    No I think Kawhi is the luckiest most overated player in the league and Harden is better than him.

    so you dont hate harden( glad we got that established), its more you hate the fact harden is not playing to his full potential like he could be if he were to go off-ball ,post up more, or cut in the lane to draw 2 or maybe even 3 defenders with him. Do you think Harden has the same type of on-court gravity that 2016 steph had, but that the rockets are not using his gravity the correct way to best maximize the skillset of the team

    I think Harden running around screens and doing curl actions would confuse defenses a lot because not only is he our best overall scorer, he is by far out best overall jumpshooter. And yes the reason I harp on this is because I feel like it's a correctable habit that takes one off-season of training to fix of he concentrated on it.

    And thanks for actually hearing me out rather than just outright dismissing it.

    So explain your eye test vs. what actually happened again?

    My suggestion would be Harden take an off-season (that’s all it would take) to learn how to fly.

    He then would easily be able to thwart the double and have better passing angles.

    The eye test says that Harden sees the double team coming and lets it happen, or he misses the opportunity to pass which allows the double team to collapse onto him. In other words, he let's himself be neutralized.

    Don't look at screenshots. Watch the plays unfold:

    Don’t bother here man, nothing you say could silence any of his stand. Harden moved off the ball more, just that, is probably stfu

    Bruh at this point you just love the role of antagonist. Kawhi takes over games at will (including last minutes of crucial games, regulary) at the level that is very rare
