    And who exactly is copying that? Don't forget that refs started calling some of them offensive fouls when they realized Harden was initiating the contact and grabbing his opponents.

    other teams didn’t even try to trade for him, and either Tilman refused to trade with Philly, or we simply liked BK’s package more

    harden is the one causing the league office to change and revise rules every other offseason similar to Elgin Baylor lol. Curry hasn’t caused any rule changes.

    great point

    kevin porter jr the youngest player in nba history to have a 50/11 game idolizes harden. Like I said before harden is more copied and idolized by young amateur basketball players than curry

    harden after the 2017 season caused Adam silver to change the definition of a 3 shot foul, also after 2018 the league altered the continuation rule

    Didn't Kobe get technicals for some of his "unnatural shooting motions" years ago?

    kobe got a technicals for hitting people like ginobili and mike miller in the face after his follow through release. Nothing like what harden is doing

    harden has changed the game

    If the MRI showed not even a grade 1 strain then that is the BEST news they could possibly hope for. Grade 1 strain usually takes days to recover from.

    An MRI that shows no pull muscle or strain would mean Harden could possibly be back by game 4 if not sooner. ( according to the internet since I'm not a doctor nor have I stayed at a holiday inn.) https://www.valenciasportsmedicine.com/blog/2018/may/hamstring-injury-recovery-time-exercises/

    Depending on how the next few games go. If the Nets go up 2-0, Harden can wait till G5. If they go 1-2, Harden would have to be back for G4.

    Bucks have a reputation as playoff chokers and their coach is clown shoes.

    There's a possibility it might not go to game 5.

    lol i wish but highly unlikely. the bucks will not shoot as poorly as they did all series. they will have at least couple games where they are raining threes....doesn't mean they will win them but no way this is a sweep without james harden. the bucks should be able to win this series honestly.

    Game 2 is about as Must Win for the Bucks as it gets. If they lose 2 in a row without Harden...well that's all they need to know about whether or not they can compete with the Nets.
