the overall rating is low because well, overall harden has some glaringweaknesses...despite that, in the game...he'll easily be one of the top 2-3 offensive players.
Harden was 92 in last years game. Paul George is a really nice player but shooting 41% from the floor and not being a particularly gifted playmaker means in my eyes he's not quite on Hardens level yet. Draymond Green and Klay Thompson being rated the same is absolutely laughable. Thompson is ELITE as a shooter. ELITE. But that's the only well above average aspect of his game. He has a poor handle, he isn't a gifted slasher, zero post game. Doesn't rebound (look at this rebound numbers) and is not a playmaker. Absolutely disgraceful he is a 90 and equal with Harden, just pathetic. And don't even get me started on Kawhi. Great player, hell of a player. No way he's a 93.
Because Harden might actually have some glaring flaws in his game. He's probably pretty highly rated offensivly. This notion that the sports world is out to get Houston of all places is absurd. People outside of Rocket fandom don't have a high opinion of him. That's just the way it is. No underlying conspricscy. I've never met a non rocket fan at least here in the Boston area that 'enjoys' watching Harden.
