Ty Lawson & James Harden - Instagram
The NFL season kicked off last weekend and it seems that everyone was tuned in, including Denver Nuggets point guard Ty Lawson. The 49ers beat the Cowboys pretty good, this past Sunday, with James Harden serving as the butt of the below joke.
Lawson (via his Instagram account) posted a Photoshopped picture of Harden wearing a coaching headset with the Cowboys logo on the side. The photo was captioned "Cowboys defensive coordinator."
Harden's seemingly poor defensive skills have been well documented throughout his career and can be most recently seen on the BBallbreakdown Vine profile.
