    Not to beat a dead horse, but seeing how Clippers fans are already talking about Harden is killing me

    “It still early but yeah agree that he looks suuuper slow and unathletic out there. I didn’t realise he was that sluggish tbh, I thought he had a bit more bounce in his legs but he looks cooked in terms of athleticism. I still have hope he can use his playmaking to help us but his general pace is just so painfully slow right now”

      Just features of the system. I was honestly saying the same thing even when he was leading the league in assists last year. It’ll be interesting to see if they can work it out this year but I think Embiid made James’ life a LOT easier last year than he may have appreciated and PG might be the only other superstar on his team whose game actually meshes properly.

      It’s also funny that they have to lean on Tucker so much without the benefit of an Embiid/Giannis/Bam manning the paint while he may have healthier legs than 3 of the big 4. Meanwhile the only other scorers are guards who can’t play extensively with Harden and Russ.

      I might have to check out more Clippers games for pure schadenfreude.
