Dallas is not doing a good enough job

Refs doing a good job of bailing him out..Those shot attempts aren't counted..He has had at least 16 shot attempts where 6 fouls were called..At least 3 were bad calls..

He is doing great because he is adding points for his team at the line and with assists. Regarding his FTAs. It's like umps/pitchers/stike zone. Harden is like a Tom Glavine or GregMaddux of the nba.

his team is winning and he is shooting at a 60%TS clip, while dishing out 10 assists. you need to accept the fact that drawing fouls is an elite skill because it involves an arsenal of head and ball fakes and changes of speed that keeps a defender guessing. in the playoffs drawing fouls is even more crucial, along with shot selection. getting to the line is part of the tightening up of a player's game that you want to see.

we won't know until tomorrow what the ratio of his usage to assist rate is but the likelihood is that it will be 1:1 or perhaps .80:1. he hurt his team last year when this ratio veered wildly from his regular-season ratio.

I'm sure you enjoyed the defense he has been playing tonight as well....

I understand why they thought that even though I really wanted him to stay a Knick.

If only the knicks could have bought low on Leonard, Ilyasova, nad Middleton this summer like I wanted.

YB for GM? Move out Mills.

I didn't understand it but I wasn't open minded about anything Mike D did.

He was too poor of a shooter for them even though he does provide energy and defense. I was upset they chose Walker over him.
