lol, that tweet was some obvious BS Since when does a team have a ref that has already done 12 of their games before the ASB?
james harden has officially surpassed hakeem olajuwon in career vorp. Up next is shaq https://www.basketball-reference.com/leaders/vorp_career.html
Corporate/Commercial Directors vs feature film directors is like g league players vs NBA players. The gap is huge. Can definitely see the difference here.
Well the narrative that James Harden can only play one way has been proven false. The narrative never made sense to me because Harden played different with OKC already. People forget that Harden is already 33 years old and has played a LOT of minutes and games in the past. Hell, he has averaged 37 minutes a game over the last 11 seasons, that is the most in the NBA in that period of time. For the season he is shooting: 45/39/86 which is really good. He is going to the line over 6 times a game with only 14 field goal attempts and is getting nearly 22 points a game. He leads the league in assists per game and had over a 3:1 assist to turnover ratio. He is getting almost 1.5 steals and .5 blocks a game as well. His defense has really depended on whether he has been hurt or not this season. He has had some horrendous games, but most of the time has been average. He has been one of the 10 best playerrs in the league for certain this season.
James has turned in to an enhanced CP3 of the 2018 Rockets. Would love for him to get a ring and cement himself in history as a Houston Rocket great. 2nd best Rocket of all time!
PJ Tucker absolutely shut Jokic down in the second half of the Sixers V Nuggets game. It was vintage prime Tucker. Sadly he can’t do that consistently anymore because of west and tear and age but on certain nights and matchups he still can help you on defense. Offensively however he is a huge liability
I would say he doesnt even have to play another way. He's still doing what he's always done. He's just passing more and scoring less. Now he just has Embid so literally....no scheme works anymore LOL.
Tucker in the playoffs is the guy you need to stay in the game when shots aren't falling. One of my favorite Rockets of all time. Always loved the Chuck Wagon, Sura, Battier, Ariza, CP3 and PJ. Gritty as hell wins a lot of games.
Ironically, we drafted De'Anthony Melton and now he is playing with Harden at Philly and Morey is in charge. Harrell as well
Demar Derozan over James Harden for the ASG is wild his team wouldn’t even qualify for the play-in if it was held today the disrespect is absolutely real
I would have gone with Brunson over Derozan as well. I feel like the coaches just like Derozan's old school game. I don't think anyone was even thinking about him for the ASG.
Harden tops Derozan in just about every stat category. Demar has more PPG but he attempts more shots Missing games is his biggest flaw Harden-76ers record (when active) 23-11 Derozan-bulls record (when active) 22-25 Maybe they just want to spread the players around to represent more teams
Don't even stop at Derozan, tbh. Replace him, Holiday, Haliburton with Harden, and those teams instantly get better. Bulls and Pacers would be a top 6 playoff team, and the Bucks would be the best team in the East, easily. Can even make the argument that Harden would improve the Celtics over Brown. Embiid would not have that monstrous of a statline if not for Harden feeding him the ball, and Philly wouldn't be a top 3 team in the East if Maxey was their second best player. 3 out of the top 4 teams in the East have 2 players in the ASG. Philly is the odd team out. The disrespect is LOUD.
