The wait is finally over for the Los Angeles Clippers fans to witness four superstars together on their team. Days after the blockbuster trade, James Harden eventually laced up his shoes for the Monday night clash against the New York Knicks. While the fans were excited about Harden’s inclusion on the team, they also anticipated the new combination and revamped game plans. As expected, pundits were at it since the trade, however, on the other hand, the veteran sports analyst Skip Bayless went a step further.

The Clippers are already a star-studded team with players like Russell Westbrook, Kawhi Leonard, and Paul George. Even though the Harden trade is a big deal, the immediate response to the trade was, who is going to handle the ball? The NBA pundit has a timely response to it as well. Let’s find it in detail.

Skip Bayless gives out verdict on James Harden’s debut

James Harden finally donned the Clippers’ jersey after missing out on the initial games due to his trade saga. The four stars took to the court for the first time together. The combination went smoothly and the team also claimed their lead in the first quarter itself. While fans took their time to process the new team. Bayless had something to comment on immediately.

Bayless had his verdict out on the blockbuster trade within minutes into the game. Moreover, he also took a sly dig at the former MVP, Russell Westbrook. Bayless wrote, “So far it is very clear the Clippers’ offense must run through Harden, not Westbrook,” via his X handle. He further dug deeper and left a harsh comment on Russ, “Harden is the new orchestrator – a far more gifted passer than Russ.”

Importantly, as usual, he didn’t step aside from his long-standing beef with LeBron James. He added, “I must admit I’m more focused on the Harden game at the Garden than the LeBron game in Miami.”
