    Is that Shannon Sharpe? Because he shouldn't be allowed to talk about basketball if he doesn't understand Harden is efficient. And I shouldn't watch this crap. It's like reading the comments section on an article. These guys are paid to be trolls.

    Heavily caveated in the title.

    I literally watched to see how they were going to spin this into a negative. They didn't disappoint.

    Shannon does not understand what the word Efficient means

    I love this new narrative - "Imagine what an actually good player like Steph or KD could do if they shot as much as Harden. They'd average 79 points!!! Lame ass flopping Harden can only get 40 a game!"

    Smh, see this is why Morey needs to make an appearance on these shows and not places like First Things First. Nobody even watches First Things First, and they’re not the ones who need to be educated.

    I brought this up in a different thread the other day. I’m telling you, the word efficiency has become one of those buzz words that has reached even the very fringe of NBA fans.

    The problem is, if you asked most people to actually explain who is efficient I bet most would just go straight to field goal percentage to tell you.

    They know the word, they know it’s something you want to be, but they still don’t understand it. And it’s sad.

    Undisputed guys just **** on Kawhi for missing 14 games. Said he should be disqualified for MVP. Finally someone in media pointed that out. Raptors are 11-3 without him. Kawhi gets 9 days off before suiting up to play the Rockets. While Harden is carrying an entire franchise on his back.

    Shannon, if there is an NBA player that ONLY shoots threes and his FG% is 40%, is that efficient? Oh btw, that player also leads the league in FTs made. Is that efficient? smh

    It's really frustrating. On Twitter the other day, the ringer put that article on harden showing he has one of the highest usage and I think the second best true shooting percentage along with a write-up of why he's so great and the twitterverse still replied saying, "look at all those attempts though", "damn he's ineffecient" and so on.

    Also without watching the posted videos, Shannon has a real talent for being the absolute dumbest guy in sports.

    Would love to know if Shannon supported Captain Inefficiency (Westbrook) two years ago...
