That's not because he makes most his shots or takes good shots. It's baca use he gets so many of his points from the foul line. And a lot of those Fouls aren't called in the playoffs.
And as for your second part about the playoffs, Harden has taken MORE free throws in the playoffs than he has in the regular season, or at least similar numbers.
2015 reg. season: 10.2 playoffs: 10.5
2014 reg. season: 9.1 playoffs: 8.3
2013 reg. season: 10.2 playoffs: 11.0
The idea that he doesn't get to the line in the playoffs is a myth.

You aren't a very informed fan hate to break it to ya. repeating stuff that has been proven false like the fts n the playoffs n stuff shows that you just take what you hear from someone else and don't research it yourself. not a good sign.. You do seem like a good guy though
Because refs started to wise up to a lot of the ways that he used to get fouls.

The good thing is that this time next week the rockets will be 0-3 and you will conveniently not be on this board. And you're a pussy for not taking that bet.

He bet me $50 straight up that HOu would beat SAS or OKC if they met in the playoffs just a couple of weeks ago.

And he's been praised by people on this site for actually paying up on bets. Boom does follow through on bets.
Aggie Fishfinder is wrong again.

Ah, well then he must be losing a lot of money to keep betting on the rockets.
Hell, if Jordan didn't decide to play baseball, the rockets would most likely be sitting on 0 titles and would still be known as "choke city".

But I'll bite. Jordan played in 1995 (the year the Rockets won their 2nd title) and the Bulls lost to the Magic in the playoffs. Rockets swept the Magic in the Finals.
Jordan averaged 31.5 points in those playoffs with 4.5 assists and 6.5 rebounds on .484 shooting.
In 1996, for comparison sake, he averaged 30.7 points, 4.1 assists and 4.9 rebounds on .459 shooting.
Jordan was Jordan in 1995, and they lost to the Magic.
Thanks for playing.

That's my bad. I didn't know my mid-90's history like I thought I did. I should have known better trying to argue that time period with a rockets fan.

When is game 1?
How did the mini JJ's do last night? I never saw a score.

I'm cautiously optimistic. But I give us about a 40% chance of beating the warriors in the WCFs. OKC could cause trouble, but like most years they can't match the depth of the spurs. Think that series goes 6 like last series.

You know good and well that MJ only played a quarter of that season. He didn't round back into MJ-form until the next (record breaking) season.

But the Bulls were not the same Bulls as they did not have Jordan the whole year and he came back after ASB, so new rotation and new chemistry had to be done. Not saying the Bulls win but they may have not played the Magic in the Finals.

I never caught a score either actually. Got distracted.

Thank you sir.

Sunday Night at 7.
Kerr was pissed because Sunday night is the primetime slot. Only reason the warriors were placed in the saturday slot is because the cavs arena was booked for Saturday night. And so they had to take the sunday spot and they don't like having both #1 seeds playing on the same day.

I'm at about 25-30 percent chance, myself. Just don't see it happening unless we get to 2014 Finals level basketball and gsw regresses to the means little bit.
But if anyone stands a chance of knocking 'em off, it's a Pop-coached Spurs team.
