They say a picture’s worth 1,000 words. But you only need a couple to win.

TJames Hardenhere’s a lot to adjust to when you get to the League. Thunder rookie James Harden certainly seems shocked by what he’s seeing, huh?  How would you caption this picture? Let us know by submitting your entry.

Whoever writes the funniest caption will win a dope prize from our vault and see their name in Trash Talk next issue.
