He is shooting 36.36363636% from the field so far.

His best shooting game was the 11 of 24 game he had in the game 2 win against the Jazz

His worst was that shite fest game 3 when he shot 3 of 20

His shooting percentage by game this post season:

Game 1: 42.3%
Game 2: 45.8%
Game 3: 15.0%
Game 4: 42.1%
Game 5: 38.5%
Game 6: 32.1%


He is averaging 5.3 turnovers a game

In the last 3 games, he has a total of 16 assists and 17 turnovers

In the last 4 games, he has made a total of 29 field goals but was lucky enough to make 38 free throws.


Harden is just not as good in the playoffs. He doesnt raise his game, he tends to wilt under the pressure.

Since he has been at "Clutch City", here is his regular season versus postseason shooting percentages

FG %:
Regular: 44.3%
Playoff: 40.7%


3P FG %:612
Regular: 36.4%
Playoff: 31.7%


Those playoff percentages are similar to Westbrooks playoff shooting percentages, (41.1%/30.2%)

Over Hardwn's last 40 playoff games, including that shite performance in the close out game of the 2015 WCF's, he has shot 40.1% from the field and 29.7% from 3


In the playoffs, James is more "The Brick" than "The Beard"


Dude just doesnt have that playoff gene

It’s amazing that boom has gotten so under some folks skin that we are posting entire threads dedicated to 6 playoff games.

Wow.

I went back 40 games and included those if it makes you feel any better.

FYI, the 6 game sample, as bad as it is, is better than the 40 game sample

That's a fancy way of deflecting from the hard truth.

until he can start consistently not playing well below his regular season playoff numbers, he'll just be a regular season kinda guy.


It's uncanny how often he plays subpar compared to lebron/KD/Steph in the playoffs.

No one cares about this except folks that like to stick it in Booms face.

It certainly doesn’t make me lose sleep at night that he plays worse in the playoffs.

I also don’t consider the best player in the league, even though he probably deserves the regular season MVP

Now

You're insinuating this is only a MSB narrative and not a national narrative, which is awfully incorrect.

At least you acknowledge it, that's all that really matters.

Shitting on players who underperform in the playoffs is a time honored tradition among sports fans, especially on message boards. It’s not specific to Harden at all

This is legit the way libs think in regards to the Mueller report lmao.

‘Nobody cares that the record exonerates Trump except Trump supporters’

‘Nobody cares that Harden sucks arse when it matters aside from Harden haters.’

Just keep pumping that false narrative though.

If the Warriors win this series, they we know what will be the latest built in excuse.

Maybe, if it actually exonerated him, but it didn't at all.
