He might be but u also have to realize the man took like 1/3 of the season off. He's a whole lot fresher than everyone else
Then Masai is obviously a better GM than Morey by a long shot because the team still won a ton of games without Leonard. We on the other hand play like a lottery team without Harden
What was their record without Harden this season, I have no idea. I would say probably about.500 which is lottery in the West
well considering how many games Chris Paul missed, it's not hard to draw the conclusion that we wouldn't make the playoffs if Harden rested as much as Leonard
Averaging the 2nd most points in the last 50 years after only Michael freakin Jordan’s highest season. While the second best player that is in his 14 th season is out for a large portion of the year. Fighting tooth and nail for the 2nd seed. Beating Utah and playing the Warriors. Kawhi’s heavy minutes in the playoffs is less or equates to Hardens amount of rest. Cool
Yup the same guy who wants to be in the end of games even when he doesn’t need to be. Who’s actually using this as some gimmick excuse. Oh people that can’t hold him accountable. Cool
I don’t hold him accountable for that. The blowouts we had this year were few and far between. It sucks. But I stand by Harden. He has done everything in his power to beat them I believe that.
Of course it's with the caveat that Kawhi is healthy however from what I can see if both are healthy Kawhi>Harden, sadly.
Nah biggest choker is Irving, at least Embiid powered his team to a couple of wins. Irving had like a 4 game stretch of horrible performances. TBH if Lebron never came back to Cleveland I think everybody would have put Irving on the same category if not lower than Kemba Walker.
Awesome shot, Kawhi's like MJ there with the tongue out and Joel looks almost scared to watch. That's tough man, looking at that other picture there's nothing more Embiid could've done, just a crazy clutch shot. I actually watched it on replay and could see there was only 4 minutes left of the last stream, but still I didn't expect that to go in and figured there was a part missing. Got chills from that shot, the pin drop silence before eruption was just amazing. Must be great to be a Raptors fan right now. And it's crazy how it's a reversal of the missed shot by VC in 2001 vs. the exact same team.
