    Haha I don't what came over me, but I remembered my math teacher back in high school tell stories about numbers like 53.. Sadly these facts about 53 are from the Internet but still as u say "kinda cool"

    53 is also Cuttino and Frachise's numbers combined.

    Didn't watch the video, but are you talking about the Shammgod? It's a really famous/well-known crossover move which Harden uses as much as anyone in the NBA (along with Kyrie)

    Tracy McGrady is better. Dwight Howard is better. Yao Ming at his best is probably better. But Harden has upside once he figures out how not to play ****ty defense.

    agreed but he is still young. he will improve. once he learns how to play team ball, play with heart like the Rockets during our championship years and defense, we will be champs

    Players do that,

    and "purist" fans gripe about the refs need to call more CARRYING and traveling. Trying to take inventiveness and flair OUT the game for something more watered-down and generic.

    Looks like Harden either has his own spin on it exposing the ball out a little more as bait, or he simply looses the handle a lot.

    Put a little more effort on the subtlety.

    You've been watching basketball for 25+ years, yet you still say nonsense like this?

    Sigh. Comparisons between positions are absolutely worthless. Worthless. The comparison HAS to be against the rest of the NBA for the position. And was t-mac-injured-all-the-time better than Harden? Time will tell. But I do not think so. Harden's game is not based on superb athleticism, it is based on skills. Do you know what skilz is?

    Yup. 53 but most of the time acting like a 12 year old when it comes to Lin. I just hope you can look at Lin with the same eyes you're using with other Rockets players. The same goes to all the Lin lovers.
