    Great win tonight!

    Hardens 3PT shooting and TOs will be a problem against good teams ( Spurs, Grizzlies ) hopefully he can figure that out by the playoffs.

    Pull up any of the top players in the league and run those same stats, lets see how they compare to Harden. My guess, is that most of the top players are worse against the top 10 defenses in the league.

    More news at 10.

    Look it up for yourself, their numbers don't drop nearly as much as Harden's against elite teams this season. Shooting below 50 TS% is a tragedy, which is what Harden is doing against teams with playoff level defense.

    So, basically you don't have any real evidence then. Thanks for posting.

    He made them. As long as he doesn't actually shoot Granny, let the cat have at it. ;)

    Because Harden is shooting below 50 TS% against top 10 defense, and commits 7 turnovers in 3 quarters against the Suns? His whole game is BS at this point.

    dwert, if you can't prove your points with real numbers and evidence and compare them to other top players in the league then you have no argument. You're just trolling at this point, man.

    Dude has only been with the board for a short time and I have yet to put anyone on my ignore list, but you're coming awfully close to crossing those boundaries. Come with something real, show me the evidence.

    I've proven my point already. If you're curious about other players, look it up for yourself. Do you not have fingers? do you know how to use google? realgm.com has all the info you need, what's the problem? I'm not interested in other players so that's your business.

    See, you're the one who made the claim so its on you to back that claim with real evidence and not just cherry pick stats and games of your choosing. If you're going to compare Hardens TS or efficiency numbers vs the top 10 defensive teams in the league then you need to do the same for the guys who are also the main dog on their own team and also do not have a legit 2nd option.

    This won't end well for you, btw.

    wow, you really don't know how to use internet or lazy AF.

    against top 10 defense,

    AD : 56.3 TS%

    http://basketball.realgm.com/player.../2017/By_Season/Advanced_Stats/Regular_Season

    Westbrook : 51.8 TS%

    http://basketball.realgm.com/player.../2017/By_Season/Advanced_Stats/Regular_Season

    All better than Harden. Harden shoots below 50 TS% against top 10 defense.
