James Harden’s ISO GAME Broken Down to a SCIENCE 

This channel is goated!

I fear not the man who has practised 1000 kicks but the man who has practised 1 kick 1000 times.

James Harden is one of those players that will leave his fingerprint on the nba.

Lol at 2:15 Harden is like “if you move your feet, you’re screwed. If you don’t move your feet you’re f&@$%#”

that shin angle breakdown crowned u as the best basketball reading channel on RU-vid

Attention to Detail How to Read a Defender pls

I love his playing style

James Harden is just unguardable 🔥🔥🔥

Fear the fucking Beard... And Hardens newly awakened Rennigan

Probably one of the best Playmakers i've seen in a while. His ability to score from deep, a pull up from midrange or finishing around the rim makes him so hard to predict, but then his court vision makes it so that you're not able to double team him. I think you were spot on in terms of dialing in the details of what makes his ISO game so tough to defend! you don't have to like what Harden is doing ( I don't love HOW he plays) but i'm impressed with what he can do offensively.

What's great about his technique is that it's 100% usable, no flashy moves, just pure effectiveness

Could u make a vid on Kawhi and how he’s ballin in the playoffs?

I am just too fond of how Harden blows by his defender every time, and I always think over the way he makes his man get crossed so easy. Just appreciate your video; it is much beneficial to me.

I'm so happy to have him here in Brooklyn!!

Damn is like one of the most helpful things ever 🤣 im a iso player and i study his game for how in depth u put this im prob bout to average 6 7 more points

He attacks opponents feet, can’t stand him but he’s effective.. Btw I dig the tracks you lay on the videos

Harden's package is amazing to have, regardless of your athleticism! 10/10 recommend for your bag

I knew this when I saw him play and now am using it😁 it work everytime for me

That quote at the beginning is universal, and that's coming from a fighter. But in a fighters sense it's the hips and feet.

Harden > Kyrie no question bra

Love me some James harden but I peep the vintage Cole world beat in the back 🔥🔥🔥

there is no stopping him

This nigga is UNGUARDABLE, one of my favorite players to watch in the game right now 💯

Any players out there, I got a question for ya( if you played ball at some type of organized level) Did or do y’all play off instinct or predetermined moves? I myself was a point guard my entire career, and I have to say that I wish I consistently trusted in myself and hours of work outside of practice I put in to my creation/handles game. On my aau team, where I just felt less pressure, had a coach who just handed me the ball and said go, I played almost entirely free flowing and off of in the second reactions. On my varsity squad, my coach was so old and rigid and close minded that I felt so much pressure to be ridiculously efficient and perfect that I believe I actually held myself back by thinking to much prior to each possession/isolation and went into too many plays with a predetermined move. I still played free in some ways, such as when it came to what pass I would throw, but when sizing up my man I already knew what I was going to use on him rather than taking what the D gave me based on his stance and reactions to my pre-move movements. I practiced my moves so much and made sure they were so quick that it still allowed me to beat my man 80 percent of the time, but I’m just so positive that everything about my game and how I benefitted my team would have been better if I just let go and played free. Because it’s not as if I didn’t make mistakes when I played all pre-determined. Yes, I played that way in fear of making errors, but the actual number of errors I made plating free vs rigid was the same, the main differnce is that i was impossible to stay in front of when I just let my entire package free, and when I played rigid I would eventually be easier to guard as the game went on once my opponent started to realize I wasn’t going to counter, so if he guessed right he would stay in front. I know “no one cares” but I think this is really interesting stuff and I would love for anyone to share their experiences as well! I’m fascinated by hearing about any ballers mentality on playing the game, you know? What goes on in our MINDS behind the moves and way we play on the court.

Pretty much unguardable

great video... love the breakdown

thanks so much for da vid now i can play like james harden better den ever

About time....amazed how little videos there are breaking down his between the legs combos

Would you please analyze Larry Legend in the future?

Does James Harden actually know if he's doing that by the way you explain the video because I feel like nba players are really that conscious when they play, I can't see how you can subconscious reading your defender like that O_o that's amazing, I do it sometimes as well, but one thing I got from this video how James Harden moves his body a lot like you said in different directions with a change of speed. Due to that, his handles being smooth and moving his body nonstop you don't know where he's going to to, same thing with other nba players. Do you think you can Damian Lillard's ISO Game lmao?

What an indepth analysis man wow nice 🙏👌👍

Thank you for this really helped my bad mood by studying something

what is the instrumental on this???!!! I heard it in your shooting program as well, I love it

This Channel has always been my favourite but I missed the reading

He could go left, right, backward, also upward with floaters or lob pass

I need these for 1v1 play or in games

GREAT VIDEO BROSKI

Curry left the conversation...😂😂😂

Attention to detail how to read a defender plzz😭

I’m impressed. Most basketball breakdowns are trash and people who can’t hoop or don’t know what they talking about. This was good though

Can you do this for Kobe, Jordan, Tmac, Iverson etc

What if the defender isn’t playing you to any direction. Playing Straight up?

I love this video, very informative

The beat is Called liquid sun by dekonstructionists it’s the last song on the forever July album

Keep with the great video!!!

Most underappreciated player in the world

Great vid bro

Can we get an updated version of this video 😏 showing his Brooklyn and Philly progression

Been waiting for this video for a LONG TIME!! thanks man

could u make a video: how to maintain stamina throughout the game consistently. or type of attack in transition, and which are the best at certain situation

100x more helpful than some black and white video of him dribbling in practice mixed with shitty trap music

This video is approved

Should’ve used more clips of him on good defenders he was blowing by satornasky and jo ingles and centers 😂😂

If Harden were the standard PG size ut wouldn't work. The defender has to respect Hardens weight and height - not to mention his 1st step. I actually don't think you went as in depth as you could have

James harden is the type of guy to read the terms and conditions of the nba to learn the rules

Very interesting, thank you sir.

Could u do a kyrie attention to detail on what he does on offense?

You should breakdown CJ McCullom

I wonder if pro's like Harden are actually fully aware of these things you point out in the video or if they just do it subconsciously

Idc what anyone says, kyrie might be the flashiest, but imo harden is hands down the best ball handler in the league

Do a Olajuwon post scoring breakdown plz 🙏🏿🙏🏿

Almost has a streetball influence to it even tho it's simple moves

Ayo i go lie this is valid

This is the best breakdown I've seen. Awesome

Great video

The narrator sounds like Klay Thompson

whats the music pls

Could you guys to how Jimmy Butler has been dominating in the Playoffs?

Harden...the crafted player in the league

I love watching your videos!! And i learn alot When i got the ball and i keep moving and dont stop the defense wont have time to read or setup??

This video didnt explain most his dribbling methods which I'm glad

Legendary

Skill wise he's the greatest of all time no debate

very good vid

DKST - Liquid sun

I like your videos man! Keep it up and God bless you

Harden is such a unique creative scorer ive never seen his moves before

Where do y’all rank Harden in terms of top players?! 🔬

He should change his nosebleed celebration eye check or i cant see

Could you plz mirror all your videos?? I’m trying to mimic James hardens iso game but I’m right handed and it’s confusing to mentally switch everything while watching.

I feel this video. I play against the same dude 1v1 all the time. I somehow ended up researching harden. Thanks for breaking it down, should help me develop

Best channel on RU-vid about all things hoop I’ve said it before I’ll continue to say it!!! From the first videos ever produced to now....GOLD

What’s the name of this music?

The only one that's stops harden is harden. His iq in the playoffs is highly questionable. Way too many stepback 3's when he can easily get to the hoop.

Great great video！Does anyone know where I can find these close camera angles？I'm trying to learn those moves with them.

Harden is a Basketball genius, his haters don't know there's an art in his movement.

His isolation highlights are on my page‼️‼️ 🔥

The secret is how low he gets gets during the set up and then the blow by. His off hand arm is also swiping those mits.

His moves are definitely simple and incredibly effective

Awesome

🐐

Now he just needs to win, which he can’t do playing only isolation basketball with russell Westbrook. James harden will never win in his prime

I generally don’t feel like harden is thinking of all this while he’s dribbling lmao. Mans is just hooping

Its over 4 yall

Beat?

Thank you!

🔥🔥

I am your subscriber. Can you do a video about James harden's shooting form or action or mechanics

Song?

This is exactly why i hate the "analysis" from these mainstream pundits..."harden just dribbles the air out the ball"...he is about to be a problem in Brooklyn with kd
