If Harden didn't run a pick and roll, we'd force the defense to switch until we had a mismatch in his favor. Then he'd go one on one. How...
In the past, the 3 pointer used to be considered a bad shot. Now, you can't win without it. The game changes. It's up to you whether or not you...
Has there ever been a player whose gravity and off-ball movement disrupts defenses as much as Curry does? You're also forgetting that he's the...
Because our Harden-centric offense wasn't designed to generate 4v3 opportunities in space. Harden would run the pick and roll and move towards...
So if Harden is a 10 on-ball and a 0 off-ball, and Curry is a 7-8 on-ball and a 10 off-ball, why wouldn't Curry be considered a better overall...
If that's not the case, can you explain why defenses constantly blow switches in this manner with regards to Curry?
That's because this is a Rockets site, and Harden fans try to marginalize Curry whenever possible. Not off-ball. Not even remotely close.
Good point, I thought the bulk of his missed games came after the all star game in 2019. I stand corrected. But his advanced numbers in 2019...
Why is it a ridiculous argument? The defense blew a switch which resulted in Curry being doubled off-ball, and GSW capitalized on it. If this...
Numbers without context are meaningless. What you're looking for is impact. CP3's OKC team was expected to be a lottery team, and he turned them...
Chris Paul wasn't an all-star in Houston, but he was an all-star in OKC and Phoenix. Clint Capela? Montrezl Harrell? Lou Williams?
Harden's on-ball playmaking is better than Curry's, but let's not go overboard here. What's more important is the degree that Harden's on-ball...
Curry causes the defensive breakdown yet you think Green is the primary playmaker in that play? Terrible logic.
The defense overreacted to him b/c of the threat of his 3pt shooting. It happens constantly. I consider your perspective to be short-sighted....
It was a defensive mistake, but Curry forces these defensive mistakes quite often. I consider this to be a form of playmaking.
Harden had no steals in the first quarter, and he had 1 steal in the second quarter which he followed up with a turnover. Again, it was a team...
They struggled for the first few minutes of the first quarter. After that, it was smooth sailing. Harden was part of the turnaround; he wasn't...
Defenders don't purposefully leave their mark to double Curry, but through his off-ball movement, Curry forces the defense to make mistakes which...
How did you want me to respond to your Draymond comment? By pointing out that teammates are always integral to successful playmaking?
This doesn't have Klay, but it has Durant:...
