That has nothing to do with the NBA lol. If you’ve ever hooped competitively or for a team you know how not to dribble. He literally tried to hesi cross with no space to dribble. That has nothing to do with being in the NBA
@@dandredildy steaks lol I know but getting steals doesn't necessarily mean you play good consistent defense because you can gamble and lose your man there's also a lot of great defenders that don't get a lot of steals but are great position and help defenders that don't show up on stat sheets .
Until he’s on the court in the nba playing defense. He used to be good then he just became lazy overtime I just think he didn’t want to be cooked here by regular guys so he tried 😂
He only played defense when Kobe called his ass out that's why kobes the goat he'd trash talk you to get the best out of you just to burn you unlike Stephanie curry and Lepeds who try and be friend you or hide around illegal screens todays NBA are all soft divas none are top 10 all time except maybe lbj who was also good during the 2000s every one else are just putting up stats because the NBA is fast paced no defense
You casuals always forget he was one of the best defenders on OKC and would guard guys like Kobe, Manu, D wade, Ray Allen etc. and would was actually playing great defense. He changed when he went to Houston and Mike Dantoni made him focus all his energy only on ISO and offense and told him to let his teammates pick up the slack defensively.
@@andrewobergpretty accurate, if u had a 40 ovr nba defense and went to LA fitness where those guys have 10 ovr NBA defense than your LA Fitness defense is indeed 99 and ur nba defense is indeed 40 if the nba plauers have way higher defensive skill ratings

I love how in America you can be playing basketball and an NBA Player or a celebrity who likes to play basketball pull it to play and they just be so chill and calm, if I was playing and saw James Harden pulling up I’d freak tf out 😂
Not all of us are that obsessed with celebrities. when he first got to Chicago Lonzo ball played some pick up with us and it was cool but it’s not a life changing experience. it’s just a more recognizable person than average people are. Hardest game I’ve ever played even though I’m 6’9 though 😂 bro locked my big ass up
