    I haven't watched him as much as you guys but it seems as though a big topic is him doing nothing or being nowhere even near the play when he's off the ball.

    I would like to see something unconventional, like when Wall has the ball, you sometimes use James as the pick and pop to the 3pt line guy. He won't be worn out because he will be picking little guys like Fox tomorrow. It also forces him to be engaged in the play.

    I want to see this particularly if you have EG and either one of Cousins/Wood, or both. Do guys stay with Wall and James gets open 3s. Do they stay with James and Wall has a wide open lane with 3 shooters at the 3pt line? Just something to think about.. Lol

    Yes.

    He sets picks for Gordon and he set picks for CP3 and Westbrook.

    Also he set a lot of picks for Jeff Green in the recent playoffs.

    If the truthful answer to that question is a resounding YES, then does it really make whoever said it an HOF??

    Not often. He did some off ball action in the last game though.

    Hey buddy, I didn't make this thread. I'm just here to enjoy the show. Relax your arms a little and put your Harden pom poms down for a bit.

    I mean OP has a completely unreasonable request. Harden can’t be bothered to move without the ball..

    I think if asked to by a coach with a spine he would. MDA was good (but as seen sans CP3 and with) the discipline is lacking. Bad habits form hopefully Silas will try

    I don't recall MJ or Kobe setting a lot of picks. Generally, the smart play is for your all-time-great scorers to have picks set FOR them.

    He's definitely big enough to set hard picks now. Probably like running into the Michelin tire guy.
