James Harden kicks LeBron James in the groin (Video)
By Sam Richmond
James Harden was awarded a flagrant foul for kicking LeBron James where the sun don’t shine during the Cleveland Cavaliers–Houston Rockets game on Sunday.
Not cool, James Harden. Not cool. The Houston Rockets shooting guard did what no man should ever do on Sunday, as he kicked a fellow brethren where the sun don’t shine.
Harden’s victim: none other than LeBron James.
The play earned Harden a flagrant foul, but more importantly he lost points with men everywhere. He should also be expecting a suspension given the league’s history in ruling when a similar instance happened in the past involving James’ former teammate Dwyane Wade.
Should be noted: Wade got suspended for doing to Sessions something similar to what Harden did to LeBron. League will likely look at it.
