He hasn’t been playing bad at all. Although it’s on an extremely small smaple size, he’s averaging 14 points and 4.5 assists on 54/50/100 splits. Turnovers are an issue as he’s averaged about 3 per game. I’m pretty confident in saying Harden will not play offball for any significant amount of time. What do you think we can do with Harden?
Put in a position to average 22-11? I just don’t understand why people bring this up he was the main ball handler playing with an MVP in embiid there’s a huge difference to where games he”ll be the fourth primary ball handler it’s just how it is. Not a slight but there’s a reason people did not want the trade.
Touches, usuage, pace and defense all four of which which were spread evenly and well Amna ahead now are coincidently our main issues. You also can’t mention 5 assists with turnovers and say that’s any different with 4 assists and 4 TO same impact. Harden is not the same guy and you guys have to see that. It’s a lot like the Russ fit with the lakers.
None of them are as good as harden in terms of ball-handling. They’ll have to realize that. It is better to have one elite ball-handler than 3 mid ones.
