They like to double team Harden because it’s so easy to double team him. Harden even stand there waiting double team coming.
You are being a prisoner of the moment. Let me know when Jimmy Butler, gets doubled for a whole series. Let me know when Jimmy Butler can lead a team to two WCF.
Jimmy butler is the dog Morey was looking for in russ. But I feel like Russ uses in aggression the wrong way. If he uses his aggression the right way good things can happen like it did for jimmy
Lillard made it further. Also, he shot more efficiently and had less turnovers. It’s not all about stats anyways. Anybody with eyes could see Dame had a killer instinct in the playoffs and hit big time buckets including a series ending buzzer beater.
Well let me know when Jimmy Butler gets doubled for an entire series. They were so scared of Harden they didnt let him have coverage one on one. LOL. They didnt show Butler that at all. And if its because their teammates can handle a 4v3 well
Harden can do everything Butler is doing. Only difference is it wouldnt be close enough for the Laker's to have a 4th quarter performance.
The Finals are proving that you need consistent role players to really compete. If one goes down or doesn't play good, another steps up. The rockets didn't have that. they also didn't have a coach willing to try players on the end of the bench to mix it up and find a spark
The Warriors wouldn’t drastically change a Championship winning formula just so James Harden can start. It’s not easy to build a team around Harden and he wouldn’t just seamlessly fit into their starting lineup like KD did. He’s not starting over Steph or Klay. Warriors excel at movement without the ball. That’s like a foreign concept to James. 3 things I’ve never seen 1) A natural Asian redhead 2) a UFO 3) James Harden set a screen
Harden set a screen multiple times for jeff green in the okc series what are you talking about Also when harden was on the team usa fiba team in 2014. Harden was arguabaly the best player there, klay came of the bench and curry played the 2 guard. Harden would start on any team
Harden is so good in the regular season that it colors his postseason legacy, which is disappointing in comparison. He's averaged 28 points/7 assists per game on 58 TS% as a Rocket and his defense is better than ever now. It's not his fault that we haven't gotten to the finals but his leadership, body language, and effort aren't always there in the biggest games. Jimmy Butler is underrated. You can tell he would cut his own throat to win and he pushes and his teammates to be their best. When he said he would prefer to score 0 points in a win it's seems sincere.
lol this is so stupid. Reactions like this just because they have 1 good Playoff run in their career. He is not a better player by a long way. Butler's role players are helping them as well. Miami are pretty deep Harden doesn't lay down, people just don't notice he is actually fighting in the losses because they expect him to win.
