They continue to reach for the ball when he puts it out there if you don't want to foul him don't go for the ball. His basketball IQ is thru the roof. I can 100% understand not enjoying a players style. I can't stand Giannis style of basketball I consider it boring but it doesn't mean I hate him because of it. There is a pure hatred for Harden to the point where they downplay every he has done and continues to do. It's criminal.

That sounds like it would hurt!

It's hilarious to me the level of hate the national media and casual fans have for harden and the love for Luka. Luka has modeled his game after Harden. He has said so on many occasions. I wonder what the one giant difference between Harden and Luka is... Harden has been putting up historic numbers for seasons now yet people still hate.

If Harden was either a family man like Steph or white it would be a completely different tune. The disrespect from the media and the casual fan is crazy.

I've never understood hatred for Harden. Dude is a great great player. Luka and Harden have very similar games.

Love watching both Harden and Luka.

Harden plays for the foul too much. Smart basketball. Boring to watch. Plus he's a flopper. Fans don't like that. What's so hard to understand about it?

There is a lot of things he does on the floor that only he and maybe couple other players can do but with less efficiency.
I understand flopping is a bit much but flopping is part of the game now. Luka flops a lot too tbh but ppl don't hate him.

Suns blowing out the Thunder late in the 4th and will be 6-0 in the bubble. Booker with 35 points in 29 mins before sitting the 4th. Ayton missed the 1st quarter after a late Covid test, but started the 2nd quarter and helped the Suns erase an early 15 point deficit.

Suns vs Blazers for that 8th seed will be freaking awesome!!!

Kind odd they had all teams playing 8 games instead of scheduling it to have all teams play the same number of regular season games. As it stands now, if both teams win out, the Blazers will have a half game lead over the Suns in the win column due to their schedule prior to the shut down.

You don't have to be so sensitive about it. Does Harden play for the foul too much? Yes. Does Harden flop? Yes. I explained why people don't like him. I'm not wrong, even if you don't like it.

Celtics up 12 on the Grizz near the end of the 3rd quarter. Mavs up 7 on the Blazers midway through the 1st

If you like ticky tack calls on both ends of the floor and a free throw shooting contest, I guess

The Kings/Pels games - two bad teams with their scrubs - might be the worst TNT game of all time
