re: Has there ever been an NBA player teetering on greatness/irrelevancy as much as Hardwn?

Game 1 of the lakers Series was the most important game of his career at the time. Best player on the court.

Same with game 2. Again, best player

Game 3 same story.

It is the zach lowes of the world who come back and say oh this game mattered most and not the others. Laughable. Every game mattered most at the time. And for the series he was the best player.

Only time Harden ever made the finals he wasn’t even a Robin, he was an Alfred. But “muh teammates”

Chris Bosh is on record saying their game plan was to take the ball out of his hands bc they knew KD and Russ couldn’t beat them. They were right. Great coaching by Spo.

Also battier said he was their most efficient player so yea keep with your fan fiction that he was the Alfred.

“fan fiction that he was the Alfred. “


Maybe one of the most ironic and lacking of self awareness statements I’ve ever seen.

Lol yea he was the most efficient in that series

Durant - 30.6ppg, 54.8%FG, 39.4%3pt, 83.9%FT

Westbrook- 27ppg, 43.3%FG, 13.6%3s, 82.4%FT

Harden- 12.4ppg, 37.5%FG, 31.8%3s, 79.2%FTs


You’re not only wrong you’re the complete opposite of factual. As usual he’s the player who doesn’t show up at all.

Before the series battier said he was the most Efficient player on the team. That’s why he was the focus.

Wrong. But that’s in the past. How about this series???? They must get Embid back if they have any chance of winning.

so a team needs one of its best two players to win a series? when exactly has guys like lebron or Durant won a tough playoff series when their best teammate was out? Never.

if Paul would have beaten him even once with more help tou could maybe go with Paul. But he blew a 3-1 lead one time

Remember when James Harden quit and the team won that series without him?

Lmao, and you believe that proves your point. Mental gymnastics doesn’t erase those stubborn facts.

Triple double in game 5 down 3-1, win
35 in game 7, win. Series over.

CP blew a 20 point lead to a bunch of backups in a home close out game.

funny how it is spun that a series win is a knock on him and not CP isn’t it. Especially considering the comeback came during his normal rest at the end of the quarter.

Are we staying in the present? Harden, by most accounts, has lost a step. Without Batman, the sixers stand little chance.

Let’s not use double standards. Imagine Giannis or any A player putting up 12ppg and shooting under 40% in a series then saying “no he was the best player, they just focused on him so him putting up putrid numbers doesn’t matter. It was his 2 teammates who combined for over 57ppg that cost em”

Do you have any self awareness at all when it comes to this player?

And? I don’t see people making excuses saying he was great in those instances. Has he ever even had a series that anemic?
