    Arenas is 100% right you caught him by the word too much. When he says tool he doesn't mean shooting stepback vs floater or oop to center... what he meant is this **** is defended 100% the same way. It's same scheme every time down the floor. It exhausts Harden and it makes him predictable for defender in late games/playoff situations because they get used to the **** he does for 40 minutes. What Gilbert meant is you have to give different looks just to keep the defense guessing whole game.... and last 5 minutes? you take your isolation. they won't get adjusted to his unorthodox style in 5 minutes a game. Give up 10 of you 38 points, 4 of your 10 assists to your teammates, let them feel the rock. And at the end of the game defense will be scared to leave everybody open just to build wall around Harden
