We all know harden has had playoff success but we also watched him choke away a few series as well. I don’t blame him for not making the finals with the warriors in the West. Harden is a great player top 5 in the nba easily I just hate how he has folded in most of the big games in the playoffs but I guess he ran out of gas.

James Harden gets less calls in the playoffs, and the reason this is important is because HE GETS TO REST while shooting freethrows, his team GETS TO REST while watching him shoot freethrows and his coach gets to plan while watching him shoot free throws.
Its basically the equivalent of a team having 4-5 extra timeouts, to catch there breath and think. remove that and he fizzles out.

That’s bs because he still averages 30 in the playoffs. The dude killed it in the playoffs last year and pushed the warriors to 7 games and only lost cuz cp3 was injured
Well Maybe...

Hardens Playoff failure is overblown because he had the worst playoff game ever against the spurs

People act like Harden gets swept in the first round every year. Dude runs into one of the greatest NBA teams (Warriors) of all time most years and it’s crazy people hold that against him. There was that one year against the Spurs he did get gassed in Game 6, but even that was the 2nd round.

The rest of the NBA (except maybey OKC) don’t know what it’s like for us Houston Rockets fans to have the most hated man on earth to be our superstar player. It sucks ass everytime he does something amazing, to just listen to the national hate and doubting of James Harden. Yeah yeah I know Durant is hated, but the rest of the Warriors are rather beloved and admired, so don’t bring that up. Having your superstar player be so damn hated is taxing for a fan.

Hardens averages always go down in the playoffs.
That’s the problem…
They should be going up.

James Hardens Post Season success is honestly pretty damn good for a guy of his caliber. This is a shooting guard that will go down as the 3rd best of all time, easily if he wins one ring

Only if Having Chris Paul and the rest of the team healthy they can beat Golden state warriors. Bet on that.

If Lebron James couldn’t win one game against that team with a hall of fame Kevin Love on his roster why was we expecting Harden to win alone? Once Paul went down we all knew it was over.

James harden is gonna be just like Steve Nash. Getting to the wcf or playoffs every year but never winning the big one. It happens with all d Antonis teams they seem to never win the big one. D antonis offense can only take you so far :/
