The Houston Rockets’ trade of James Harden to the Brooklyn Nets may have arrived at a convenient time for Harden because, well, he wanted out. But the same probably can’t be said for his soon-to-be-opened Houston restaurant.
According to The Houston Chronicle, Harden was set to open a fine-dining restaurant and steakhouse called Thirteen — after his jersey number — at the end of the month. Despite the trade, the restaurant is still on track to actually open.
But in the meantime, the unopened restaurant’s Google profile has provided an outlet for angry Rockets fans to vent their frustration over the trade. Plenty of fans have turned to flooding Thirteen with terrible reviews.
Just look at the Google profile’s featured image.
Oh man. The actual reviews didn’t hold back either.

As the rating for Harden’s restaurant cratered, some gracious Rockets (and Nets) fans did come in with five-star reviews to counteract all the one-star ratings.
Once the restaurant opens, the Yelp moderator is going to stay busy — that’s for sure.
