Harden's made multiple defensive plays this 3rd Q, is he...turning a corner?
If you watch the Rocket play.
1. They go for every steal, so that sometimes makes Harden look bad
2. Harden sometimes zones out and gets caught ball watching. Has problems leaving open spot up shooters.
3. Actual one on one, on ball defense he is pretty good at and once in a while he gets some great steals.
Anyway came in here to give JJ Redikk his props.
Last 15 games:
19 points per game, 54% 3pt shooting and only 1 turnover per game. He is the best spot up shooter in the NBA this season. It's getting to the point where teams have to face guard him and deny the ball. So that allows the clippers to play 4 on 4. With CP3 playing 4 on 4 is extremely tough to stop.
