    That's not speed that's quickness. Harden will lull you to sleep then use his first step. If you think Harden has top end to end speed like Russ, Lebron, or John Wall, you're kidding yourself.

    These are scrimmage games . I doubt anyone is leaving it all on the floor . For russ , who's biggest advantage is how athletic he can be and how hard he can play , these games might not show us much.

    Whatever level he wants to go at to get back to full shape by the playoffs is fine.

    The seeding games arent that big of a deal either IMO , but obviously you wanna look better as the games go on

    I did not appreciate how much the crowd contributes to watching sports.

    Here's Harden sprinting from behind half court to the other basket in the WCF against GS:

    I’m starting to think that talk about a 9 man rotation was complete BS.

    Edit: welp they put Carroll is in right as I posted

    I wouldnt be too worried about harden when we are playing him with PJ , Roco, Green, and Carroll

    We are just trying lineups out.

    Hes the only possible ball handler in that group lol
