    In the last 3 NBA seasons,

    James Harden FGA per game :

    17-18 season, 20.1 FGA, second in NBA, the leader has 21.1 FGA
    18-19 season, 24.5 FGA, 1st in NBA, the second player has 21 FGA
    19-20 season, 22.3 FGA, 3rd in NBA, the leader has 22.9 FGA

    "Volume scorers. dont improve team offenses."

    LMFAO.

    Prove em wrong for what? Everybody assumed it was gonna be high octane offense with Harden... Which would be smart for them to utilize... This bs Nash got him doing will result in humiliation and scrutiny in the playoffs...... You brought him there to blow mfers out....Not become the Spurs

    Harden should run the team. Any team.

    With all three guys on the court at the same time, it don’t matter who the other two guys are with them. All of them can handle the ball and get theirs whenever they want. How do you defend that?

    Harden needs to stay in attack mode...all that passing up shots to facilitate for role players or being way too unselfish when he’s on the floor with both KD and Kyrie makes BK far less dangerous

    BK was already incredibly hard to guard when Harden was barely taking 10 shots a game and deferring like he’s Rondo

    When he’s being ultra aggressive, it’s scary hours indeed.

    He was doubled and Kd and kyrie were bricking like scrubs. Kd finally hit a few shots they stopped doubling and harden went off. Would’ve had 20 assists if they had good shooting nights.

    Harden is taking what the defense is giving him also playing 4d chess. demoralizing the tired Heat defenders when they thought they had a chance

    That's what should happen on most possessions. Kyrie should spot-up and let Harden run the point. KD can play off the ball and shoot the 3pt and mid-range shots. Kyrie isn't going to agree to that, despite him being a very good 3pt shooter. Kyrie doesn't want to pass the ball when he's running the point. He'll either force a pass or he'll just force up a contested shot.

    The rotation should be better from Nash. He should have Harden next to one of the big guys at all times... next to KD if I'm being honest. Nash seems to put Harden next to the scrubs for half of the game.

    As the season progresses Harden will look for his shot more and more. If I’m Brooklyn I’m not worried about him at all and they aren’t. They need to be worried about landing McGee ASAP

    I hate how people are still saying "HE NEED TO BE THE SECOND OPTION BEHIND DURANT" no, Durant needs to be the second option. And I will continue to say that.

    Harden is the best player on Brooklyn.
