With the NBA season less than a month away, and COVID-19 still raging around the country, the NBA is doing what they can to preserve the health of players, staff, and the community.
So when it was discovered that James Harden was living it up in a strip club on Saturday night, it raised a lot of eyebrows in the NBA community.
Looks like James Harden was at the strip club last night

Going to the strip club isn’t normally a problem, but the current circumstances of the pandemic and all that has been going on with the Rockets have complicated matters. It should also be noted that the 8x All-Star was absent from individual team workouts last week.
Because the nba is about to start in a few weeks and players who bring covid to league would get suspend and the team would lose draft pick

This is why he can never lead his team to a title.. no leadership, bad example of what a leader of a team should be.. imagine lebron doing this or kawhi

Man if something like a disgruntled player causes teams to lose draft picks bc of new COVID rules
Player power will be at an all time high for guys that want out

Amid a troubling time for the Rockets, it’s just not a good look for Harden to be partying in a strip club right now, especially considering he’s got a history of having fin in those types of locations. He even got his jersey retired by one after spending $1 million.
Needless to say, the Beard will have to really show up this season if he wants to keep the critics at bay.
