Ever wonder why James Harden is allowed to take as many steps as is necessary to escape his defender?

The reason is: that he is carried at all times by refs. So his feet never touch the ground. Can't take steps when you're being carried.

This additionally explains why every time an opponent assumes a defense stance Harden is sent to the line for 25 free throws

Now you all understand.

This year Harden is having an amazing season. He is set to average the most amount of minutes being carried by the refs of all time. This plus his phantom free throw record may never be beaten. Enjoy the greatness :applause:

Words are as dated as 90s basketball - gen Z fans communicate with gifs and if you don't like it you don't like 2019 NBA basketball
