    Great stuff; it would help having Delfino down there practicing D on them, if coach insists on putting him at the 4.

    Awesome. I also noticed a couple of post up possessions for Harden in last night's game.

    By Jupiter's Hammer, we could use a legit post player. A designed post play now and then would go a long way in giving the team a mini-breather on the court. D-Mo could be that man.

    T-Rob also said something like "[Harden] is trying to get his postgame right" in his practice interview. I remember seeing him posting up and backing down Foye(iirc) last game.

    Pretty cool, it would add a nice dimension to his game. I've always been impressed by Kobe and Wade's post-game.

    Why wasn't Lin allowed to work out with the bigs?

    Clearly McHale doesn't respect Lin.

    Harden is a giant mound of muscle (+epic beard) I bet he can knock our young 'bigs' around pretty easily.

    Lin knows what he is. Great players stick to what they're good at. Harden is jack of all trades and good at none. Harden now take bad shots from post for cheap fouls.

    Nice. I said earlier this season that Harden should add a post game in the off season. Lin actually could add one as well seeing as how he often has the size & strength advantage over a lot of NBA guards. Despite his stellar play this season Harden still has so many areas where he can improve.

    Lin has tons to work on before he adds a post game. He has to get his ballhandling to at least average level before he thinks about adding anything else.

    He already has a few post moves. I have seen him post up JJ Barea last year & this year as well as Nate Robinson from this year.

    Harden should play PF instead of Delfino.

    Our bigs lack muscle and get bullied by SG Harden.
