    Yep, Hakeem in the triple threat was impossible to stop he just had way too many progressions. Same as harden in the iso. Best defense is to keep the ball out of his hands.

    What do Patrick Ewing, David Robinson, and Shaquille O'Neill have in common? The Hall of Fame? More specifically: they were all schooled like kindergarteners in the playoffs by a better center.

    Dream.

    What do all the wings in today's league have in common? They are all being schooled by Harden.

    Offensive GOAT.

    Because in the first game Rubio and Dante Exum were on Harden for the whole game. None of the highlight plays were against Crowder in the second game you mentioned either..

    Yep.

    Too soon? Jordan and Magic did it for decades. Harden's been doing it for six years. Even Kobe might rate better offensively for now, although as a basketball player I surely take Harden over Kobe. If Harden keeps this up another five years, he enters that discussion.

    You have a point regarding Jordan, but Magic? Come on. Dude has a career average of 19.5 ppg over 13 seasons, with 30% from three... That's hardly GOAT material. Harden is in his 10th season with a 24.3 pgg average with 36.3% from three. Magic doesn't deserve to be uttered in the same sentence as Harden as far as scoring is concerned. The only area where Magic might be marginally better offensively is his passing... But even then, we might be overrating him because of how flashy he was while doing it.

    I hear you. When I read "offensive GOAT", I think offense, which is more than scoring. Magic was amazing. I didn't remember that his career was only 13 seasons, though.

    Just talking about single season performances I think Harden's is the best ever. Nobody else has done 30 for 30.

    Beverly has too much bluster at times here is talking to Crowder how to stop Harden but he can't even stop Steph with a rolled ankle SMH

    No chit. Curry had 38 points, and Bev scored a grand total of 3. Yet, the bravado continues!

    Very well, in fact.

    Harden with only 29 points, well below his season average.

    To be fair Pat is marking KD and despite giving up like a foot on him he still did a decent job.

    Crowder was mad at the other long haired rasta man.
