As a good player then we can expect versatility no matter what position he would shoot up the ball either outside or inside it doesnt matter and i do completely
agree with soft fouls which arent called on crucial times.
For MVP candidate i do consider Harden would be on the list.
The organization knows what to do, calls are not consistent in the NBA, that's why we see sometimes that players protesting, of course
they are not perfect or maybe some games are rigged. Harden is good in regular season but have you noticed how he played during the playoffs, he mostly struggle and if not because of Chris Paul in the last off season, they would not reach the West Finals.
Yes, i have noticed it too when it comes of his performance on regular season which you can really say that it is outstanding and i agree about that struggle on playoffs. He do get some
star sparks on regular but when it comes to playoffs those are fading down.
And if he will continue to do that, he will never win a championship in his NBA career.
Harden has made his style bring success to him but his defense is needed during the playoffs, if this guy will be doubled
every time he holds the ball, I don't think he can continue with his high scoring performance.
In playoffs teams adjust every game, and the secret why the warriors are dominating the NBA is because
they have scorers in the floor and if they can stopped harden, it would be an easy job for them to win against the Rockets.
I guess we will see them again in the west finals this season, no good team in the west so far that could beat the Rockets except the warriors.
