Harden sucks

Anyone that has watched Harden religiously can see that something is wrong. It’s hard to tell If it is schematic, mental, physical, or all three. He is playing some of the absolute worst basketball of his career.

Just gotta hope he climbs out of his own ass before the playoffs.

 

He is mailing it in. He doesn’t give 2 ****s

 

Actually Asian you could be on to something. Maybe it would shock him to understand whats going on. But you know he put up a triple double other day, but the turnover thing is just ridiculous. I watched Kawhi today and he is passing the ball everywhere to his teammates getting them set up for open shots. Harden needs to get his team involved, then they will be appreciated. I dont know, just take open shot ball movement, play some defense... lol

 

I am saying. . . he is not seeking fouls as much as people simply foul him to stop him

Not sure how he can be out of shape if he's averaging 37 minutes a game and when he plays virtually every game. He literally just played 46 minutes last night.

 

My thing is we hear all the time Harden is all about basketball and he puts in all this extra work. Then we see him play and he is just soooooo inefficient. I know he's dealing with double teams and different defensive schemes but to be soooooo off on point blank layups and just to settle and settle on a step back 3 to just brick and brick. Where is the drive within this guy? Where is that mindset that doesn't accept playing one bad game to the next? I don't know if he's dating one of these toxic Houston women but a lot has to change... and it has to change quickly.

 

Have you watched him play?

 

Ya I just don't know how someone who sees him play every game forms that conclusion.

 

I literally see players hit his arms, wrists and body nearly every drive

And I see Harden purposefully run into players, extend his arm out, hook players etc instead of just thinking about putting the ball in the bucket.

Harden got away from that for his 2017-2018 season
He's reverting back to it this season because he doesn't have his explosion from 2 seasons ago.
