at first I was thinking "I don't have 30 minutes to watch a Har'en flopping complilation video" but then I saw they only picked highlights from the last few games. J/K, but shoot, it's on an every game basis. It's shameful.
I can't believe he got "Artested" only once. I would seriously consider, signing some local YMCA guy to a 10 day contract, just so he could punch Harden in the face. I've been told, that "IT" is skill though. What the hell do i know...
honestly, he does stuff as egregious as any of that at least twice a game. they only showed one arm grab!
Did Soften flop on the Lurch's tap on the back? Lol Now we need a compilation of Soften playing "defense". Generational talent.
Come on guys, why you have to be hatin? It's clear he had no other choice but to flop a tad against those giants. How else was he supposed to play against the modern versions of Shaq like Carter-Williams, DeRozan od Curry? Duh
Honestly infuriates me watching those flopping videos, how you can argue that being able use illegal offensive moves and it doesn’t elevate your game is beyond me. Basically like Abeer said for me, Arenas with a million plus fouls.
that was bad, but i find the media attention on it a little odd. the play affected nothing. lebron gained no advantage by walking with the ball for two steps while nothing occurred and the defense wasn't even pressuring him. the point of the officials is to stop people from gaining advantages by playing outside the rules. so, you know, focus on harden.
I have to say, over the years I have heard Laker fans denigrate every player in the league. Most on Lakers forums ripped on Lebron, Wade, Melo, Bosh, Dirk, CP3, Westbrook, Nash, etc etc etc. Rarely do we acknowledge any other teams great players. So I always take these kinds of hater threads with a grain of salt. That being said, Harden is an abomination. I am totally blown away that the league does not look at these videos and see the truth of his BS. Personally I think the league should come down VERY hard on him and knock him down a couple of notches. I actually predict if he EVER wins an MVP and even a ring that this will hurt the league more than they apparently realize. I have to say that if the Lakers were still in their down cycle and the likes of Harden was ruling the league, I would take my near 60 years of league support and thrown it in the trash. The NBA better realize soon that viewership is way down, I have read it is down ~25% this year. Harden may help viewership in Houston but everywhere else people are blown away with what the league is letting him get away with. I absolutely HATE his game. When I used to read the hate towards Wade, I would usually defend him. You gotta recognize talent, even if it is on another team. Harden??? F' him!!! The worst excuse for NBA player I have ever witnessed. NBA, quit coddling this loser!!!
it's a smart play, tbh. if you know you're getting the whistle with his d****** stretchy arms maneuver, at least make sure he doesn't get a shot up. booker did similar last night on the break. he had his body in front of harden and they were running towards the basket, harden throws a shoulder into him and booker just grabs him around the shoulders so that a) he doesn't fly out of bounds and b) f*** harden.
Not NBA related but MORON referee related. Check the ref staring right at this play and doing nothing. What a cheap shot .... damn! https://www.yahoo.com/news/saint-leo-basketball-sucker-punch-144808458.html
