    15 ppg on 32% shooting in a sweep? Nah, I think Harden’s good on that

    People need to listen to Jimmy himself:
    Jimmy Butler in his own words of harden:
    "He’s one of those guys you game plan for. Like you go into the game saying, ‘We’re not gonna let James drop 40 on us.’ And he still drops 40 on you. That’s the mark of an unstoppable player."

    "
    he still seems to view the Houston star and former MVP as the league’s best.

    I think if you asked multiple people who the most unstoppable player in the league is right now, it would be a toss-up between a healthy KD and [LeBron] James.

    But if you ask me? It’s James Harden, for the win.

    Through 37 games of the 2019-20 season, Harden leads the league with an average of 37.7 points per game, which would be the highest total of any NBA player in 56 years and the most by a guard ever."

    Jimmy and the players voted harden multiple ttimes mvp. The respect is there to anyone who can see it, the espn/tmz are not serious analyst, just entertainment like a gossip show.

    homerism is real and for some reason harden didnt get much of it. some guy felt it was a laughable(backing it up with a box score) to think rockets would want thybulle, maxey over daniel house/nwaba.

    lol you would get blocked on Reddit or netsdaily posting a thread like this. A lot of rockets fans never deserved harden. A franchise fan base like the knicks or kings would know better. Hopefully if we do get cade Cunningham he will get a little more respect than we gave harden. I remember the harden vs klay and the harden vs Paul George threads. We spent so much time asking for something better than harden, that when harden become an all time great player in front of our eyes we didn’t even notice lol

    This is garbage... you can find threads representing minority opinions on anything. The fact is that most of Clutchfans spent their time defending Harden when the national media was terrible to him.

    believe it or not, their is a high chance harden was playing through the side effects of a concussion that he suffered in game 5. I believe he got elbowed or hit in the head by lamarcus aldrige

    Oh no, a single game! Superstars besides Harden definitely never have any of those, ever. :rolleyes:

    Let us know when Harden gets swept and/or has an entire series where he plays like ass. Thanks.

    Yeah and remember the game 7 that Harden dropped on LAC right after? 31/7/8 and closed out a stacked LAC roster. It’s a team game and Harden came through that series.

    Don't bother trying to interject logic into a fool's argument.
