    If you apply skips commentary on anything to the season before, he actually starts to make sense.

    I’m just going to assume that everything he says is a year late, + or - 3 months.

    I saw where he passed it to Hartenstein . . . .and Harty fumbled it .. . . .I think that goes down as a Harden Turnover

    I kind of disagree with the point I keep seeing that "Harden gets the rim so effortlessly". No, he doesn't. Giannis makes it look effortless because he's so big and agile, but Harden often has to spend energy juking guys to get started, he sprints hard into the lane, and then he's chopped on his wrists when he tries a shot. His drives often look painful and tiring but he keeps going anyway.

    I've said before, Harden's conditioning is world class...........contrary to what many fans (especially Rocket fans) think/say. To do what he does and to carry that tremendous load EVERY year.....yeah.....an out of shape guy definitely couldn't do it. Harden is a tank and has World Class conditioning. Eye test tells me that.

    Flabbergasted. A good, salient, stats-backed breakdown of Harden's play by these two third-tier castoff commentators. Speechless. (except the part I just typed).

    He means shooting percentage which sometimes is the case(like in Orlando). But last night, it wasn't. He shot over .500 from the field.
