    Dirtiest POS in the league (worse than Dort and Brooks)... and he gets away with 99% of his BS.
    I have no clue why does he get all this special treatment.

    Refs are afraid of him. He recently called a ref racist. He is a hustler.

    I tried a couple AI searches on exactly this yesterday and it seemed AI hasn't caught up. Maybe incorrect phrasing .... someone else give it a try for ****s and giggles?

    It's part of why I took offense early this year at the foul merchant stuff. When he attacks, in the wide variety of ways he does to get to the rim and to get shots off, it's with the "intent" to put the ball in the basket. And is a huge problem for defenders to stop without fouling. None of Harden's prime years crap.

    AR's not even mentioned using the exact words of that guy's post.

    Who is the best finishing guard in the NBA this season

    or

    Who is the best finishing guard in the NBA for 2025-2026 season

    Stupid AI :wasntme:

    I"m going to get killed for saying this but it's more fun when AR runs the offense vs Luka. Lebron kind of just fits well with AR as well - he totally willing to set screens for him. They've played so many reps they got some of that Draymond/Steph synergy going

    I don't know it just feels more decisive with him, he's going to attack, shoot, or swing the ball and the offense doesn't seem to stall

    I don’t think you are going to get killed. Others, including myself have said the same thing. Where I do disagree is the AR/Bron being better than AR/Luka. Those 2 did great at the beginning of the season with Bron out an extended period of time.
