Trina "Diamond Princess" and James Harden... |
During the NBA Playoffs James Harden continued his stellar performance posting 18.3 pts, 4.3 asts, 5.5 rebs, and 50% fg ousting the defending 2011 NBA Finals Champion Dallas Mavericks in a 4 game sweep. Harden then faced Metta World Peace and the Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Semifinals. In a hotly contested battle between the Lakers and Thunder Harden posted 16.0 pts, 2.2 asts, 4.6 rebs, and 35.8% fg while dodging elbows and playing against his "new" arch nemesis. Against the Lakers we can look at Harden's field goal percentage 35.8% as a knock but Harden's best performances was yet to come as the Thunder headed into the 2012 Western Conference Finals with the San Antonio Spurs.
Western Conference Finals James Harden sub-plot was well scripted as he faced off versus Sixth Man extraordinaire Manu Ginobli in a battle to prove who was the best NBA Sixth Man. During the Western Conference Finals James Harden was prime averaging 18.5 pts, 3.7 asts, 5.5 rebs, and 49.3% fg. Harden proved once again that he was the new star on the block outshining Manu Ginobli and the San Antonio Spurs winning four straight games and grabbing the momentum in route to the Thunder's first NBA Finals appearance and creating Thunder history.
During the Spurs series different stories started to emerge as Lil Wayne complained about how Thunder execs did not welcome his presence at the Western Conference Finals in Oklahoma City. No one put the pieces together at the time but this story started to evolve into a outspoken head scratcher. What was Lil Wayne doing in OKC? "no offense but OKC is not just some random location you go on vacation or to discover the roots of hip hop". Why would Lil Wayne be attending a Thunder series game when his "Daddy" Birdman is a devoted Miami Heat fan?
In May of 2012 a story popped up about Lil Wayne possibly having late night rendezvous with rap artist Trina (James Harden's GF) spotted at a late night Miami nightclub. Shortly after rumors circled underground that Lil Wayne was in OKC visiting Trina Harden's girlfriend.
The web of deceit has been sewn the fabric stitched but yet no one wants to bring up the obvious. Yes, playing under the bright lights of the NBA Finals can be a difficult task knowing the world is watching as you perform on the NBA's grandest stage. Yet, this is nothing different its Hardens everyday work right? Harden is not new to the bright lights since his college career at ASU Harden has been in the spotlight his oversized Beard and old man style has never wavered his always been a solid performer.
James Harden is currently averaging 11.7pts , 3.7 asts, 3.3 rebs and 40.7% fg in the NBA Finals versus the Miami Heat. Notice there's a lot of Miami connections going on here as Birdman Jr. continues
