    This might default to 480, so change your settings in the video options.
    fwiw: this is large, if cell charges are a concern.

    Watching this, I’m not sure what people expected from harden. He made the right play every time the ball was in his hands and he was getting trapped, and drove when he finally got an iso.

    Harden got PJ and open look at the basket off a drive and he missed it and also created that tucker 3 but he was out of bounds.

    Chris Paul was the one not even looking to get the ball back to harden and doing nothing with the ball when he had it.

    There are possessions when harden doesn’t really touch the ball because Chris Paul is dominating.

    Here's the Draymond 3ptr after Paul turnover/charge and the technical foul.



    Their very next possession was the Klay 3ptr after PJ stepped out of bounds.

    Harden isn't moving or calling for the ball. Should Paul pass it to him anyway?

    nobody moves in this offense. That’s the point.

    Chris Paul should pass it to him when he’s 3/14 and sorry.

    take step back 3 and make all of them ...

    in all likelihood, Harden learn from the past two games at Houston and stop forcing it so much... but maybe he over correct it a bit

    Let's not be ambiguous, which play? You can provide a timestamp from video in OP.

    The one where he turned the ball over on a charge by draymond for once.

    Also the play where Chris Paul got blocked by looney.

    Don't be lazy, watch the video and talk about a play. It's fun to do that.

    Like this:

    We do like to run Paul 4 on 4, if Harden can pull his man away from the action. (See the Paul drive for foul with Capela in perfect rebounding position, at 31sec mark. Also, on that play (watch carefully at beginning) Harden passed forward to Gordon in transition to maybe get a quick hit on Curry.)​

    1:58?

    Well harden only comes on screen with 15 seconds left and he's just walking.


    But yes maybe he should have passed it then

    They like to run Paul 4 on 4 most of the fourth quarter?

    1:09. Harden too tired to get open so tells Tucker to swing it the other way. Gordon hits a tough 3.

    1:40 dribbles out most of the shot clock then drives and passes it to Tucker for a contested layup which he misses

    1:56 only crosses half court with 15 seconds left on the shot clock. They run the Chris Paul "4 on 4" but he commits a charge

    2:14 again dribbles out most of the shot clock before driving and kicking to Gordon. But the pass is off and Gordon isn't open, but he drives and kicks to Tucker for an open corner 3. Unfortunately he stepped out of bounds
