    Threes
    Layups
    MidRange
    PostUps
    Run constantly on offense
    Strong Post Defense
    Strong Switching Defense
    Strong Three Point Defense
    Score At least 35 per game\
    Dish at least 10 assists (Maybe assist to himself if the other players cannot hit the shots)
    10 Rebounds - At least 4 offensive and any he misses he has to run back and stop the break
    Get the other 4 players easy shots and force them to make them and scream and yell at them until they do . . . failing that he must conjole and take a pay cut to get them paid .
    Harden has to draw up plays during time outs
    He must inbound the ball and then receive the inbound pass
    He must recruit other players . .. . and design their contracts to fit under the cap

    Is there anything I missed?
    Should he run the concessions as well?

    Harden would have to be Jesus in basketball shoes to win a title with the Westbrook we saw in this year’s playoffs...performing a miracle like that still might have been above Jesus’ power level

    Handing out shrimp seems appropriate on a couple of levels.

    Midrange and run constantly on offense maybe gets Rockets into the finals.

    Simply moving without the ball would be a great start.

    The Love Gods might be pro Harden but the Basketball gods are not appeased.

    Edit: It's god darn early to talk about another season when the Playoffs have not ended yet.

    Where does he move?

    He already created a 4 on 3, no?

    Isn't 4 on 3 what offenses are designed to create?

    Once he moves. . . . how gives him the ball back?
    Unless he passes to himself

    He needs to be more likable like kawhi. Rockets fans are always pissed the media dont like them. Even rockets fans complain about him.

    Harden should imitate kawhi. Screw the org over, throw teammates under the bus, make outrageous demands for ownership and a private plane for his uncle. Demand load management for regular season. Be awkward in interviews so reddit nerds can feel like he’s one of them.

    The thing I love about basketball is that one player can make the difference more than any other sport (except maybe baseball where a lights-out pitcher on his game can dominate).

    So....you're right, in theory, @Rocket River

    He doesn't create 4 on 3s.

    1. He lets the defense dictate where he's doubled by walking right into them.

    2. Since he just stands there right after passing out, the defense can easily recover where they are playing 4 on 4 offense with Harden doing his Mcgrady in Toronto impression.

    Who knew that years later Clutchfans posters would praise that action as desrible.

    You can still move without the ball after a double team, steph curry does it.

    Again, there's the media/NBA twitter label.. that's unfair to Harden and bs=underrated

    Then there's the CF label. Which is that basically he does everything he should, at all times and his teammates just aren't good enough=overrated

    Stopped reading after that. Holy lord Dude... o_O:D

    He not only creates a 4 on 3, he flips perfect passes to wide open players all over the court. Absolutely sublime...
