I just couldn’t understand the severe lack of aggression, especially with no Kyrie How are u only averaging 14 shots a game like u aren’t 1 of the most devastating scorers the league has ever seen? Dude out here tryna be Kyle Lowry for what?
Dude what is going on with him man. Why does he look so good one minute and then so bad another. Its like he wastes all his good energy in one quarter.
Also, they have literally the worst spacing around him. Sheesh, Aldridge, Carter,Johnson, and just Mills. I dont know what you can do there.
do you think he likes playing in front of a packed NYC arena or the half-filled lower bowl of Toyota Center?
Even now man, I see Harden and I'm like..."its still not good enough." Dude looks sluggish like all the time. This doesnt even look like decline to me, it looks like he's just flat out not in good shape, idk man....I donno. I know he's having a good game, but the eye test is definitely not there.
There aren't too many perimeter players better than Harden at taking advantage of a mismatch. Switching Robinson, Randall and Fournier onto him 1v1 is basically serving bbq chicken or lemon pepper wings to him.
