    Surely all of the Parsons fans are gone by now! He's fading out of memory like Vspan. There still seems to be a lot of DMo fans around though.

    A lotta moves look like travel in the NBA.
    Harden's euro move to the basket sometimes look like 3 steps.

    A star player like harden can travel to the 3 point line and that's ok cause he's harden. It's like taking a hop step to the rim but backwards.

    The end.

    Ridiculous.... It’s the NBA, where refs admit, they will miss calls. But the fundamental move of the step back isn’t a travel, does he travel on occasion? Is water wet!

    Refs are busy watching the defense, illegal picks, touch fouls, etc... They are aware that players will try to push the envelope, but why castígate only Harden and give the rest of the NBA a pass? Because Maxi Kellerman, Skip Baseless, Barkley, etc don’t like Hardens /or are always attacking his style. Either you are a troll, or you have unresolved issues (if you were a fan and want more rigid rules applied to Rocket players - wow!!)

    The actual game refs have studied it on film and all agree he's not traveling, yet you still disagree with them? Nicely done.

    Dude, the NBA set the precedent allowing LeBron to travel all over the place. At least James and his trainers found a way to stay within the confines of the rules. You don’t think the NBA already has a conversation with James and his team about this move? It’s a modified euro step. Open your mind and actually do the intellectual thinking and investigate AND stop embarrassing yourself claiming to be a HardenMVP fan. Go rockets in 4

    Harden just moves so fast though. He has elite speed.

    I'm just glad someone finally had the balls to call Harden out on this, because literally NOBODY has been talking about it!!!!!!!!

    So we have inside word from a ref that it’s not to travel, and we broke it down in slow motion and itd not a travel. what is the Argument? That some refs would call a travel? Well then they would be wrong.

    Harden can take as many steps as he wants if this wasn't called.

    There’s no point in arguing about this... If you think it’s a travel, you don’t know the rules. Simple as that. It’s not a travel. Move on.
