quick where did harden rank among pgs in defensive win shares and you idiot you said harden guards scrubs, well what the hell does curry do. Thank god les is not a colorist harden will retire a rockets continue to improve. who knows might even go for 50/40/90 next year.. dude just keeps getting better. he would get his credit if he were white( no question about it)
what harden did this year has never been done before in the history of league, oscar averaged a triple double and his bigs didnt box out and let him get rebounds. and oscar didnt win mvp that year the league just hates harden, but he'll keep busting the devin bookers, klay thompson gordon haywards, and derozans on their ass and take names. When its all said and done people will look back and see that statlines harden put up and ask how on earth is the highest award this guy won a 6th man of the year award
LOL. STOP IT. He's good, but he will never get close to 50/40/90 with that high of a usage. The closest he got was his last year in OKC, and that was as a 6th man taking only 10 shot attempts per game.
What does any of that have to do with my post Oh btw I had to mention 50/40/90 will never happen for harden
NEVER! Olajuwon said he was injured - mgmt said he wasn't... I trusted Olajuwon to know his body better than guys profiting off him... and with the heart and determination that he showed - even on subpar teams - i never doubted his devotion.
Harden unlike shemac, and brokelin plays through injuries. Harden has missed maybe 2 o3 games his entire rockets career and he had to fight with morey to sit out, thats a guy who wants to earn his money, unlike dwight, mcgrady, and lin
Can't do it when he shoots over 9 threes a game at 34%. Too many bad threes, too many games where he hits an early 3 and decides he's going to be Steph that night.
Is it because of his performance? I've never seen Chris Paul lay down & go to sleep during a elimination game
I wouldn't say never. I wouldn't put a cap on his efficiency. Harden had improved every year and typically has one area that makes a jump. Really the only thing left is efficiency, which is already elite. He needs to bring his 3pt% higher and really if he could be at 38-39% from distance(although 40% would be ideal) he would go down as being one of the most complete offensive players ever. I don't expect 50/40/90 but I predict 48/38/88 next year
You kind of put a lot of words into my mouth and probably should reread what I quoted and responded to.
