And also the calls on the fouls were too soft, one thing that trigger the player not to play hard defense.
Fouls are fouls. Soft fouls only matter when the games are last minute and if the score is crucial. Refs most likely don't call a foul in a soft foul if the game is about to end.
Yeah. Recently most points of James Harden came from FT shooting. For me his like not playing hard, he's just playing smart.
Getting foul most of the time is playing hard, you sacrifice your body to get a call, I think that's playing hard but he did it in a smart way.
James harden is also a good shooter outside, so we cannot underestimate his offense as both inside and outside he can shoot.
I won't be surprise if he will become the MVP this season again, of course PG is remarkable too.
