    I can’t stand watching him walk around the court. It throws the rhythm of the team so off.

    Horrible.

    Just horrible.

    Do you hate how he had the most tipped balls this postseason? Or that he played his f’ing heart out against 4 all stars ?

    not a matter of hating.... was tenative in his 3pt shooting,... walked the ball up the court lackadaisically many times... and had a bunch of careless passes that got picked.

    it is what it is.

    Before opening this thread I read it as if you were talking a ref in the NBA. Official, "I hate it when harden steps on the court".

    Lol yeah whoops...confusing.

    I actually liked Harden’s play tonight for the most part. But I hate watching him walk around. He’s always playing in slow motion. It leads to the team getting out of rhythm and him throwing bad passes or shots.

    No one can question his defense these last few games though. He played very well on that end.

    The rockets need a backup PG who is isn't pure trash for when cp3 is inevitably hurt so Harden doesn't have to play PG. That's about it.

    If Ariza could do that like Harden and get half points of Harden get, we will win.

    Yeah. Harden can’t be your primary ball handler. He’s amazing as a secondary ball handler though.

    He's just tired, he's always tired at the end of games.

    Besides, no one can carry a team by themselves and expect to beat the Warriors, not even Lebron.

    This year's finals will end up just like last year with Lebron getting another L.

    It’s not a stupid thread though. All the analysts kept saying it as well. Harden walking around the court is bad for the Rockets.

    Furthermore, objectively, the rockets looked a lot better when he (or CP3) established the offense early in the shot clock.

    Too much walking around and dribbling isn’t good.

    We shouldn’t be flirting with an 8 second violation every time harden brings the ball up the court. Notice how this never happens with Chris Paul.

    Harden needs to take a page out of Paul’s book and do that as well. He’ll keep evolving if so.

    But as of now, I’m sick of him walking around a basketball court.

    Yeah the thing about being tired is that in other games Paul and Gordon played just as much. And better D. Yet they weren’t walking around or wasting 18 seconds before even making a move.
