I like Beverly. He has a bad rep for one unlucky hustle play vs. one of the leagues biggest bitches.

Smith isn't hatable/lovable either way.

Harden is hot and cold for me. When I watch him play the right way I am infatuated with his game. Sunday was just embarassing for both of those 2. My biggest gripe with him is if you get physical, he takes it to a crazy level flopping. I don't blame him. It works. Others do it. It's just hard to watch and takes me out of the game. I feel that's fair.

Yup. Westbrook literally does the exact same thing. It was a fluke.

I'm glad you feel this way, but a tremendous number of people just want to watch this guy fail. It's amazing how he plays on a team that has a true alpha dog in Harden.

As someone who watched every game, I will concede that sometimes Harden complains too much. But what people don't realize is that he really is fouled the overwhelming majority of the time he is at the line. His quickness Euro step is just impossible to defend, so players fouls him, and he extends the ball out in the lane, and players can't help slap the shite out of him trying to grab the ball.

The fact is that if more NBA players could do what he does, they would.
