Harden should never have a problem, he only ever plays half a game because the concept of defense apparently terrifies him.

We seeing hardens true colours now. His ego hurt cause russ been way better now,. That speaks volumes about him as a player, he does not prioritize winning, h wants stats accolades, praise, and to be the best player.hes more mad about Giannis winning mvp over losing in playoffs. You can tell watching him play, hearing how he talks after wins vs losses, high scoring games vs low. And then he lies and acts like hes not aware when hes 1-17 shooting or 10 turnover,. But he knows exact numbers when it’s a 50 piece. Only he would be upset at winning if he ain’t the one doing everything, he been spoiled too long, and D’antoni has done nothing but encourage his bad behaviour, and I think its cause he knows hes not a good coach either, that’s why he let’s em do whatever he wants, and dude had a sweet deal for a while letting James basically sign his paycheck.

I find it funny how people want to give Harden a pass on being tired because of usage rating; when he’s playing with the guy(Westbrook) with one of the highest usage ratings ever. And usually the guys with the highest usage rating put they all in the game. When Harden shot isn’t going down or isn’t getting sent to the line 20 times. He disappears.
