I have grown to HATE JAMES FRAUDEN

Glad dat bich was banned.

 

when was he banned?

 

It really sucks defending Harden and then watching him struggle like this.

 

WTF is wrong with him?

 

Harden isn't taking what the defense is giving (a mid range shot) and instead is doing exactly what the Jazz want to drive to do and drive.

 

What about the trailing defender who is going to have a pretty easy look at a block from behind if he pulls up for the midrange?

Taking it all the way to the basket is avoiding the trailing defender.

 

I don't even really blame Harden. Nobody played him like this during the season so he didn't need to adjust. It's the culture Morey has installed and D'antoni's refusal to maybe take Harden aside and say, its ok to shoot that free throw line jumper you used to take every play for literally years while Mchale was coach.

 

It is absolutely brutal man

 

Stop crying

 

Then why defend him on a delusional level?

 

Ofc this crybaby thread pops up every year.

Feeds off the tears of the weak willed and weak minded

 

I think he is criticized to an unfair level, and clearly the overall media and casual nba fans are biased against him.

It is undoubtably true that he has more awful playoff games than other stars. Sad but true.

 

The reality of Harden is, he is a great playoff player. Just not a great “playoff performer”.

 

LETS GO GOOD START!!

 

Clint playing a brilliant game. Way to bounce back.

 

Yea I agree, he is not a scrub like many make him out to be. Dude is just way too prone to the duds.

 

Y u guys worrying? Our Offense is too strong for the Jazz.

 

Harden shot 37% in this series.. that ain't gonna cut it against the Warriors. For all the praise he's gotten during the regular season, Harden still has many holes in his game offensively.

 

lol the thread that keeps on giving

 

Despite bad shooting, Harden still put up 26 pts with 3 steals and 4 blocks.
