Harden on Giannis: “I wish I could just run and just dunk. That takes no skill at all.”

I would say out of all the players in the league he is the most likely to be like LeBron in that he will be the unanimous "best player" for the next 5-10 years. He's already on his way to an excellent start getting most likely back to back MVPs before 26 years of age.

 

I saw many members from the hot take sports shows mention Harden leading the league in assists.

For me, calling a superstar player a ball hog is a low blow but it's a low blow that has been directed towards even the most renown players ever such as Jordan.

Saying they have "no skill" is just stupid.

 

Foot work is a skill. Not many 7 footers on the planet have that footwork and quickness.

If Gainnis isn't skilled, tell me the difference between Gainnis and a prime Javale Mcgee or DeAndre Jordan.

 

I don't think Harden would deny that Giannis is dominant, and has skills that make him dominant. But I wonder if him being a near-elite post defender himself allows him to come to that conclusion. It definitely appears that he's had this thought for a while. Given the sample size of Giannis trying to score on Harden, I believe Harden feels like Giannis' game is one-dimensional. Not that he's figured him out, but Harden must be thinking Giannis can't even touch him in the skills department.

 

This is a dumb post.

 

he is 7 feet tall and just scores, rebounds, gets assists and wins...no skill

 

No one likes you. Go away.

 

Why do you and Durvasa care so much about Gigantus' feelings?

 

That is is irrelevant to the point that your post was dumb.

 

Why do you care so much about putting down another player to prop the one you fondle nuts for?

Harden is more skilled than Gainnis. No one disagrees with that. Giannis definitely has skill.

 

Doing that vs. Primarily East teams, big whoop.

 

Dumb post.

 

Chowd always thinking about fondling nuts ... I knew it!!!!

You are a pervert amirite?

 

So one is an outright lie and the other is a vague exaggeration.

Figures you side with the liar.

 

"No skill" is as much of an "exaggeration" or an "out right lie" as saying someone doesn't pass. Both are absurd exaggerations of reality. One is more insulting as no one would ever consider a elite player "not skilled".

 

Are you hurt that Gigantus was insulted?

It sounds like you're really taking this personal.

Interesting for a Rockets fan.

 

Its trash talk dude, people shouldnt get so serious about it or take it so literally.

 

The back and forth few CFers are having. I don't think anyone is denying Giannis isn't a good player. Both him and Harden are good. The issue people have is that that Giannis is taking shots at Harden multiple times publicly unprovoked.

Harden isn't a social media beefer like an Embid or J. Butler. Nor is he a Lebron with passive aggressive comments. Rachel bought up the subject, and Harden just kept it real. You don't have to 'take sides' to see Giannis deservedly got clapped back.

 

Giannis and the bucks are history in the making.

I'm afraid Harden is officially on the decline.

Harden's decline goes unnoticed because the disappointing 2018 game 7 performance was chalked up to cp3's injury. The cp3 injury was an excuse that was swept under the rug. The 2019 loss made it official yet the Raptors shocked the world.

People forget that Kawhi Leonard flys under the radar during the regular season. People also forget that Doc Rivers is a skilled coach too.

The media circus is just to keep Harden in the media yet Harden is on the decline!
