    Yeahhh so Harden's offense has now boiled down to forcing contested ISO 3's... little variation if any

    CP3 looks like he wants it.

    Harden forgot the shot clock resets to 14 after an offensive rebound. CP3 was yelling at him to hurry up, lol.

    I think being one game away and Paul getting injured took it out of them. Im gonna be honest Im a fan but it doesnt take a lot to take it out of Harden. He's got his MVP I think he is resigned to the fact he may never get a title.

    Harden doesn't look like Harden. I thought this freedom of movement rule would make him unstoppable. I know he has 12 points, but they aren't coming easily like they did most of last season. It all looks so hard and ugly.

    Harden can't move laterally anymore because he's fat?

    Has to attack more. And finish rather than constantly kicking it out.

    It would if they called it evenly. Its amazing that Brandon Ingram gets that call but players like Harden, Paul and Gordon (all who have done a lot more than him) cannot.

    Oh ok. Doesn't matter who started it tho, it has clearly affected Clint's game. Get Carlos Boozer out here ASAP with some hair dye

    i don't know whether it's harden or d'antonio. but harden not having a reliable post game at 29 years old is wild to me.

    Goes back to the lack of hunger. He's no longer playing for a check. That's why he's a role player.
