I fucking hate that guy. If the Warriors don’t choke against us, I’m rooting for them against the Rockets.

See my quote on the last game topic. That kind of s**t just didn't exist( okay, maybe a little) 20 years ago. I've always thought Harden was highly skilled but the pathetic flopping and the "euro step" just AREN'T basketball moves. It's more like, " Let's see what kind of half a** s**t we can get away with". Anyone think MJ wouldn't put up 50 every night?  ?? |

Still couldn't quite make out where he got hit( either chin or chest) but it certainly doesn't appear as if he was struck in the throat, where he was clutching, as if he'd been struck there.

It is weird the way the Utah players are defending Harden by standing behind him and not letting him take that step back three pointer. I have been watching basketball for decades and I have never seen a player being defended by standing behind him until now. Usually the goal is to stand between him and the basket.

No one has shot the step back at 40% and higher clip like Harden has....he has changed the game |

Yeah I realize he had a very bad shooting game so maybe they thought it worked. I can somewhat understand trying it throughout the game, but standing behind the guy on the biggest possessions of the game seems crazy to me. They are completely giving up the drive to the basket, you can't live off a gimmick defense for long |

I’ll just ignore the other 1000+ times he flopped and got away with blatant traveling. |

He never gets hit and everyone on this thread agrees. |

I saw this floating around and at first it looked like a phantom elbow. He exaggerated the contact, but he got hit. The first angle is deceptive and makes it look worse than it is. He does likely embellish it though with how he reacts afterwards coming out of the game. I wouldn't call Harden a flopper, but he's a major embellisher. Someone like Marcus Smart is a much bigger flopper where he will react to non existent contact and pretend he gets nailed.

Harden is crazy good and an unbelievable scorer BUT how can anyone enjoy watching the Rockets play? Htownfan I don't want to offend you but the way the Rockets play is so boring. It's just Free Throws and threes.
