He's not cruising.

He's not on load management to then come out and cruise in the games that he does play in. He hasn't looked right all season long.

Why don't you stop worrying what the 2 time Finals MVP is doing and go tell your idol the 2 time Frontrunning fakkit award winner Mr. Curry to stop milking that sprained labia injury and get back on the court so Draymond can stop embarrassing himself every time he brings the ball up the court

That's how OKC played him a couple weeks back and how GSW routinely plays him in the playoffs. Harden learned a floater 2 years ago to try and counter GSW's scheme of playing him for the drive with defenders waiting to contest/draw charges. Problem was he be bricking that floater at times.

That's probably the best way to play him, not all this double teamin stuff or playing him straight up.

The double team at half court works best. That 4 on 3 only works if his teammates are creative and quick which they aren’t outside of Russell and Gerald Green.

some interesting races going on now in the NBA

the west 2-5 spot is going to be good. the rockets, clippers, jazz and denver will flip fop from 2-5 for the rest of the season. For lebron's sake he better hope the clippers are 2 or 3 and not 4 or 5 and waiting to take him on in the second round.

the east 2-6 is also interesting although its not as tight as the western conference is, I think we can still see a lot of movement in this slot. I think philly (When healthy) is the second best team in the east and I picked them to go to the finals but they seem to be missing something from this team.

I remember people saying this about the drose bulls when they would bust LeBron Cavs ass in the regular season. We see how that shyt went came playoff time . I put zero stock in the clippers wins. That's even if they make it to the second round lol

The league misses the Warriors dominance

Ratings were falling when the Warriors were dominating too dummy

They’re down because it’s a star driven league and half the stars are hurt. That’s what they get for scheduling a million Pelicans national TV games because of Zion. Stop flattering yourself.

Or the Clippers better get a 2 seed or worry about facing Houston or Utah in the first round

You're trying to attribute the low ratings to Steph/Klay being out, but even when they were healthy AND had KD, NBA ratings were still falling. They have been falling for like the last 3 years. The Warriors, for all their dominance, could barely pull in better ratings than the Kyrie/LeBron Cavs. The PEAK of NBA ratings in the 2010s was the Miami Heat, by a meteoric landslide.

You're giving your players more credit than they deserve. Yes, having Steph, Klay and KD healthy is good for the league. After all, it's a star driven league, and the ratings concerns are overblown because the NBA shot themselves in the foot by deciding to make half their National TV games involve the Dubs or Pelicans when their stars are out.

But the notion that your Warriors alone are the reason ratings are falling is absolutely hilarious and delusional, because the ratings still fukking sucked even when your Warriors were good. In fact, I'd wager that the NBA champion being a foregone conclusion before the season even started due to your Warriors is exactly why ratings started skidding from 2017 onwards.
