lol he got rested this game as well. Must be nice to play 28 minutes, have Lou carry your offense while your ass is planted on the bench, only to come in the beginning of the 4th quarter and refs call 4 consecutive foul calls on your defenders on one trip. Kawhi is a great player but he has also forced himself into situations that make him look great. Let's see him play 40+ minutes a game all season, without major star power, and then carry his team in the post season to a championship.
no doubt that has something to do with it. but he is clutch he seems to always hit the shots at the end he’s a stud. I just think from a talent standpoint we’re watching something special with harden something never seen before he’s so good. he’s a joy to watch if you actually know basketball and I think that’s why coaches and players respect him so much but media and fans don’t. he’ll never get the proper recognition, unless he wins chips. Not just 1 he needs multiple. the fact that ppl like bill Simmons compare harden to Gervin is disrespectful. George is was a stud but he isn’t even in the same stratosphere as harden. u got guys on the internet like Matt Moore who says guys like dame Lillard gets harden type Defensive treatment and Even worse that harden is only a little bit better player? wtf is that Lillard has his team at 5-10 harden is 11-5 and missing main pieces As is Lillard expect the win lose is flipped. also iv never seen teams run two guy at one player as soon as he get past half court. double from a screen with a trap sure but not standing 45 ft from the basket with no other player coming to set a screen. Teams are that scared of harden they want the ball out of his hands 50 feet from the hoop. we’re in uncharted territory with the beard.
I keep saying this but if you think the NBA is rigged stop watching it. Let us assume you are correct and the NBA is rigging these games. What is the use of complaining about these calls? If the NBA is rigged they wont change the result just because you are complaining. If their goal is to let the Clippers win then the Clippers will win no matter what the Rockets do, simple as that. So stop watching the games then cuz you know how it turns out the Rockets lose the Clippers win. GG no re. You are somehow insisting the NBA is rigging these games but at the same time hoping they will be fair and change these calls in the future. That doesn't make any sense if you think NBA fairness is compromised then don't patronize it i.e. stop watching it.
I am saying,,, Dont claim that Refs have nothing to do with the outcome of the game in the same game where they definitely were. I can watch the games and also call out what I see. I watch the games to see gifted players like Harden play the game. Too bad it comes in a package where I have to do also deal with shitty commentators and clown officiating.
their not rigging the games. but their main supporters Disney controls the narrative and California will always get more attention so it seems on tv that everything is going against your team if your not LA or GS. nobody in Cali likes sac lol I know I lived their it Sucks.
If the refs have something to do with the outcome then they are rigging the games. Why will the refs have something to do with the results for no reason? Do you think the refs are rigging the games or not? You don't want to answer because you don't want to address the cognitive dissonance in your head. You don't just watch the game to see gifted human players, you also watch to see the result which is why you are upset right now. Like I said you claim refs have ill intent but at the same time you want a fairly officiated match. That's like calling a dude a robber but expecting him not to break in your house and not steal stuff. My suggestion to you is if you think the Refs are interfering with the results then don't watch it for the results and complain about the fairness of the match. In the WWE the wrestler pull chairs under the ring and knockout the refs to win unfairly, people don't complain about that stuff cuz they know it is all fake.
Of course he did but a combo of things killed us. Refs were out to get Rox tonight with all silly calls (3 in 30 seconds). Sloppy play/turnovers. Bad FT shooting from the stars. And why are open players consistently overlooked and the ball always ends up in Harden’s hands to make a decision? I really think Clemons would’ve hit the last shot. He was wide open in the corner. But the inbound guy was looking for harden.
Harden does such push-off most of the time to create space. Hell even Jordon did this in the final shot of the last game with the Bulls. Nothing new here. Tough loss none the less.
