    How about some video footage to back up this assertion?

    Do your fingers work? Look it up, educate yourself.

    Understood. You can't support your assertion.

    It’s between the leg crossover to behind the back, then stepback. That’s almost every other stepback 3 for Harden.

    To say he is incapable of that is just dumb.

    Does Harden do that against 3 defenders? No. Again, Harden is great at iso-ball after hunting for mismatches. But improvising on the fly? Curry is easily better. If you disagree, can you provide footage supporting your assertion?

    The widely regarded best offensive player in the league and one of the best all time-by most experts and players-is incapable of basic moves?
    Your argument is just dumb and biased. It’s not worth the time to post videos.
    You are just flat out wrong, and your hate for Harden and love for Steph is a little suspect.

    You could very easily disprove me by providing videos (which you claim are easy to find). But for whatever reason, you refuse. That's what's suspect.

    There are more videos of Harden destroying defenders than there is of Curry.
    Be smarter, look it up. Educate yourself. Or just don’t talk basketball because it really doesn’t suit you.

    Again, Harden is great in iso-ball after hunting for mismatches. But when it comes to improvising on the fly, Curry is clearly better.

    That's my argument, and that'll always be my argument.

    Stop trying to reframe it. You're embarrassing yourself.

    Just go support the warriors. You clearly are not a Rockets fan . A troll who comes here from time to time to troll/stir up crap with you’re harden anger issues. It’s downright embrassing.

    Their championship windows are much more than 2 years.

    And you’re still wrong, no reframing needed. You are clearly not an intelligent basketball mind, so there isn’t much more to say other than you’re wrong.

    Harden isn't the Rockets. I was a Rockets fan before Harden came, and I'll be one after he's gone.

    That doesn't mean I can't appreciate great players on other teams. And that doesn't mean I should let my homerism cloud my objectivity.

    You know what would really help your argument? Some footage of Harden's ball-handling when he's forced to improvise.

    You know what would help you? Realizing that every iso is an improvisation. You’re denigrating a player to support a false assertion.
    You double down on it with one video.
    There isn’t any reason for me to go do the work for you, look it up and see if Curry takes defenders as easily as Harden.
    If you can’t see it after that, it’s just your bias coming through.

    In other words, you're unwilling to support your assertion. Understood.

    No, it just means you’re wrong and too dumb to know it.
