    It’s not hardens freakish scoring that forces teams to create new defensive scheme to stop him but the combination of the scoring and his elite playmaking/ passing that makes him impossible to stop on a regular basis. He can kill you with in multiple fashion. He makes others better and obviously one on one he is a all time great.


    Sometimes when he shoots to many threes is the only time he looks bad. It’s fair to say he is his own worst enemy at times

    I didnt read his quote but my first thought was, he's changing his tune cause a lot of former players and current players were giving him **** for being so disrespectful.

    Him saying that crap wasn't even the worst part... Once Harden responded back, every game after he looked like azz...

    Hope they give Lebron the MVP so he can feel what it's like to be 2nd in the media eyes.

    He’s one injury away from being on the bench for life.. without that athleticism and off-arm he might as well be Bruno Caboclo.

    They made some interesting points

    Harden is a good offensive threat but the key to being a great scorer/winner is to do so in the flow of an offense. That is what is currently missing

    Giannis is remaining humble since he is still waiting on his green card and giannis has been living in the states with a temporary work permit!

    Giannis is sooooo superficial!

    Alright... whose mouth talking major hate behind the thicc micc? He proves the point that it's media driven and fabricated. You got two bonafide stars saying he the hardest to guard and we got to listen to this guy trying to convince his audience that Harden fabricates points.

    Take away Harden's FTs and he still leads NBA in scoring.

    Do your job better Bomani Jones.

    Stopped listening when Bomani started talking. Dude is literally isolated, go watch some film or something to educate yourself.

    Personally, I also felt like Giannis’ comment was genuine and not forced or him trying to make amends. I felt like he was trying to hold back a smile after his comment because of how awkward it was for him to say that.

    But hey as they say: if they hate you, that means you’re doing something right.

    I'd like ESPN to bring back Cheap Seats with Jason and Randy Sklar. Still trying to run sports talk shows when there's no sports is nutty. Do something else.

    this is such a garbage joke of a post...smh, do better with your trolling

    Good offensive threat? Lmao, stop the nonsense. The key to being a great scorer is being able to consistently get bucket after bucket in an efficient manner no matter what opposing defenses do to try and stop u.
