    Hakeem was plenty fond of catapulting opponents' shots into the stands.

    I'll refer you to this video. Whole thing's worth watching, but for this thread let's particularly enjoy the play I've linked to:

    Especially in his younger days he did love to play volleyball with those shots. He got smarter.

    This style, what Harden does, is manipulating the game somehow. Almost like cheating it somehow.

    And be the first click option on espn.com, and sportscenter would find some talking head for a hot take about how secretly underrated curry's defense actually is.
