Prime James Harden plays but they get increasingly more ridiculous 

Harden is a pure loser period he will never win a championship

he played so well against the warriors if it wasn’t for the super duper mega team he would have easily made the finals a couple times

@@Hicko also if his team wasn't injured, he would have 2 rings.

CP3, hamstring, game 6 & 7... 27 missed 3's game 7... Lost by 12... Still haunts me.

@@TheSpadre it mattered maaaan

@@Hicko he joined a better super team and lost lol

yea it was crazy !

Tbh, best Rockets season was 17-18, first season with CP3 and legitimate chance to go to the finals.

@@doesnotreallymatterr sadly they choked

@@Dog-uz9hr Because leadership and vision of CP3 was lacking, if only he never got injured.

@@Dog-uz9hr refs sold that game

Unfortunately we had to face the greatest NBA team ever assembled just to reach the finals.

Houston would have won in 2018 if Cp3 wasnt injured

@@ahhh7878 2019 without KD and yet here we go again with "If Harden just took a breakfast we wouldve won"

@@lapirazo6461 THe 2019 team was drastically different than the 2018. New owner, less versatile wings, cp3 looked washed that season after his hamstring injury

The hump was arguably the greatest team in NBA history. And he contended with those dudes, it’s a great story to me with not a perfect ending

facts he just Yams them down every now and then

Quality over quantity

It is just mostly one handed dunks off one feet tho, not much variation

Reaching with that comment

​@@Trenacetate43 he dunks so rarely it doesn't matter. the one he does is nasty as fuck when he decides to go for it

That jumpshot was so pure

As a rockets fan, KD, Steph and Klay collectively made me scream at my TV. Mfs just hitting everything sometimes😅

At least now you know how everyone else feels just watching 3s get chucked over their heads

Watching him almost single handedly beat one of the best teams ever assembled was something else. As a neutral, ("kinda" warriors fan, live in the bay area) it was pretty spectacular.

@@MrJeChou and they would have won in 2018 too if the team decided not to jack up threes in game 7.

@@trippinatormachine it was mainly Ariza, bruh went 0-12 on wide open shots.....that's damn near half the misses by himself....

As a wise man once said: "ball don't lie."

No cap 💯

thank you man. his biggest i’m him moment. watched that game live and it was so scripted against the rockets. even way before that out of bounce call in OT. i think someone even made a video about that game and it got millions of views

@@lu502k KD saved the ball while he's obviously out of bounds. 😆 Then Curry made a jumper that's why they had the lead. Then Harden to the rescue. 🚀

The goat

James harden is the reason y’all didn’t win anything lmao 😂

@@youtubeshypocrisy nah golden state’s dynasty was harden was a monster fr

@@hitmanhitman768 I remember it was James harden missing 20 3s in a row in game 7 🤣🤣🤣

@@youtubeshypocrisy not him the team collectively. Shit was brutal

@@thesnipingspider3852 pshhhhhh harden took the most shots! Everyone else was just following his lead lol

I agree. harden and lebron both just were unlucky to have had to play against the most stacked bullshit team of all time

I think harden is the most unappreciated player of all time possibly, and I say that after multiple years of him being my least favorite player due to his on court antics and his inconsistency, as well as some rivalry feeling games against my celtics.

@@jakeboynton ya he is. Hopefully Sixers gets it together cuz he looks good this year.

@Hicko that’s just nonsense. It was a 2-2 series with a half to play Houston up one and KD hurt…he had cp3 and still lost the game and then game 6? 2015? Spurs with no Kawhi? Come on now. Loved the highlights tho he’s a top 10 2 guard ever

@@adamfeliciano6321 top 4*

AI better 💀

@Mo a what's your top 5 shooting guards of all time

@Mo a West not a SG Wade locked in at 3

@Mo a He's mainly played PG tho

@Mo aHe's basically a combo guard he played more PG imo bc he only played SG for 2 years tho

Facts

@@Letthat forreal

Dude is overrated garbage. He travels and gets most of his points from free throws

He's definitely the most talented offensive player I've ever seen

yep 100%

Top 1 scorer of all time. In his prime he leads the league in points, assists, appearances and is 2nd in 3pts made.

Don't forget he's one of the worst defenders of all time, too.

@@sliqvic don’t forget he’s top 4 all time to ever play his position

@@jjack3186 the SG/PG position? Hell no.

Lol they were going at it 😂

He’s a shooting guard

nobody had an answer cuz literally half his points came at the foul line. all he did was run into people, snap his head back, act hurt, stick his arms straight out in front of him to draw fouls. sure he made some baskets but he is forever tainted by what a clown he was when trying to draw fouls. only people who like the guy are houston fans everyone else thought he was an idiot.

@@thanx01 u can't deny he is one of the best player, but the way he got the foul was too ugly, and it makes the nba so bad to watch compare to the game 15 years ago

Unstoppable because he travels and carries

Nah, before Iverson's crossover, what do you guys say about plaming in basketball? This guy really innovated this game with his step back. I don't know why you all don't appreciate this guy when his prime at an average of 36 points per game, that's ridiculous. Even without his free throws he still could have won the scoring title back in 2018. Maybe y'all just jealous because you can't make what this man made in the past. Can you list any teams that could even compete with the GSW back in 2018 except James Harden and his Rockets? None. Also, you guys are double standards on his moves with other players. Why don't you judge on Giannis's layups with almost travel every game, Lebron also does it every game. Trae Young and Tatum etc. @@marks5625

“Nearly” isn’t good enough. He flat out choked in that 2018 wcf gm7

@@holdmyweight3597bro the whole team missen 27 3s in a row . The team lost by 9 or something . If they just hit some of them they going for the chip

facts! james harden used to be my favourite player to use on 2k id just call iso with him everytime it was so fun

2018 rockets team was better

same that was crazy

And pissed me off right after when Russ threw that game...

@@MajiMagic Russ has become a dumpster fire, starting with his time in Houston. It is sad to watch.

@@TheSpadre but Russ is the second or third highest paid player in the league somehow more than bron. A dude that trash shouldn’t be getting paid 47 million

@@MajiMagic but Russ made up that next game against dropping them 41

Hardens playmaking thrived under Mike tho, he became the insane playmaker and passer when Dantoni got there, he became a pick and roll god

Lies.

Cap how was he more intimidating but never beat them and Bron did make it make sense and I'm a harden and Bron fan let's be honest here

@@YSL_OSO because after 2016 him and his team were better? Makes perfect sense lol. 3 years in a row that was the best team that the warriors had to play in the playoffs. Cant tell if you 2 are just casuals or stupid.

Cuz Kyrie would hit the daggers not bron

@@YSL_OSO he beat them multiple times literally by himself

*illegal

His legs bro 😢

Thank you !!

you mean the most over rated. you guys forget that mostly what he did was run into people to draw fouls

@@thanx01 if that's how you remember it I guess.

No they won’t. Every great player gets a ton of hate, then retires and everyone loves them.

I’d say he’s got an argument for 3rd, things would be much different if the broken ass warriors team from top to bottom wasn’t around and weren’t favored by the refs with all of their god damn illegal screens and dirty play

@@ben8407 no joke, in my personal opinion, I would have him at 3rd but didn’t want the Wade crowd to hang up on me in a Harden appreciation post lol Harden just the better all around player with the better prime

@@mildchaos6037 dwade is right up there bc his defense was amazing but people forget how dirty of a player he was and he was nowhere near the scorer james was lol also facilitator

@@ben8407 defense and the chips are the difference but they never played a team of GSW caliber. Harden is the better shooter, passer, scorer, ball handler and rebounder. Also I think Harden had a couple down seasons of bad defense but he is criminally underrated on that side of the floor. Not on Wades level though

Man he really did too lmao. He finished put the season on 2 other teams that year and that was it for him.

you dont have a clue what you are talking about lmao, this is utter nonsense and barely coherent to begin with, get off the crack pipe kid

@@extinguishidiots9965 watch the video, Harden hits the game winner

Yep, 2016-2019 were great years

He was beyond elite 1v1 but that play style was never winning a championship.

I mean they did come close in 2018
