14:13 points to turnovers ratio.

Is that bad?

I get it, you're butthurt your team lost. I know the feeling (1/9/12), but no reason to make excuses for your star's worst performance in playoff history... Have other stars such as Lebron, Kobe, durant had bad games before? Yes. Have any of them had statistically (and obvious to anyone who watched) had worse games then Harden tonight? No!

Just be happy they made it this far and not collusion all. You can say "oh we had injury and fatigue issues" or something along those lines.

It's funny a guy can have his best game of his career and worst in back to back games.

Bad game for sure, but he'll be back next season.
Great season Rockets. Now the haters can get off the dick for a few months.

UGhhhhh

James went 2-for-18, scoring 12 points and clanking six ill-advised and well-contested triples. He also had a whopping 10 turnovers.

He also came up short in the clutch. He had the clearest path to the basket all night in the final minutes to tie the game and missed a finger-roll that he makes in his sleep, along with two other drives and, surprise, a three-pointer.

This has got to be one of the absolute worst playoff games ever by a star player, maybe the worst. It's hard to find anything comparable to this, but here's some other bad performances:

John Starks Game 7, 1994 Finals: 2/18 FG, 8 points, 2 assists

Reggie Miller Game 1, 2000 Finals: 1/16 FG, 7 points

Ray Allen Game 3, 2010 Finals: 0/13 FG, 2 points

I see 9 assist 1 steal, and 9 rebounds as well, so at least he was doing a bit of everything else vs Harden with 6 rebounds, 5 assist, and 3 steals.... I bet James played better defense that game than Harden did?

Does that count as a double double?

You left out the part that he still almost had a triple double...

Harden had 3 sTeals. Considering steals are worth approx 4 times as much as a rebound or assist it's pretty even on Reb/arse/stls.

I'm not saying you were wrong about that. I just think it's funny you think Harden getting a steal followed by a likely turnover or clanking a 3 off the rim is worth something.

Oh 2-18 isn't clanking them off the rim as much as 2-11?

I'm so confused on how turnovers are worth 5.4 points per game when the more you have, the worse it is.
