What the **** was that. For **** sakes, man. Harden is the MVP but he needs to stop with this **** and the swinging his elbowns everytime he drives stuff. He's talented enough, no need for this.
Good assessment:

This one is disgusting, but the refs are even worse lol

Not saying I agree with the call, but it wasn't on Harden laying on him to get a call, it was his other hand hooking Harden into place. Just clarifying what the call was, it was technically right but weak, Harden fouled by laying on him after MCW fouled by 'clamping' Harden.

The flopping and soft play by the elite players continues to sink to new lows right along with the officiating. This is becoming an all too familiar aspect of the game.

The fact that plays like this are so impactful on the outcome of the game makes them less enjoyable to watch. The Bulls were on a good run at the time of this call and MCW had been playing well, and the score was tied. The Bulls eventually lost this game by four points.

I understand that officials will miss calls in every game. However, this was atrociously bad.

That's disgusting. I hope they don't reward this kind of crap with a MVP

The MVP is Russ

If you look closely, you can also see Harden's left hand grabbing a handful of MCW's jersey right before he mounted him. There was just as much if not more contact initiated by Harden than whatever type of "clamping" MCW did.

I say BS, he jumped on his back & rode him like a horse.

Yeah, after the foul they actually called. They didn't call anything on the Harden jumping on him part, the foul happened before that, though the whistle came later.
