04:42 PM ET 11.06 | James Harden has mostly moved on after he was suddenly traded to the Houston Rockets, but he couldn't help but admit that he was offended by one thing the Oklahoma City Thunder did before dealing him. Speaking to Yahoo! Sports, Harden said that he was "hurt" that he received only one hour to make a decision on the Thunder's four-year, $54 million final offer for a contract extension. "After everything we established ??? everything we had done ??? you give me an hour?" Harden said. "This was one of the biggest decisions of my life. I wanted to go home and pray about it. It hurt me. It hurt." The Thunder moved quickly because the Rockets wanted to complete the trade with enough time to prepare Harden's max contract extension before Tuesday's deadline.

I love how quickly the media starts hyping up their next story once one is over. Now that the Dwight saga finally ended the media is looking for the next story to beat into the ground. This one seems ripe until OKC starts playing well again.

SHOWTIME!!!

Ridiculous. How long does it take to accept or reject $54 million? Negotiations had been going on for months.

Stop crying Harden. This is a business, you and your manager know it and apparently you needed to make up your mind (which you couldn't) and your manager sucks at negotiating. End of story.
