Harden's been fouled on 124 3s this season Steph Curry fouled only on 18 3pt attempts

Do you watch games or skim through them?

Huge difference in his performance in games where they reward his flopping and when they don't

When he's flopping early defenses are scared to guard him, then he gets in a rhythm

When it doesn't work, you see lots of performances like game 2 vs Spurs

He would still be elite, but i doubt if he would be top 10

He's a terrible defender and his offense would fall off a bit (at the very least)

It's corny and wack but I can't blame Harden for doing it if the refs reward him every time.

As Clay Davis said on The Wire "shiiiiiiiiit, I'll take anybody's money if they're just giving it away."

But you said we should decline rape trades

I watch he's not a terrible defender h holds his own 1v1 I admit he gets lost following guards through screens and plays but dude is great offensively his first step is what gets him those fouls it's quick and it puts defenders behind him where he can flop I admit he flops but if he plays straight through his moves he would still score and be a top 10 player he knows he can get away with it

Dude can shoot and is great creating off the dribble you can't disput that

He'd still be elite no doubt...I think u assumed I'm talking like he won't be a star anymore

I'm just not sure if he'd be top 10 overall player anymore

And nah breh, he is a HORRIBLE one in one defender lol

It's that screen play. The defender tries to go over and James chucks up a 3. He does it the most but Lou and IT do it too. I just really noticed IT doing it during the playoffs though.
