James Harden freezes up in the closing moments a decisive Game 6 loss.
The Ayesha Curry malarky is just that. Steph’s wedded wife faced a ton unwarranted criticism this past for simply showing herself to be humanly susceptible to jealous insecurities.

One in particular resorted to blowing up a meme he’d created James Harden and Steph Curry‘s at the marriage altar. The Twitter user did just as he was told, converting the meme into a lifesize poster, which he then brought to Game 6 the Rockets-Warriors series at the Toyota Center – live and direct.
