During the debate, Mad Dog reminded the fans that Harden did not hold his end of the bargain as well. Russo talked about Harden’s everlasting drama with every team he plays, asking, “When is enough?”
Although Harden may have been a top-tier scorer throughout the regular season, he has a track record of struggling during the postseason. Harden's poor postseason performances against San Antonio, the Golden State Warriors, and the Boston Celtics were brought up by Russo.
“He has never responded with the chips on the line. So, any team out there that wants to bring him in, you are making a horrific mistake.” Mad Dog added insult to injury when he told Stephen A., “With your life on the line Stephen A., you would not want Harden on your ball club. You know that.”
