    That crossover on Jimmy was some fancy footwork .

    Hopefully losing the 5 lbs makes harden even quicker off his feet

    I initially read that as "fappings."

    I really like James Harden

    they are trying way too hard to science a slow motion clip. Actually, they just said a bunch of dumb **** for a caption to a slow motion video clip. if they weren't lazy, at least edit the ****ing video w/ voice over or stupid text and arrows or some ****. stupid

    Been watching him play like this since he was traded here. It's just not that big of a deal because he does this to everyone.

    They didn't even explain it correctly. The GM (gluteus maximus) along with the OP of the RF (over pronation of the right foot) from JH (james harden) created such a HIRE (high impact ripple effect) causing CE (court erosion) led to the easy lay up.

    What you also need to notice is the uptick of energy in the left posterior deltoid and the trapezius created by the mitochondria (obviously because it's the powerhouse of a cell)...

    I think what they're saying is: he feints left, re-planting his left foot. It deceives the defender that he is going left, but in fact it is more optimal placement to launch a drive to the right. Right?

    Acceleration.

    Warp speed.

    Ground Reaction Force.

    Average air speed velocity.

    Time travel.

    It's all there in that move.

    I think your initial reading was correct.

    There's so much stuff on Harden on that BBiomechanics account, I think BB's getting ready to publish his dissertation on James -- ultimately resulting in a Nobel Prize in Physics for Harden to go along with his 2019 MVP.

    Yeah yeah. We all know Hardens delayed acceleration is a counter to Tillman's cheapass "optimization" of relaxed contracts. The map is unnecessary.
