For someone who has endured so much personal tragedy that permanently affects the rest of their lives forgot all of that for a brief moment because his favorite player FaceTimes him, gets him tickets to a game where he balls out, and then signs a pair of shoes for him.

    That’s something that young man will commit to memory forever and that’s something not everyone can give to someone else. Good guy Harden

  16. As a fellow paraplegic I think I’m allowed to say that the plus side to all of this is that he can actually wear these shoes and they won’t wear out.

    One of the victims was my cousins room mate and best friend, they’d been friends since 12 and under baseball. That was the first shooting that really hit home and effected me emotionally. What Harden has done for this young man makes me tear up, we need more of this.

    STOP naming shooters in the news!
    STOP showing their pictures!
    STOP giving shooters attention!
    RAISE UP victims and survivors!

    TV stations using shooters and their stories as rating boosters to sell more iphones and shampoo is something we as a society need to come together and say no more.
