you dont get patty cake calls in the playoffs. That gimmick wont work now. There is a reason he didnt win mvp, and thats because diving into people to draw a foul instead of actually trying to make the basket isnt a skill. If hardent cant shoot freethrows, he dont know what to do. Clips win this series 5-6 games with ease.

It's not about "patty cake calls". A lot of Harden's points usually come from beating his man off the dribble and getting lay-ups. If he doesn't get the lay-up, he gets fouled because the defenders are not in good defensive position.
But against the Clippers, he has trouble taking it to the rim because their bigs are so long and athletic. He doesn't get as many lay-ups, and he doesn't get fouled as much because even if they aren't in great defensive position, they are athletic enough to make a play without fouling.
That's why he got to the line less last night than in the Dallas series. It's not because of the refs not blowing the whistle in the playoffs.
