Kevin Durant Says James Harden Finding 'Balance' Between Passing, Scoring 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jan 26, 2021 6:18 am

James Harden said that he was still getting used to playing alongside Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant after dominating the ball during his time with the Houston Rockets. 


"I was in a role for eight years, controlling the ball, dominating the ball. Now it's a different experience for me, but it's still great," said Harden following the Nets' 98-85 win over the Heat.


Harden finished the game with 20 points and 8 assists, including 10 in the fourth quarter.


Kevin Durant, who added 20 points and 13 rebounds, said that Harden is still finding the right balance between scoring and passing. 


"Feels like he just transferred to a new school and he's trying to figure out the curriculum. ... as a scorer and the focal point of your offense, sometimes the balance between score and pass -- you got to figure that out each night."
