The series between Sixers and Heat exposes Harden's capability to carry a team on his back. He is no longer the player people know that shoots a lot and will score 30 to 40 points for his team to win. It seems like his explosiveness going to basket to fish for a foul and step-back three are long gone.
Harden is 33 and had the hamstring injury that really slowed him down. Yun sa nets kita mo na. You can really see what defense are throwning at him sa playoffs. Green is 1-10 today, thybulle 20 minutes tapos goose egg, so doesn't help. On the huddle sabi ni spo, " keep having that wall on harden"
I thought Sixers gave too much for harden. Simmons will have back sugery, so we don't know yet who won this trade. A true measure is kung naglaro si embiid.
I think everybody is expecting too much on harden. Harden's mistake is he is desperate for a championship now and throwing teams under the bus. That is bs, i hate him for that. Name me one player that won a championship without at least one all star sidekick. Maisip ko lang si hakeem when he won the 93 to 94 season championship, detroit of 2004, and maybe bill walton's portland team
Did lebron win those championships himself? Durant? Duncan? I mean these players are greater than harden, but just saying. When Bird had that back injury, he can no longer carry the celtics, same with magic after the bulls series. Look at Anthony Davis, puro injury right? He can't even do it too. Lebron average 30 this season, saan na lakers?
If anybody plays basketball, they know impossible ang 1 on 5, esp pag tumanda na and injuries.
