I've said it before Harden doesn't play to score. He play for the fouls.
I don't like his game but its basketball. If I was reffing this game I probably would've stopped blowing my whistle for him
all of the greatest guards go for contact on the drives. the ones that don't will never be great. no guard is going to make all or even most of his drive attempts legitimately.

Where were the haters when Harden dropped 28 on Spurs with only 6 FT on 11-16 shooting?

Waiting on Howard to have an off game so they can celebrate.

i didn't watch the game. i don't care what happened.
a stat like that jumps at you like a guy having 15 turnovers.
20 points on 8 field goal attempts seems pretty efficient to me.
Don't see how that's anywhere near a 15 turnover performance? What Harden did was a positive thing, game-wise. I don't see how you could turn it around on him any other way.

Does Harden really do that regularly?
On one bad call, Harden pulled a move he’s fond of – grabbing his defender’s arm to draw foul

And I've never buried my head in the sand and tried to deny Durant doing that is cheap. I've admitted many times I don't like him doing that. Yet there's several of Rockets fans in this thread claiming Harden'smFTs last night were legit.

Most of the fouls were legit. Harden is relentless at attacking the basket and many times he gets no calls even when fouled. And sometimes he gets a call when there was not one. He puts a lot of pressure on refs. Also his flopping does not help his reputation but he is not the only star that does it. Hate the game, not the player.

Most of them were legit, other he exaggerated the contact aka every superstar in the nba.
The difference is that Memphis is used to play very physical every game and most of the time they get away with it, because they know the NBA will swallow the whistle if to many fouls are call, so later on games they can play with lot of physicality, just like Sloan's Utah used to play defense.
If Memphis is call they right way every night, most game will be like.
Don't blame Harden for taking advantage of the new NBA rules, if they don't like they can switch it back to 80's basketball or don't foul under the new rules.
