How bad was James Harden today?

[zoom17]

Was he really bad or are people overreacting?

He was James Harden.

His name is James Hardon

[USABall]

He was quite disgraceful with his barreling into opposing players looking for fouls, or as ESPN calls it, 'old school' and 'crafty'.

However, he was effective

[NattyPButter]

Looks like the same Harden as always...can only shoot 3's and flop for fouls.

The players on Team USA must have thought he was playing fine. They kept giving him the ball to bring it up the court and set up the offense. He took his usual ill advised 3s and was effective on the drive. I think he tried to play some defense though.

You are so ****ing delusional it's unbelievable. At one point the dude had 8 points on zero field goals. He is the quintessential ball hogging, system manipulating, smelly black hole. His game is straight out of Houston, it's like he gives no shits about changing his game or adapting to the setting. Dude legit thinks he's Lebron out there and can do whatever the hell he wants to.

3 on 1 fast break for Team USA...Harden blatantly ignores his teammates and flails his arms for a foul when he could've made ONE extra pass to get a teammate an easy bucket.

Harden has the ball at the top..holds on to it for 12 seconds, then bulldozes his way to the rim until he's stripped, and as expected he flops like he got kicked in the dick by Kimbo Slice.

****ing LOL at "tried to play some defense"...Steve Nash once tried to play defense. He still sucked ass at it. The sad part is that James Harden is big and athletic for his position.

Captain Efficiency. Mr. Efficient. Lord of the Efficients.

Harden needs to learn how to be the 2nd option. I think if he played #2 to Howard instead of trying to be the man he would be way better
