Did James Harden go clubbing with Drake before Game 3?
By Mike Dyce
Some Twitter users say James Harden poor performance in Game 3 was a result of partying with Drake the night before.
The Houston Rockets were destroyed by the Golden State Warriors in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals at the Toyota Center. The Rockets lost 115-80, or by 35 points.
MVP candidate James Harden had 17 points but an awful 3-16 shooting from the field, 1o of those points coming from free throws.
So what happened to James Harden? Was it the Lil B curse that has afflicted Oklahoma City Thunder star Kevin Durant all these years?
Well some Twitter users seem to think that there is a different explanation for his performance. They say Harden was at V-Live partying with Drake the night before the game, and that the residual effects from that night out on the town impacted his performance.
Seen James Harden sneak in V-Live last night. That might explain it lmao

Now these are just two tweets. Either Harden went and was considerably pretty good at hiding, or he found a club with the most anti-social media patrons of all time. If Harden was in a club on Friday night, surely there would’ve been more than two tweets.
And we assume this goes without saying but just in case it doesn’t, these are just a couple of guys and Twitter so let’s not assume that this is fact.
