Short of (avgs) 1 rebound, 1 assist and 7 steals from averaging quadruple double. I can definitely see some room for improvement.
Imagine what happens when Harden increases his FGA to say Lilliard or Luka levels. Or is NOT double teamed like everyone on this list. Watch out OKC, that Harden is coming for you.
Giannis getting penciled in thanks to golden boy status. He only played 4 games normal minutes. Went 2-2. Lost to Rockets & Mavs. Minutes vs 16 vs Nets 10 vs Wiz 0 vs Raptors 0 vs Grizz
People think it's a magic trick, that he hasn't actually earned those stats. Yet Giannis and Luka...? Those stats are PURE!
Hol up, Lillard did all that just to average 37 ppg? Harden averaged nearly the same amount while not even trying. He could’ve dropped 50 on the Lakers and shot more against the scrub Kings if he really wanted to.
Point for Dame, though: He's dragging an inferior team into the playoffs. Just the same, it's not Harden's fault that his GM is better than Portland's.
What kind of dumbass - in the year 2 thousand ****ing 20 + still claims Harden doesn't play defense, is it like the a weird mutant RNA virus spawned from a drop of Chris Broussards butt sweat and Don McLeans post Botox drippings *Checks poster* Lol, I see who it is. Hahahaha. Silence you cheap turducken. You're not contributing a thing.
