James Harden back to his old self tonight, as the Clippers are starting to work things out. Kawhi had a great game with 34 points, 9 rebs, 14-18 FG. Westbrook with 19 minutes off the bench, had 2-6 FG.

He should have had 40
Dude passes up so many open looks
Really don’t understand why
Ahh I was wondering why he wasn’t on the front page
ok now do that for 2 games in a row
Weird that OP put Russ stats without his 8 assists lmao
You can’t create a narrative if you post what really happened.
10 bad games for 1 good game. worth it!
His old self was double these numbers, but I get you
He still is capable of having great games every now and then, as most former stars are. It’s why he dropped 40 twice against the Celtics in the playoffs last year. The issue with him is surviving all the other games where he isn’t on, like the other 5 games in that Boston series where he only shot 25% from the field and 15% from 3.
cannot beleive people were genuinely saying he should retire after last game. the beards still a big time player
Westbrook stats look so much worse that way 9 points on 6 shots, 8 assists 1 TO
My man has like 7 hockey assists too.
It’s just too bad this kind of thread sinks into the mud where the one by that mutant Mavs announcer spewing garbage goes to r/all.
that one legitimately riled me up. i don’t care if someone dislikes Harden, but that “speech” and the accompanying thread full of comments like “wowza this guy spit all facts” was so mind-numbingly stupid. that guy just ripped half-truth after half-truth (provably so) and tons of people creamed themselves over how “objective” he was in presenting the situation accurately.
i hated Harden in the Houston days but he’s probably my favorite non-Spurs player now. he’s just a really good player and by all accounts a great dude off the court. it’s hilarious how all of his detractors have to rely on outdated or completely invented narratives to justify their dislike of him.
The sides of our fanbase that hates Russ and the side of our fanbase that hates Harden are a good dichotomy for all basketball debates on reddit ever and tell us a lot about the true Nihilism of human condition in the internet age.
System
Harden truthers eating good lfg
MITHarden rise up
80.25% true shooting tonight
Sad to see Westbrook’s career peter out like this
I mean, he did really good a few nights ago in Dallas and had some good assists. This post just has an agenda.
