He met lil baby that’s what happened. Take from that what you will, maybe he started taking Percocet? Who knows
Lil baby isn’t on drugs anymore, hasn’t for a while (obviously I could be wrong but real ones know) at the end of the day harden is his own man and makes his own decisions, if he did start taking drugs (it’s known he would go to studio sessions til early hours of the morning and then go drop 30-40 points lol) anyways if he did, it’s his own fault
Maybe
He’s got too big of a name to start doing that shit now
@@RealWilsonMusic if he started to be seen with J Cole instead… do you think he would be different how he is now
@@eatmyshorts2024 I’m just saying the only way he would be taking Percs rn is if he already struggled with addiction with it in the past
James Harden will forever be my favorite player but man 2014-2021 was some of the most insane basketball we’ve ever seen🔥🔥
had to sub up for this vid
@@TheKendeHD yuhhhh
@@nbagoober13 your vids are trash, harden is dog shit
Idk how people think 30+ points on 30 shots is good.
It’s the opposite of good, it’s sloppy-selfish play.
Fans like you are ruining the game.
@@heathyoung99 the man was crazy efficient. That’s y his teams won lots of games. He was an amazing player and fans like u denying his greatness r ruining the game.
Been seeing a lot of James Harden Praise lately, I feel like it’s because people think we won’t ever see the old James Harden again, so people are starting to appreciate what we had. Glad I was always a fan and got to witness some of the best iso ball ever. Hopefully he gives us one or two more elite years and maybe just maybe get a chip along the way 💪
Never gonna appreciate flopping and choking, hope he gets forgotten. Also yea he infected his team with Covid
@@TheTariqibnziyad haters gonna hate
@@elvinator i hate players who made basketball worse, basically Harden and Westbrick
@@TheTariqibnziyad explain how they made basketball worse.
@@TheTariqibnziyad couldn't figure it out?
if james harden ever wins a chip im literately going to fall on my knees crying ive been wanting this man to succeed for the longest he deserves it for the carry job he had to do for most of his whole career
Man 100% deserves it.
I hope you are not a grown man acting like this
@@cameroncampbell1638 no he doesnt
Facts hopefully he wins a ring one day
This is literally cringe
I used to hate Harden's playstyle back when I don't understand his moves yet. I thought he was just dribbling many times then shooting a step-back randomly. I also thought that his euro-step was a travel up until someone explained it in a youtube video and showed a slower version of it. It blew my mind how creative he is and how there's more to his game than just random dribbling and shooting that casuals wouldn't understand. He baits fouls because it's an efficient way of scoring. He knows the rules and he bends them to his favor. He changed his playstyle a lot from OKC up to his MVP season. He mastered the euro-step then also mastered the step-back. He mastered the triple threat and the size-up isolation moves. He also mastered the pick and roll. I'm kinda sleepy while writing this so I'm not gonna finish it
@@SuperRainbowpoop exactly
Grew up in Houston and became a basketball fan in 2013 cuz The Rockets got Dwight Howard. Had no idea who Harden was going in to it. Harden made me obsessed with the game. Now basketball is my favorite sport and I’m a die hard Rockets fan, and got 3 garden jerseys over the years. I even got the Harden 1s on drop as my first paid of signature shoes. I will always defend this man with my life
Harden is one of my favorite players of all time. The dude looks like he never tries. He runs full speed maybe once every 10 games, it almost looks like he just walks to all his spots. He trolls the refs with his double step backs and foul drawing methods. He’s genuinely a really good dunker but he’s always too lazy to actually do it. He legit does not try at all on defense. And he does all this crap while scoring 50+ points 🤣
It’s just awesome
@vrtxte well yea but still. Shit was awesome
Exactly. His demeanor and even the way he moved on the court was just "work smarter not harder" embodied. I noticed that when I looked at the angles he took on defenders in the lane. He never really worried about beating anybody to a spot, he just countered by stepping in an unexpected direction and positioning his shoulders to clear the defender out of his release space.
I love Harden bro, I really hated him for some time and I was one of those guys who thought his playstyle was disgusting but I realized that I was so wrong and he's such a great player. I really hope he succeeded with Philly after this awful year. 🔥🔥🏀🏀💯💯
the foulbaiting playstyle was disgusting tho
@@user-os3ml4uu6iFoulbaiting takes a degree/level of skill that u could never comprehend, i just hate it because everybody else does
@@SolusFather foulbaiting relies on what the league accepts and doesnt accept. When the league stopped taking as many fouls players like harden became significantly worse.
Greatness transcends eras and harden is not that
No his playstyle was disgusting but he was a great offensive talent .. as we’ve seen you’re not gonna win with that plat style
@@user-os3ml4uu6i The league literally had to implement huge rule changes just to nerf Harden. Guys who don't play basketball at a high level aren't able to comprehend the level of skill it takes to manipulated defenses the way Harden does. He his 2nd to none when it comes to that. If that didn't require skill, than every NBA player would be doing it. Period.
Harden injured his hammy twice in the last year. It takes 6 - 8 months to recover from 1. He was an MVP candidate in 2021. So this idea that Harden is fat and lazy and now doesnt care is false and it plays into the Harden hate.
Aye love the short casual analysis style man, very entertaining especially 3:55 😂 keep it up ! (ur 100th sub too)
Thank you so much dude!
I was finna say the same thing.
@@0XxBesTofTheRestxX0 preciate it!
ridiculous that this channel doesn't have more subs, great vid man, love the style!
That means a lot, thanks!
Holy shit bro, only watched 2 videos so far & already subbed. Rarely is it so obvious so quickly that the creator deserves a sub. Sup dude, congrats
People for some reason ignore his hamstring injury that he sustained which was a very serious grade 2 tear lol dude could barely walk after that and still tried to play but people question his heart. His season this year was very similar to Chris Pauls 2019 season where he was recovering from the same injury. The next year he led OKC to the playoffs, I imagine harden will have a similar resurgence with even better results. He'll be back
I love this dude at his peak man. I was always scared when GSW playing them. He's a beast, driving the lane, step back 3s he got all the offensive thing u could ask for. Hopefully he come back this season strong and we see his old self again.
Bandwagon spotted, LeBron was actually scary, Harden ? You serious ?
@@TheTariqibnziyad Bro almost knocked them out in Game 7 until the Rockets missed like 20 threes in a row
@@abdulrahmanshahid8665 a fluke, of Iggy was healthy GS in 5
@@TheTariqibnziyad Injuries are a part of basketball, we can't say if this if that.
Nice content spread the basketball knowledge king 🤴
Good shit man I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Keep it up!
W man prime harden is really underrated he had arguably the best scoring season of the decade in 2019 and arguably the best playmaking season of the decade in 2017. Consistently great since he got to Houston and is one of the most underrated offensive players ever
Not arguably the best scoring season of the decade at all there is no argument
20 LeBron & CP3 created a similar amount while not being historically turnover prone, I don't see it.
love the style and content keep up these vids bruh love it
Thank you so much!
@2:40 when you said he turned you on, i felt that
your thumbnails are crazy fire btw
Great Video man you should have more subs
Subbed - coming from a fellow small bball channel this is really high quality stuff. I need harden to average 26-6-10 next season
Thanks man!
New subscriber man. Love your vids
Made my day brotha
This is an amazing video 😂💯 thanks for making it 🙏🏾🙏🏾
good video bro hope this blows up
Prime James harden was a problem, very rarely have I seen a guy so good at his sport that he has majority of fans in a uproar cuz nobody could stop him, say what u want about foul baiting the guy still averaged 30 a game with adjusted stats and is one of the most prolific scorers to ever touch a basketball. Dude was a one man show down in Houston and it was electric to say the least
people complain that he's overrated and only has two moves, stepback or drive left. my response to that is "you let a guy with two moves average 36?"
It's time for James harden to embrace the manu ginobili role in the sixers
One weird year and 22,8,10 don’t sound so weird to me but you had a point he look kinda of disinterested or maybe it was the hamie either way he putting up 30 this year
Ongg
IMO Harden always looked a bit dis-interested, it's just the way he carries himself. I don't think he actually is though.
Seen this in my recommend and ended up watching the whole vid lmao good vid just subscribed
Yessir
This guy’s hella underrated
This channel is soo underrated keep up the good content :)
I really appreciate that!
@@nbagoober13 yeah man u are surely gonna make it! Short videos straight to the point with footage and your take on the topic in the background?! In a few months I'll say I was subscribed b4 u made it! Keep it up ma g!
@@joseluiiiis thank you man that means a lot🤞🏻
Great content man! Keep it up
The beard 🔥🍷 . Subbed u bro
Thank you bro people always disrespect harden and I think he’s one of the most talented players ever
Couldn’t believe the sub count after I watched this vid, this is heat man🙏🏽
Preeeesh
first game of the new season, and Harden dropped 35points
dis nigga james harden was playing like MY 2K BUILD in mycareer irl no other player are putting up literal 2K numbers mans was a goat 😭😭😭
Here before this channel blows up.
This is a gem.
yezzurrr
If Giannis got the wall, and Curry got the box and one, Harden got the weird treatment when teams guard him sideways so he drives instead of doing stepbacks. That's when you know he's pretty darn good at basketball.
I really respect James Harden's game. His skill level is insane. However,he was never able to put together a solid playoff run where he used all these skills he showed in the regular season and dominated in the playoffs. He never did that and that's a big black mark.
2018 rockets almost got to the finals
“Is planning when he can hang out with Le BeBe” 😂😂💀
James Harden's gut is more disgusting then his play
I watched a lot of his games that season and the reason I don't like how he plays is that it's so boring. Its either a pick and roll where he pops a three or drives, or an iso where he pops a three or drives. Even this highlight reel can't make it fun
Video is great, just want to make sure, what season did Elgin Baylor have 36+ppg? I see his best season at 34.77ppg in 1960-61. Looks like only Wilt (who did it a ridiculous 5 times), MJ and Harden are part of the 36ppg season club.
1961-1962 season Baylor averaged 38.3
@@chanceadams7043 you're absolutely right. I was looking at the page called "NBA & ABA Single Season Leaders and Records for Points Per Game" on basketball-reference and didn't see that season of Baylor's. Just noticed that they put a 65 game requirement for a season to appear on the list, so that's why that season isn't showing. 38.3ppg over 48 games is still some insane stats though
Everyone but Rockets fans use to hate harden until he moved teams. People will hate a certain style until that player plays for their favorite team
Dudes who doesn't get turned on by MVP Harden doesn't actually love basketball. As crazy as it sounds I thought he could take D Wade's place as the third nest SG of all time on that stretch.
sixers in 5. end of story.
The amount of disrespect this guy gets is unreal. Nephews be saying all he does is shoot freethrows. smh
Harden’s 36 PPG season is always hyped up by people but it just so happens to be one of his worst seasons as a Rocket.
I think \the different cities he's in rn are messing with him. As well as the fans/teammates
He had really become a Rocket and houstonian at that, that's why he is still so attached to H-town
It's all a mental thing right now, because we've seen him drop 40+ while being fat and slow, so he just needs to remember who he is
Harden completely terrorized the league for a solid 5 years him and curry definitely changed the game.
2:30 Note: this double step back 3 is not his usual Stepback, im a rockets fan and even i noticed it didn't look right live.
Bro right there it was a travel no cap watch it @ .25 speed shii was 3 steps
@@speakergangc i know? Im just saying he doesn't normally do that
@@UrMom-jb7vl i gotchu I was juss shocked how that didnt get called
If I’m not mistaken. He had an injury this last year and took that off season to rehab and didn’t get much training done maybe that’s what fucked him up this season but idk I could be wrong about the whole thing.
I don’t know how you don’t have more subscribers yet, good job dude
Thanks man!
i love this video dude
When you said the 3 point shot is the most efficient shot and the mid range is dead, you were wrong. As of this year. The 2 point shot had become more of an efficient shot to take per possession. Demar literally proved that the mid range ISNT dead.
james harden grew too reliant on foul baiting in his prime too much that he forgot how to play once the nba cracked down on ball handlers initiating contact with defenders.
tell me why i was thinking ricky at 0:48 before you said him LMAO
hardens for sure gonna have a bounceback season.. probably not houston rockets james but for sure alot better now that the hamstring has probably healed and he seems to be in his right frame of mind to win
“But but but but, fReE tHRoW bAiTiNg”
Rubio caught a stray on this one
What is the background music?
how the hell does he change his physique so fast all the time
Miss these days😭
playoff Harden is disgusting
My respect for you went 📈📈📈 when you called the people who complain about how Harden played back then pu**ies
Lmaoo
2:36 is some real ass shit and I'm glad somebody said it.
You're going to be huge man, keep it up!
Thank you!!
The nba literally had to make major rule changes because of harden. People were hating on him for basically finding a loophole in the rules and fucking the shit out of the system. Haters gonna hate, fuck em.
i stan this comment section. We want our king to get his ring soon
Prime harden isn't gone
Just wait for next season
He never relied on his athleticism to score there is no reason he couldnt come back
Favorite UA-camr
James Harden is a really great scorer, some casuals saying that because of the new rules Harden ddnt get much fouls now like before, i was like dude the guy is the 2nd to 3rd option on the nets but still avg 8 free throws. He is just a genius in getting a foul.
demar and harden on the same team would ve been great to see tho
i agree prime harden was groatesque but he washed up way faster than demar, his mid range elite game will allow him to score for a couple years still
Alright so no one is gonna mention that cursed jokic photo??
Free throw merchant doesn’t count to me
Nah man was a free throw spammer. That messed him up in the playoffs lol
it still feels weird to me that harden isnt in his prime any more
great video dude. earned a sub from me and i look forward too seeing more content
Thanks man!!!
Counting on a comeback season this year
I mean bruh, i wouldnt say he doesnt give a fuck about winning... Bro took a 10 mil pay cut so philly can sign some mofos
great video!
Thank you!
* asterisk the 3 pt. Line shouldn’t actually have existed by that point
** double Asterisk HardenBall didn’t work
sadly injuries raddled his journey, cant wait to see him win a ring
I agree with everything You said in this video besides the mid range shit being dead ✅ great video
What Rockets did in handing him his own team is what I hoped a team(Brooklyn) could have given that opportunity to Jaylen Brown and just love him for KD.
Honestly great video
Gotta play defense for chips, his career is a valuable lesson
You deserve way more subs
Extremely talented player but I still hate the fact that he focused so much of his game on drawing fouls instead of just playing basketball
1:45 “I mean…we got James.” - Mike D’Antoni
But ppl always forget to mention that he changed positions
How is 30+ points on 30+ shots a game insansity?
How is being the main factor to losing in the playoffs insanity?
I’m only 21 and I’m already to old for UA-cam.
Rockets fan since 92. He's the 2nd best Rockets ever. He wasn't clutch but he was dominant in the regular season.
The mid range shot is dead for those that aren't demar derozan. I want him taking it all day.
Another thing is the defense, he’s a liability in the defensive in. No clutch gene, no hustle, he always end up getting his ass locked up in the play offs, he always have these garbage performances. That’s why, I don’t trust him.
holy shit keep making videos i bet you will have thousands at least this is good content
Haha thanks hopefully one day!
He is back
you kinda ignored the rule changes that have affected his low pickup drive into a fouled shot. NBA refs no longer call this a foul.
I’m a pussy. Always been my most hated player. That being said, I really like the Sixers so I hope he can redeem himself this year.
he would wake up hungover from the club and then drop 50 later that night he was special man
what happened:
magnetic system is OFF for him nowadays;
solution:
he needs ANOTHER
sacrifice or ritual partaking
to have Superstar Status again
