They literally just said he average 25 shots per game and idiots who probably can’t dribble a basketball keep typing “40+”
Y’all a special kinda slow…

For those who are gonna say ‘chucker’ ’40 shots a game’
Dude makes 39.2 points on 24 shots a game. Less than MJ took to make 37 ppg. Hate on that bitches.

I see harden scoring 100…. He has the skill to do it and get a triple double doing it

Harden avg 25.36 FGA for 39.2 PPG
Beal is avg 23 FGA for 30 PPG
Kyrie is avg 23 FGA for 28 PPG
Kawhi is avg 22 FGA for 27 PPG
he is by far the best score in NBA history

Boo Orange no he is not, Michael Jordan was followed by wilt chamberlain, followed by Kobe and harden 4th. In today’s nba Kobe and Jordan could also score 40 a game which harden has failed to do yet. He takes double the amount of 3s than Kobe has the foul advantage of today’s game. Sorry but if you actually watched Michael and Kobe play at their best and the defense that they were facing you would not say that.

Harden’s accepted he’ll always suck in the playoffs so he’s putting everything into the reg season. Should make his annual postseason collapse even more spectacular!

Everybody talks about harden in the playoffs
Only team beating HOU last few years is one of the greatest teams of all time —GSW.
Dude still hooped 35ppg playoffs
Only thing that needs to happen is defense and team ball in playoffs like the other night vs blazers —
Harden catches soo much hate. He’s one of the most gifted offensive players to ever lace em up.
If he can get it done post season perhaps it will change how he’s viewed. We shall see. Go H-Town!!!!! Clutch City.

Imagine how hyped up harden would be if he was putting up these stats after winning a championship last year or at least making the finals
. Kawhi won and instantly skyrocketed, lebrons been winning for a long time. Steph had that crazy year after their first championship and ppl started saying he was better than lebron. Playoffs matter for reputation

Too bad harden will never win a championship. No player in history has one the NBA and averaged over 30 points in the regular season and playoffs. Too bad for him.
