Harden exposed, he tried to intentionally draw a foul vs LeBron, failed

[k0kakw0rld]

ahahahaha thank you ref, what a disgrace this guy is.

[edrick]

Yep, very clearly was trying to hold onto him. Harden does that all the time.

[STATUTORY]

two masters of their craft trying to outdo each other

like bobby fischer versus deep blue

Lebron was clamping him too. I thought it was a good no call because both could have been called

I'd have to see it again but yeah, upon first glance it really did look like two guys both trying to pull the same trick (initiating a grab and acting like they're not the ones clamping). Very unique and hilarious situation.

The right call probably would have been a double foul but I'm alright with the officials watching those two be ridiculous.

two master flopper trying to outflop each other

like bobby fischer versus deep blue

for some reason this had me in tears

i think harden did try to get a foul called, he looked so awkward afterwards and complained so little it was obvious

[HylianNightmare]

I'm so glad I witnessed that

[Rake2204]

Oh man, it's awful, haha: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trKnjd6mTYk

Harden leaving his unrestricted arm extended and beneath LeBron James, refusing to "untangle" himself, haha.

Initially I had thought Lebron was behind the hook.

But now it's clear that it's Harden. He attempts a hook on the drive, then when the ref doesn't call anything when Harden gathers the ball, he again attempts to hook and drag James into him, even flopping a little to try and get a call.

What a disastrous sequence altogether. Don't think I've seen anything like it.

Yep, that may have been a first for me too. As I said, I think a double foul would have made the most sense but I part of me feels fine about the officials stepping back and essentially folding their arms and saying, "Okay... we're just going to let you guys figure out this stupidity yourselves."

Both pos players should be suspended for the rest of the season. All they do is destroy the integrity of the game with their childlike shit antics. What a fvcking disgrace. Seriously, fvck em both. We're trying to watch basketball here not a movie auditioning who's the best actor.

Calm down bro. No need to post some retarded shit like this.

harden gets hard to watch with this nonsense

I like your idea of a double foul, but yeah, letting them make a fool of themselves on national television works too!
