None of them had perennial colossal choke jobs like Harden did. He's had many tailormade squads put together so that he can thrive and lead them to a title but he failed over and over again while his peers rose and won rings. He has shrunk when his team has needed him the most over and over again throughout his career in the playoffs.
Let me stop you right there. Giannis was the favourite in both of the last playoff series he has had his ass handed to him. Embarrassed both times. Harden has... 'choked'.. can it actually be called choking when he was playing a better team? Was he ever favoured in a series he lost? You need a real reality check brother because the nonsense you just spouted - especially when you tried to argue Giannis hasn't had a colossal choke job - is embarrassing. You got to let the hate go before you make comments because that right there is what happens when you don't. If you want to say Harden choked in Game 6 against the Spurs go right ahead. Speak truths. I can't wrap my head around the level posters resort to just to try and mock Harden now. Giannis hasn't had a perennial colossal choke job. LMAO.
Curry losing a 3-1 lead and underperforming in game 7 in 2016 was far worse than all of Harden's chokejobs combined.
Yeah I get a kick out of Giannis fans criticizing Harden after the epic choke jobs Giannis has pulled in back to back playoffs. The guy literally wanted no part of the ball in the clutch moments lol.
Reverse the names and the exact same logic applies. At least Giannis is at a age where he can reverse that narrative.
If Harden is considered one of the best then his fans need to accept the heat that accompanies the glory. Facts is he hasn't won a ring and blown multiple playoff games. How you feel about him thats on you . Until he wins convincingly his shortcomings will continue to be highlighted. Its part of the package. He hasn't gotten the job done so he took the easy way out, that's how it stands. When the lights got brighter and competition got tougher, you can see him consistently shrinking. Look at his exit in Houston. He quit back to back games to the defending champs on home court instead of leading a charge against a team that eliminated him. It's extremely damning
Who on earth is going to defend kyrie durant and Harden? U would need 8 defensive players on the court at all times!
So what? He is still getting paid the 40 something million. Harden can still score at will and is now showing he can pass at will. Wish our owners would have gotten us a real big 3. Instead we get washed up players and have to over pay them to play for this team.
Also.... Durant didn't win anything until he went to golden state. Kyrie didn't win in boston or cleveland until Lebron and Love showed up. Soooo... He may be the man but obviously it takes more than 1 man to win it all. I'm a Rockets fan but none of those Rockets teams except the 2017-2018 team were were worth a damn compared to the three headed monster Brooklyn created. The 90's are over. Superteams win titles.
Harden was the Nets and the games best player tonight. And his defense was and always has been way better then Stephanie
Harden would have been doing that for us a lot more if he had decent shooters around him. I've noticed the media is making out Harden is a great passer because he's playing with the Nets. He's always been a great passer, just never had the right teammates to averaged 11 assists per game.
Exactly. it's been documented and etched in stone why did the rockets never have more excellent 3 point shooters. harden gave people millions of great looks.
I mean, every year he would be averaging over 11 assists a game. He just had to be more selfish otherwise we wouldn't have won as many games as we did.
