    Chris Paul and his contract need to go away.

    Harden: 36-7-7... What have you been up to?

    Yea but Id say those accolades hold more weight than Blake's improvement.

    Thats a big difference man. Vegas odds usually come out right most of the time.

    Hard to do a exit interview - when Harden jumps on first thing out of Houston shortly after the game

    Tell me his stats with 2minutes to go with tight game. Dont forget turnovers, possesions he passed to teammates with 3seconds left and time he had ball in his hands within these two minutes

    Paul: oh you calling me lazy? How about not walking the ball up the court and dribbling for 16 seconds while we all stand and look at you?

    Harden: How about 4 on 4 while my Man guards me at half-court. Surely a HOF PG can get us a good shot, no?

    Its no narrative. His goat averages set his ceiling. He looks like worst version of Westbrook when it matters. He is a choker and after these playoffs its undeniable

    You do realize that there aren’t many players in the entire NBA who have the ball in their hands more than Chris Paul.(yes Harden is 1 out of the 7 who do)

    This season Harden on average held the ball for 6.37 seconds every time he touched it. Chris Paul 5.64

    Let’s be real hear. If Harden holds the ball too long, what exactly did Paul do?

    Yeah seriously. Harden may be holding the ball too long, but at least he produces. What exactly did CP3 do?

    lol- how can anybody else produce if he dribbles for about 18 seconds (then takes a shot) which hes good at. but to ask anyone else to produce more than him when hes doing that the whole game is absurd

    Yes it's great for the Capela's and Tucker's of the world but...
    Watching Harden dribble dribble dribble his life away is shitty to watch.
    That offense is also shitty for other superstars to play in.
    Same offense rendered Lou Williams useless.

    Paul: gaurds you at half court? Gtfo James. Can we just run offense? Your beautiful averages might come down though...
