    First, about Elvis. I did not know he is alive. I guess he would be a Memphis fan.

    Second, yeah, when refs get a new rule or some other team complains to the league office about a player getting away with this or that, they always overdo the enforcement, even to the point of calling other things: "They're watching me." Then there is the regression to the mean.

    the fact they even have a harden rule, while perennially ignoring kashi travels, GS moving screens and lebron pushoffs, etc.......points to just how severe this league has been corrupted

    Good thing, Kashi doesn't have to travel because he cannot get on the court.

    OK just watching the first few minutes of the sixers game, harden has been fouled 3 times going to the basket, and only got one call and it was super LATE

    Harden will not last the season if the refs will let defenders beat the hell out of him and not be called for fouls.

    Harden is worth close to 400 million to this franchise, we dont want another tmac situation.

    And the worst part is they are calling harden for ticky tack **** on the other end trying to limit his aggressiveness on defense and offense. Its not Hardens fault these teams like the knicks, and sixers suck and need refs help to win games and cant win on their own like the rockets

    Harden being a step slow to start the season isn't helping matters.

    I don't know how he would be a step slow. Harden has be balling all summer and even lost weight. What's slowing him down besides the crushing weight of the Rockets franchise of course?

    I would have thought the same thing...but he appears to be either holding back (possibly like Lebron does to start seasons) or something, b/c he just doesn't seem to have that same burst we're accustomed to at the moment.
