    It's good statement. And you know what fear it is? It's fear of the unknown. If you're facing off against Harden, you don't know how he's going to eviscerate you that night. Could be draining threes. Could be punching to the basket. Could be finding Capela or an open shooter. Or like last night, all three of those. Or something else. He played a post-up possession yesterday that was just beautiful.

    Harden is a Lovecraftian entity: an unknown that you can't comprehend, and that's terrifying.

    That would be consistent.

    Otherwise, they would be biased.

    OP:


    Where is the original picture of Harden, Kobe and Jordan?

    Harden only gets one unless he wins it all

    I respect this take. Sounds right on. This is exactly the state of the league from a players standpoint.

    If Harden is made of stardust, then we've answered the question, there is a little bit of Harden in all of us. MVP.

    This is just another confirmation of the old saying around here: "fear the Beard" it's just too bad people are catching on a tad too late. But well, it's better too late than never... get my drift? Oh by the way, it's not just the players and coaches that fear the Beard -- those are the obvious. The refs fear the Beard too. That's why, oftentimes, they don't know what to do with their whistles when it comes to the Beard's bag of tricks and wizardry on the court.

    So I guess the players that talked to Bucher are NOT the same players that talked to Windhorst. Remember Windhorst at the All Star break talking about how the players didn't like Harden and him getting all the foul calls?
