I got so used to harden just hitting every crazy step back and carrying teams it was just whatever, and I haven’t even watched that much of harden since the last time he was doing this stuff, but it’s still so awesome to see, definitely took this for granted
Man it's so satisfying to see harden doing himself as a real ex-MVP player with a fantastic performance proves that he's not finished yet (butler said it)
Everyone's talking about his confidence, honestly this is the first time I've seen Harden have fun playing basketball in awhile. I've hated the chatter about him about him being washed out, or just not a good teammate. He gave Houston a lot of years, and ultimately didn't like what the front office was doing when he left. Sure he wasn't professional about it, but hey, he got what he wanted. Then you look at Brooklyn, which was just a mess from the start, and this year showed the cracks in their foundation as a team, and that talent does not equal success if you don't know how to use the pieces. He's in the right situation in Philly. I'm not even a fan of theirs, but he doesn't need to be primary, but when he does go off... everyone is in trouble.

He doesn't dribble randomly, he reads the defense and base his next move on what the defense gives him. If you reach, he grabs you then flops; If you play close, he blows you by; If you stand still, he steps back; If you force him right, he goes left; If you force him left, he goes right.

He is a new player in the NBA this is not the old Harden this is a new player in the nba play maker and now knows when to pass when to shot and when to make every 1 look good and wide open and ready to shoot..

Yea it’s just part of the game… harden put Houston on the map(since Hakeem) but again having a team(curry) is all harden needed..he was at fault some(playoff lowlights) but I do hope he wins a chip… honestly hope Wins one just not next season
So the first 2 games MIA fans were beating their bird chests because their team beats a team without their best player. Embid returns for the next 2 games and MIA losses. Don't be surprised if PHI takes the next 2 games. Harden stepped up big time. Good tough win PHI and you can pull this off 💪.
If he keeps this up big if Philly coming out the east can’t nobody stop them if harden plays like this along with the best scoring big man since Shaq and a young Maxey
