I would almost rather Harden go all out on defense and have a sh-t offensive game. 41 pts and loss vs 0-21 from 3 and two gritty ass wins with lock down defense on Curry. I'M NOT MAKING AN EXCUSE FOR JIM! I absolutely think Rocket need him to be great offensively AND defensively, but I like that he isn't letting it affect his defense.
I would be fine with that honestly, even if it was 10ppg...the problem is his defense isn't there. I don't know what game some people here are watching. He had a couple of good plays, but overall he was missing assignments and curry was blowing by him. He was also standing way out on the side of the court during offensive posessions, needs to move off the ball. No point in getting angry about it now, he **** the bed hardcore. He shows up next game and it doesn't matter. It is frustrating though.
