Furious fans blame James Harden for the LA Clippers‘ latest concern. The team slipped out of the contention to clinch the West’s top seed after losing four out of their last five games. Tonight, they took on the Atlanta Hawks and suffered a humiliating 93-110 loss. Following the game, the fans were quick to point out the impact that Russell Westbrook’s absence has on the team. On top of it, fans paraded together to blame Harden for his inconsistency.

In his last four outings, Harden failed to score at least 15 points. Above all, he also sat out for two consecutive games with a left shoulder strain. Amid this concern, the team has already lost Westbrook for an indefinite period owing to a finger fracture.

Responding to the Clippers’ current situation, a fan said, “They need Russ and Powell so damn bad,” as a solution to resurrect the team from the recent slump.

Another user mocked the Clippers fans who relied on the team to do without the former MVP.

Another fan went all the way out to list down Russell’s qualities that he brings to the court.

Reacting to Harden and Bones Hyland’s performances in the first three quarters, a fan released his steam off in the comments.

This user poured his suggestions out for the Clippers HC Tyronn Lue for the upcoming games.

Leaving the fans’ outcry aside, James Harden missed his mark tonight. As one of the best superstar guards in the league, The Beard didn’t even attempt to make buckets in this game. In the first three quarters, he missed all his 7 FG attempts and saved himself from further embarrassment by dropping 9 points in the last quarter.

On the other side, Russell Westbrook‘s absence played a crucial role. Before his injury, the former MVP took up the role of leading the team’s second unit and churned in more support from the bench. After his absence, however, the bench points have considerably reduced. Tonight, the Clippers’ bench dropped 17 points while the Hawks’ bench contributed 40 points.
