looked like he worked towards fixing the "issues" this year but that opportunity of a fair shot was taken away from him by things out of his control. he was being harden all the way until the shitshow began to unfold in the 3rd quarter. thats how you slow him down bc GS sure as hell couldn't do it themselves.
So it’s James’ fault that Ariza and Green and Gordon and Tucker couldn’t buy a bucket last night? Much easier to play defense on someone when you know nobody else is going to hurt you. James didn’t lose us this series. The injury to Paul lost us this series. Stop saying moronic things and actually learn some basketball. Blog Boy.
Big F U to you OP. I remember the years before we had Harden. I remember T-mac/ Yao disappointments. I remember Steve and Cutino years. Harden years have been the best in the last 20 years. Learn to appreciate what we have.
Yall really think prime Tmac wouldnt have 40ppg triple double with isolation called on every possesion and Mike on the sidelines? Harden is good but he isnt superstar-talent wise. Honestly only Durant can hang with Lebrons Kobes and Tmacs of the world. Skills x physicality. Harden doesnt look like he can score at will.. if his 2 moves dont work he cant play at all. But it applies to almost all modern superstars
The more i think about it... imagine Kobe with Curry as a defender in isolations the whole game. He would get him pregnant. CP is a true superstar on that team. Harden is hof 1B but he cant be primary ball handler through the whole game
I'm not sure TMac, Lebron, or Jordan can do much with Nick Young and Klay Thompson shouldering them to mid-court, being chopped and undercut on their 3s, and being met by Draymond with only one hand up at the basket on every drive----- with no calls. The refs clearly took Harden out of the games, and Rockets fans are the FIRST people that should be carrying the torch to the NBA refs.... but instead they go after their own players. Why? It doesn't matter how good you are if the ball gets chopped out of your hands on every play.
Trash... Remind me, who was the hot hand in game 7 that should've been running the offense and taking more shots?
I have seen Tmac struggle against a midget like Derek Fisher and then Matt Harpring in isolation plays after isolation plays during the Jazz series. Settle down Tiger.
you mean Kobe when he did not have Gasol or Shaq? how far did he take the lakers? LOL Cp3's body can't be the primary ball handler on this team
