Me too. I just didn't think he was focused. Still think Wiseman will be good though too if he gets with the right organization.

Nets implode at home in the 4th. That's a shame.

What if Harden is cooked? He looks old, fat and slow. If this is the version they get for the entire year they aren’t a legit threat.

Harden looks like a totally different player when he can't get 12 free throws every game by jumping into people.

Harden is going to have to learn how to play basketball.

The Nets are already crying about the lack of calls for Harden.

No way the officials keep this up. The NBA will fold to these cry babies

So freakin glad the NBA changed that ridiculous jumping into people 3pt crap. It was killing the game.

Also noticing less foul calls across the board, they finally get that nobody wants to watch boring free throws.

I am kind of shocked that they're actually enforcing the rule change on Harden. I thought they would only enforce it on lesser players and players who play for small market teams. Not their manufactured golden boy Harden in big market Brooklyn.

I agree with you though, I think the league will slowly fold and start giving Harden those calls again. I'd bet money that by playoff time Harden will once again be getting 10+ free throws a game by throwing himself into people.

Wish NBA had a loan system. SGA on a fringe playoff contender for a few years while the Thunder tank would be good for everybody.

Embiid taking his frustrations out with a hard foul on the wrong abnormally tall Aussie PG.

Not sure KPJ being allowed to do whatever the **** he wants out there averaging like 7 TOV/game is good for anyone. If John Wall doesn't wanna play a lesser role and mentor the young guys I would consider bringing in someone who would, kinda like Rubio on the Cavs

Jalen Green's gonna be insane in a few years tho.

Also Harden's game falling off after his garbage foul baiting gets taken away and he loses half a step athletically would be pretty hilarious after all the "no skill" nonsense he kinda started with Giannis.

I do think he'll get back to MVP form soon enough when he plays his fat ass into shape but I'm gonna enjoy this while it lasts lol.

I wouldn't rule out the chance that Harden gets stressed out over this rule change and gains another 15, making him unplayable.
