Side note: James Harden is an offensive savant. What he was doing to Portland last night was sick...and doing it totally out of shape and heavy.
That being said, I wouldn't trade for that guy for anything. He showed everything right and wrong with him last night.
Right: Can absolutely fill it up and is virtually unstoppable. Clearly ridiculous....you know exactly what he's doing and you still can't stop it.
Wrong: Is selfish and all about himself. He drives with the game on the line last night, blows the pass and then blames PJ Tucker (and this after he drove and lost the ball away at the end of reg). The look on Tucker's face as Harden walked away says it all...Tucker plays harder than just about anyone, and does more with what he has than anybody on that team, and for James to blame him at the end was so wrong and why he couldn't lead a team out of a Walmart much less to the ring.
