Lil B is at it again. After the Rockets dominating 4th quarter and win to go up 1-0 on the Thunder in game one of the playoffs Sunday night, the rapper took to Twitter to warn James Harden.
James harden please calm down with the lil b cooking dance sports celebration congrats for the okc win but watch the curse – Lil B

The Rockets star and MVP candidate cooked the Thunder to the tune of 37 points, 7 rebounds, and 9 assists. During one particular play in the 4th after Harden drove past Thunder big man Enes Kanter, and celebrated with the Lil B cooking dance. The “Based God” was clearly not pleased and let the Beard know.
Lil B has been a fixture around NBA circles and often pops up and takes credit for star players’ failings when he feels they don’t give The “Based God” his proper respect. You may remember the curse was put on Harden during the playoff series versus the Warriors in 2015 (note: Lil B is a Warriors fan), and allegedly continued during the 2016 season. B took credit for Harden’s subpar play in 2016.
But Harden may be curse proof. We have written on this site about Harden no longer dating Khloe Kardashian and that being the reason he is more focused and playing at an MVP level.
If the Rockets advance and Harden continues to cook it will be interesting to see how the “Based God” handles it.
