You know I'm not gonna throw Harden to the bushes this quickly.
Houston's a toxic situation this season. Not saying Harden's necessarily helping, but that roster is a mess. They were all playing over their heads last year and now reality is setting in.
Feels like they're just asking too much of Harden and having to create everything on offense is finally taking a toll. Nobody on that team can create anything besides him. Dwight's a shell of his former self; Lawson's done; Ariza is shooting terribly; their entire offensive system is dogshyt.
Harden's always hovered around 44% shooting for his career and 36-37% from three. Minutes are up; usage rate is up; shots are up; turnovers up.
Still only 21 games though and they're still in the playoffs as it stands since the West is having a down year.
I need my boy Lillard to bring his shooting percentages up a bit, but I like what he's been doing this year. Hope they bring some quality talent in for him. Tough watching guys like Leonard and Vonleh in the starting lineup.
