Guys in general man. Philly offense is watching Harden dribble for 15 seconds, no off-ball movement. I've seen this story before. In the Playoffs the talented players that they have are relegated to being spot up shooters. Embiid and Harden will be dominating the ball. Those two better play really well or else those other guys can't cover for them if they don't. The offensive responsibility is all on those two players.
off-ball and motion offense works when you have the talent to use it. If it was so easy to run. Every poverty nba franchise would be playing the warriors. How’s that off ball offense working for the rockets
It's working pretty well for the bucks, jazz, warriors, heat, suns, grizzlies, nuggets... Harden is really freaking talented, which is why his style might work, but that is A LOT of responsibility on a single player, and he has failed every time
I can… I mean we got posters predicting this type of bs cause you know Harden a basketball god. He can’t even help himself yet he was supposed to do all those things? I told you nahh. Just like I’m telling you and the rest …. he’s not winning a Championship. Looks like some of you are starting to understand. Coming up with different scenarios for the Sixers to avoid certain teams lol. What happened to the bravado and confidence from the first 67 or so pages. Harden is shooting 19-62 (31%) from the field over his last 4 games. Quite Westbrick esque if I may say. The same jokers who always defend Harden unconditionally are trashing Westbrick and always downplay his triple doubles and accomplishments. Talk about double standard. Anyways, wait till the playoffs start and Harden doesn’t get the same calls he’s been getting and the pressure starts mounting again. Looking juicy for a first round exit.
James Harden in Philly : 63.69 TS% Russel Westbrook : 49.9 TS% Very similar. These jokers just don’t realize how similar. Double standard.
James Harden is a good free throw shooter and he’s been getting to the line a ton. Yay! Doesn’t change the fact that he can’t buy a bucket when it matters. Dismiss FG% for TS all you want. FG% matters a lot.
You might be onto something there. That move really reminds any pickup b-baller of the fat guy at the gym who thinks he's still younger and skinny. We all know that guy (or ... have become that guy. )
This is just tribalism bs, he left our team, and now people want to trash and hate on him. It's really not hard a ruse to see through All these hot takes after a hand full of games, let's see a playoff series first.
It's amazing that this is even real, the comparison would be Embiid and Maxey, or comparing the Nets supporting cast (who are better imo) to the Sixers supporting cast. On top of that, my understanding has always been that Harden was worried that KD and Kyrie wouldn't be playing consistently, not that he didn't want to play with them. Lots of good reasons to criticize Harden, let's do better than this though.
You are the equal and opposite of hardenvolumeone. A clown who will say anything negative, while he is the clown who will say anything positive. You gave us all another prime example of the lengths you will go. “Quite Westbrick esque if I may say. The same jokers who always defend Harden unconditionally are trashing Westbrick and always downplay his triple doubles and accomplishments.” A child could easily explain with indisputable facts the reasons why Harden is still considered really good and Westbrook is really bad. And only a childish troll would try to equate the two players. Might as well be talking about magnets and gematria and illuminati. Just as ridiculous.
I think this is the first year where, watching Harden, his decline has been noticeable. I'll admit I haven't watched more than a few games of his this year, but he looks so slow and not able to get his shot off as easily. I still think he's a top 15-20 player, but he's trending downward from the perennial top five player he was. He needs to get on the CP3 vegan diet.
They are way more similar than you’ll ever want to admit. The FG %, the turnover leaders year by year, the decline in playoff numbers and struggles, both have 1 MVP, both are passive aggressive. You a funny guy Harden. Like you gonna do anything to Boogie.
