    Harden has a 29.5 PER in these playoffs.

    That is second only to Ultra God Mode LeBron this year.

    For comparison' s sake, 1995 Hakeem put up 27.7.

    Short memories.

    It's sad.

    It's human nature to get a little nervous with the kind of history he has, but Chris Paul has never been one to shrink in big moments. Yes, his teams have come up short, but it's never been about him underperforming.

    26.3 PPG on .509 / .350 / .941
    4.7 RPG
    10.3 APG w/ 2.7 TOs
    2.0 SPG

    That's what he averaged in the 3 games LAC lost after being up 3-1 on the Rockets in 2015.

    Did he change his name to Demar DeRozen?

    The series will end in 5 games so the question is invalid because Paul won't be nervous about games that won't even exist.

    Didn’t look that way in game 4. He was better than I thought he’d be. If he can play like that in game 5, I have no doubt he will see the conference finals.

    I'm not even triggered. I respect Carl's idiotic threads. Positive vibes only!

    Harden can't have another game when he gets frustrated and reverts to Turnover Harden, throwing sloppy passes. We saw Turnover Harden last game; we should have blown out the Jazz. (To be fair, we saw Turnover CP3 in Game 1 of each playoff series.) Keep the turnovers down and we'll be good.

    LOL, that's a decisive no.

    God what an addition he's been.

    Hmm...we're in the conference finals. I guess you're done celebrating to post this.

    I love how if Harden has a bad game - in a win - you're vindicated. If he has a good game in loss (see game 1 and 2 of the 2015 WCFs) you're as blind as a naked mole rat.

    Enjoy your celebration. I will enjoy mine.

    Dude I’m a harden fan. I’m celebrating the conference finals. All I said is that Harden has a tendency to ghost at times, and I’m glad we have another star to step up when that happens.

    Sea Pea Three finally got the monkey wrench off his back. The curse was a blessing in the skies.
