Should not be so hard on Harden. Like the other Rocketeer (Gordon), they must have been partying really hard. Really showed. Who else do you think took the most out of LA weekend nights?lol
Luka Doncic life matters too. No to racism!

Regarding Embiid's exolosiveness: he is still getting his legs under him. Happened last year. As the season goes on, his explosiveness has increased more and more. January '17 he was looking a lot more explosive than he did in that November '16 and was looking far closer to how he did in Kansas. Right now he isn't quite to the point where was last January, but he has been dunking far more explosively as of late versus the beginning of last year. That being said, there is certainly diminishing returns to explosiveness when you are that tall. Him being back to the previous explosiveness mostly makes him flashier, not necessarily much better aside from better put back dunks.

All the other GS players feel like much lesser versions of themselves in any game not in GS. Harden is still tough to guard but not the same when so many good athletes on the floor. Those 3 seem to make big plays in every game they play. I probably put Kyrie in that group as well. Embiid was maybe the only player on team Curry that could get a good shot consistently.
Yeah, Klay sucked. Only 15 points on 11 shots.![]()
And Draymond was only +15 in 18 minutes, he sucked too. Warriors clearly terrible.
Did you really just give me plus minus stats in an all-star game.
Klay only thing he did was make open 3 pointers. That is great. Creating shots on his own just isn't his thing. He not a passer. His entire game is shooting and man to man defense.
