    It’s very clear there is a directive from the league office or a point of emphasis to not allow Harden to draw fouls. This is almost completely narrative and completely discounts that Harden has a special talent to draw contact and get players out of position. Add in that in the playoffs foul calls fall off a cliff I think it’s better for his game and our offense for him to get ready for this new reality.

    Refs calling him right? Smh, that dude needs to shut his dumbass up. That wasn’t Harden trying to draw a foul, or are we gonna act like Hill isn’t sliding underneath him...

    that’s Harden trying to save his ankles

    What were you watching? His fouls were off charges that were him attacking. He wasn’t trying to draw anything. Only one was legit

    You are a ****ing idiot. I didn’t say Harden got fouls because he is trying to draw them. I said the league is looking for reasons to call fouls on Harden.

    Russ was awesome. He's underrated. We're sorry we talked crap about you, Brodie. You're da real MVP, not Harden.

    Harden just trying to get foul and NBA ain't calling fouls to payback Morey. It's going to be a long season if Harden tries to draw fouls because Chinese leader sent memo to NBA to screw the Rockets and Morey

    It’s okay it might take some games for Harden to adjust to the refs not calling anything and calling bs offensive fouls. But he is more dangerous when he doesn’t try to draw fouls. Every season they add a new Harden rule, he goes on a tear when he gets the handle of how the refs are gonna called him.

    Harden was playing his game.

    If the refs dont want to give him the same call they give Giannis fine.

    But don't call an offensive foul and wave off a made basket.

    It's too obvious

    Da fuc are you even talking about? You are completely missing the point. The point is the league office is looking for reason to give Harden offensive Fouls.

    It’s obvious what I’m talking about, no need to be getting all emotional. That clip is not Harden trying to draw a foul. Harden being called for nonexistent push offs isn’t him trying to draw a foul either...
