    Harden still looks like doo doo but.........idk, at least he looked good going to the rim in the first half. I dont know what adjustments teams start making in the second half to take away his driving lanes lol. Also his jumper is off....like way way off.

    Patty Mills was such a good signing

    the spacing and offensive juice the Nets will have with Kyrie and Joe Harris returning…sheesh

    people fail to remmeber how much harden carrying that anchor westbrick had on his legs in 2020. Harden was seeing every defense in history because teams did not respect russ as a shooter. Harden had dead legs by january that season

    If lebron was in his 20's i have no issue he could carry westbrick to a high seed, but this is not a young lebron anymore

    No matter what you think of Westbrook the same can be said of him regarding not being young anymore (this team would be better too if Westbrook was 27 years old). After watching a lot of this game i dont think it's possible for the Lakers to be good with these old players.

    Harden nut huggers, I wouldn't get too excited. This is the story of Harden's career. Showing up when it doesn't count.

    Harden's killer instinct is lacking. Kobe, MJ, etc be wanting to murder people so bad their ancestors feel it; they want to embarrass you with your family watching. Harden is all about the vibes. He needs KD. KD has that "f*ck you" in him.

    Nets probably win this game though.. right?

    I dont know man. I donno. All I know is that he flat out just looks bad at basketball right now. He's deferring to people way worse than what he had in Houston(with the exception being Mills). Its not just a "oh Harden choking again moment" its a "wow, he's just not good at basketball right now."

    Harden is lucky that LA put Westbrook back in. He has a chance still.

    Man We've seen this from Harden way too many times.. The classic "wtf are you doing stretch" in winning time. Harden forgets how to play basketball all of sudden and it's the most mystifying thing..

    Wasn't Stanley a Harden stopper?
