on 10/21 shooting and 21/22 from the line

Jesus Christ that is bad.

Yea. He shot more free throws than the entire Pacers team

Pacers were intentionally fouling near the end.

King James!

His stats need a huge asterisk next to them for being so ref-reliant.

In before "drawing fouls is a skill" and other excuses that never get made for other players who shoot a lot of free throws (and still never even come close to Harden's FT's). When other players do it, it's "flopping" and "superstar calls," but somehow for Harden, it's a magical "skill."

Watching James Harden play basketball is like listening to Mozart...




...being played by Limp Bizkit.

Who cares about boring, uninspiring, ref reliant basketball?

He'd be more exciting if he scored nothing, at least we'd see his team mates play real ball.

Cheers

It'd be nice to see the hilights of the fouls to see if he deserved all of the free throws or not.

This guy's game is absolutely un-watchable.

This is where "sports" are heading, players are getting very "creative" and "original". Why bother to entertain, winning is everything.

I do hope beard winning MVP this year, just so we can witness another slap to the face of sports

Nobody wants to relive watching that.

Harden is the definition of a manufactured "superstar." Take his calls away and he wouldn't be able to do much at all. Before someone tells me he's "crafty," Paul Pierce was crafty, Harden is a flop artist.

Anyways let's see if these calls continue in the playoffs. If they don't then the Rockets better get ready for another 1st round exit.

Not bad from 43 made free throws.

It'd be hilarious to see that fake "superstar" pull a 2007 Dirk and have to sheepishly accept his MVP after another first-round exit.

Even when he is not making his shots, he will force his way to 20-30 points. He is just amazing. I'm sure if the league were to implement a Harden-rule to limit his FTs, he would find another way to score. Also, its one ability to generate so many fts, the other is his ability to make all of them. Harden, Mr. Reliable.

Don't agree at all. It starts with his great shooting ability and his deceptive athleticism. He shows amazing body controls, gets into the lane at will, finishes through weaker defenders. He oversells fouls, but most are still fouls. Then you look at his ball handling and passing ability, he got it all really.

MVP

He set me up like a boss to start my semi finals match-up in fantasy, 10 category scoring. Needless to say I don't see the problem.

Fun Stat. Harden hasn't had a game with 50% or higher after the All Star break.
