    Where's the guy that wanted to trade Harden and build around EG?

    Harden is ELITE. Do you think he can turn it UP in the playoffs or will he continue to quit in the playoffs?

    There is no quit in Chris Paul. I believe if they both can stay healthy, it will preserve James' energy.
    James had to carry the team on his back through most of the season and playoffs.
    Things will be different this year. If James gets gassed, we still have another All Star PG to make plays/assists
    as well as a 6th Man of the Year. Not to mention Tucker and the Prince

    Again, it's okay to not win. It is NOT okay to quit. Are you okay with quitters?

    @swyyyguy mavsprick don't hide and run to your bf @Progs now...

    who said he quit aside from you haters and BSPN?

    did MDA, CP3, Les, Tilman say that?

    Did you enjoy watching Harden gives NO f*cks in game 6 and DEFERRING all the time? Did you enjoy watching him want NO part of the game?

    I would understand if Kawhi was locking him down and putting the clamps on him. However, Kawhi wasn't even playing! 39 year old MANURE GINOBILI was giving Harden that work. ARE YOU OKAY WITH THIS??? How does that make you feel???

    It made me sad. Very sad. :(

    life should be fun, its time for you to learn to enjoy in lowlights as well as in highlights of the life, dont you ever allow anybody or anything to make you feel other than joyful

    Phenomenal Regular Season game by Jim. Hopefully he has similar efficiency in the playoffs against the elite.

    Agree with everything you said.

    Now that he has done this twice, it's a good luxury to have a player that at any given night... he can be godlike.

    @swyyyguy ignore this nincompoop @vlaurelio

    He's literally delusional and just out of it. Harden could kill someone and he'd be defending him.

    Nothing wrong with what swygay said. Harden quit in gm 6. Fact. He can't do that again. That was shameful.

    True, very good regular season game from Harden. It would be SICK if he can do this in the playoffs. I hope so!
    Yeah, it's still shameful that Harden quit in game 6 but he's been playing well this year. Let's hope he can continue this elite regular season play into the playoffs!

    I’m with you. What he did that game is going to take a LONG time to forget. Shameful really is the right word.

    Helluva game by James Harden. Man I was pulling for him to break Calvin's record. Folks that's what you call putting on a clinic.

    Yup, unfortunately Harden is still human and while being very Elite he has also some flaws to his game.

    If nobody knew how to exploit them, Harden would have a field day right up to the title, but he does not.

    I am also grateful to Dan Toni for unlocking the PG potential in Harden.
