    Harden doesn't believe in curses, nor do I.

    [Media Conspiracy]

    I was gonna post in @topfive's thread but why so many articles & videos and analysis on Harden?

    "How to slow down James Harden"
    "How to guard James Harden"
    "How teams are guarding James Harden"
    "How to stop James Harden"
    "Breaking down James Harden"

    "Well he's a great player. It's a sign of respect."

    But I don't see weekly/monthly videos on "how to slow" Stephen or LeBron or KD or AD or Giannis or Paul George or Kawhi or Russell or pick a superstar.

    the earlier its out the better

    so harden, cp3, mda, & morey can begin developing counters/alternatives

    by the time playoffs start defenders are back to square one

    Maybe because James is on the greatest scoring run in over 55 years?

    Lol I would feel this way if it was Shane battier details....so I guess we gonna act as if Kobe was just great defender lol. Harden would cook his ass too. Ain't worried he did one on harden last year guess what. James still cooked everybody

    I’m not worried about it but ummmmm Kobe Bryant was an excellent defender, especially when you consider his offensive load
