He defends one less attempt at the rim per game than Deandre Jordan.


I find that pretty surprising but it is what it is. He needs to get better in that area.

What are the actual numbers?

Second team all NBA defense, and will be first team all-NBA. Fifth in the MVP voting. PER is north of 30. He is only 22.

SOB needs to get his rim protection stats up. Until then, he's pretty ineffective.

I'm that guy, and I wasn't expecting Harden's name to appear in this thread. The love affair with everything Rockets is real though.

Well more like 1.5 more attempts

Jordan:

4.2/8.7 fgm/fga Per game = 48.5%

Davis:

3.5/7.1 fgm/fga Per game = 48.6%

Right. I was basically saying that even though the Rockets love affair is real, Rockets fans know Harden is not a defensive gem.

Ask OKC fans if he can shoot 3's.

That was the only one he made all year, in his career he's made 3. So that tells you right there if that was red arse or not. You're on your own with that opinion bro.


3-27 career

Your quibbles with his game are humorous.

Let me know when Harden blocks 3 shots per game.

Oh wait, that is retarded argument because he is a SG. If only you possessed similar cognitive function.

Not following you. Be more specific. What did I post that you're trying to discount based on position?

Remember when you tried to deny that the vast majority of your AD related posts are negative? Ahhhh, good times.

Your memory tends to get real fuzzy every time I'm proved right about something.

Funny how that works out.

Lebron sucks at defense. Always has. He gets a few highlight blocks and suddenly it's


Lol LBJ is one of the most versatile defenders in NBA history. If anything his defense isn't talked about enough. Especially his postseason D. Guy routinely shutdowns the opposing teams best player in 4th.
