James Harden without the refs is looking like Rick Brunson.

yall tried to compare triple threat rip throughs, and flailing while driving

to trae young pushing the pace and then stopping in front of centers in transition

one aint a basketball play at all ... rip through means you're reaching... that's on you at that point

Trey stopping and you running into him is a foul tho. If he's jumping backwards towards you that isn't.

 

[Rekkapryde]

Good. Those 2 would need 8 years of no foul calls to make up for all the cheap foul calls and scamming they have been doing over the years (especially in Harden's case)

fukk them

They'll start callin em again after a few weeks.

They did the SAME shyt when they supposedly outlawed the leg kick players used to draw fouls on jump shots years ago back then

I'm loving it. They're letting them play, and giving defenders a little more leeway to be more physical. I was so sick of that AAU defense.

 

[Voice of Reason]

Durant 38 points
17/24 shooting

and they still lose by double figures at home

I was watching the game...Harden is still able to get to the rim. He needs to drop a few lb's probably. But it seems he wants those easy point at the foul line. It's not going to happen.

I never thought he was a great scorer without the foul calls. There were so many nights i’d see him drop 30 points but only make 5 field goal attempts at 30% shooting.

Welcome to the 90s


Yall guards better learn some post moves and drop steps, or keep yall asses 25 ft away, hoisting up prayers

Getting exposed something fierce.

You're damn right he's the poster boy for this shyt. He was abusing the rules his whole career.

He doesnt go to the rim to score tho.. hes looking to get a call, huge difference. Gimmicky player. When the last time you seen Harden do a 1 or 2 dribble pull up? His bag is gimmicky. You cant watch him and KD play and think they are on the same level offensively.

"Harden has led the NBA in free throw attempts six times since 2013."



The man is a fraud!

 

[Dwight Howard]

He debunked this his last season in Houston. He made it a point to have multiple 30+ performances with few fta's

Coli thread topic playing out in real life.

Hehehehe

League deliberately made perimeter player friendly rules and publicly acknowledged it. Now dialing it back.

Several comments made the past few years here might not age so well.

…… real shyt tho…. Harden needs to get in shape
