Harden has to do 2 things to shake the best “offensive” player label. He has to obviously win a ring. He also had to play lock down defense one multiple stars on his way to that championship. Life isn’t always fair.
That’s what Morey wants to. Morey wants to elevate the platform of his stars. To show other stars how star friendly we are. Morey is the NBA’s best hype man!
I get this, but shouldn't the Warriors be the NBA villains? Harden seems like the only player in the league posing a real threat to Golden State, yet gets more hate than anyone.
Guys his step back 3, its a travel. ok guys. its a travel. I saw the video posted on social media. He did a step back step back. He's clearly traveling on that move. All his step back 3's should be taken out of the game. Once that happens, you guys will see, he sucks. ............................kill me.
That’s just it, It’s Harden-hate not the Rockets. Nobody talks about KD and his carries, Draymond’s nut-kicks and Big mouth. Pachulia and Bogut injuring people.
Do you pick Harden or LeBron first for your team if you need to win a seven game playoff series? That’s not the only way of looking at it, but I think that’s essentially how most people look at the question of best overall player. For merely “best offensive player” people tend to ignore the hypothetical question of who would win in the playoffs and focus just on skills and impact in a typical NBA game.
What is overlooked often about Harden, is that even when he is looking for a foul with his weird shooting motions, he would probably make the shot if he wasn't fouled. Most of the time, the ball hits the rim when he is fouled, and often the ball goes in for an AND 1.
They're just looking for someone to vote for 2nd place in MVP race otherwise it'd be boring if Giannis wins without any opponents.
