Things between Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson are heating up and their romance is getting quite serious. But her ex James Harden feels Tristan should pump the breaks, warning him that she’s a huge ‘distraction,’ HollywoodLife.com is EXCLUSIVELY reporting.

Whoa, HollywoodLifers, is James Harden, 27, sipping on some hater-aide? It wasn’t too long ago the bearded man himself worshiped the ground Khloe Kardashian, 32, walked on. But now, the Houston Rockets star believes his ex is bad for everyone in the NBA and warns Tristan Thompson, 25, to watch out!

“Khloe was a good woman but she was also a curse,” a source close to James told HollywoodLife.com. “She was a huge distraction to James. It’s was always lights, camera, action with her and being on social media like it was a real 9 to 5. James was so caught up in her world that his game took a back seat and his performance on the court wasn’t up to par.”

“Best of luck to Tristan, though,” the source added. “[Tristan’s] days of being an NBA champ are over if he continues to date Khloe. James thinks he should have fun with her now but unload her once the season begins.” Way harsh!

Unfortunately for James, it doesn’t look like things are going to cool off between Khloe and Tristan anytime soon. In fact, the 6’9″ power forward/center has cemented himself into the family fold thanks to Kim Kardashian, 35, complimenting him every chance she gets. “Kim has never seen Khloe happier than she is right now with Tristan,” another source EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife.com. “She can see her settling down with someone like him because he’s got everything going for him. He’s very mature for his age, knows what he wants and treats Khloe like a princess.”

HollywoodLifers, do you think Khloe will be a distraction to Tristan and his NBA career?
