It appears that James Harden isn't listening to his friends' warnings about staying away from new girlfriend Khloé Kardashian. But he may be listening to Lamar Odom.

Odom's interview with Intouchweekly.com about his ex-wife has the Rockets star wondering whether a relationship with her is worth the trouble, Hollywoodlife.com is reporting.

Lamar Odom, Khloé Kardashian's Ex-Husband Warns James Harden He Is Wasting His Time

"This is some fatal attraction type of mess that James has found himself and he has no time for drama," a source told Hollywoodlife.com. "He didn't sign up for this! He wants no part of Khloe's bizarre relationship with Lamar. James saw Lamar's interview and was blown away by it. He was dumbfounded even.

"He thinks Lamar's gone to the point of no return, talking about how he will never let Khloe go. That actually scared James," the source added: "James is rethinking this whole Khloe situation and is starting to believe his NBA friends who told him she was bad for business. He's thinking about ending this before it gets too out of control."

Harden and Kardashian have been dating since at least June, when they were spotted together in Honolulu. Since then, multiple images of the couple have been posted to social media.

TMZ reported that Odom confronted Kardashian outside of SoulCycle, a spin fitness gym, before she flew out to see Harden in Houston.

Earlier this week, Odom expressed his undying love for his ex-wife in a rambling interview with Intouchweekly.com.

"I can't control it. We'll never part," Odom said. "I would never consider myself serious with another woman. To sum it up, if a man is attempting to court Khloé, he's probably wasting his time."
