I agree :)
I think in Melo's prime that could've been the case, since he was a gifted scorer after all.
Just to be clear, I meant Melo is not even efficient in scoring category (as evidence by TS%).
I don't think Melo makes up enough though. His advanced stats are pretty much atrocious across the board. That's why some people put Paul Pierce...
I agree with u that in some sense they are in a similar situation, but there is one big difference between Harden and Melo (to whom some people...
ignore the above post, wrong thread
fine. i was just refuting that Harden is a "hero" ISO ball (like Iverson) or ball hog type of a player, but I guess there was some mis-communication.
The original claim was that he's a "hero ISO player" which is completely different, because it implies he plays a hero ball. gosh, at least read...
I'm not talking about his style. I'm talking about his willingness to share the ball and play within the system.
Harden's Usage Rate in Houston 2012-2013 : 29% 2013-2014 : 27.8% 2014-2015 : 31.3% 2015-2016 : 32.6% I wonder what is the difference...
Did you even read what I wrote? Harden didn't play like this even during his first year in Houston. Just look at this usage rate back then....
Harden didn't always used to play 'hero iso ball'. When he was in OKC, he was an EXTREMELY efficient team player (66 TS% when he won the sixth man...
Jimmy Butler in the past 10 games : 14.6 PPG 4.1 REB 5.9 AST on 38% FG This guy is done. Too injury prone and unpolished on offense.
My point was he made the same dumb mistake during inbounds play two games in a row, esp in clutch time. He is supposed to be our defensive anchor....
You do realize anticipating and getting over the screen is part of the defensive acumen, do you not? Losing your man because you failed to...
Yes, I do think Bev Harden Ariza all sucks on defense. No one should be spared, including Howard.
I've never said anything to suggest Harden could've helped better in that situation. I'm saying your focusing way too much on Harden, when the...
Doesn't matter. Your critical focus should be primarily on Howard, since he was the one who lost his man and f up that situation to begin with....
I will repeat this again, because some of you are just not getting it. Losing your man should be the first line of criticism in any defensive...
