    This is a great breakdown as usual and I have to say that I've gained some level of respect for Harden, but I think most fans of any sport will agree that exploiting a game's rulebook does not make the game better for the spectator.
    Maybe that's too general but what I mean is that I don't know how anybody can watch that arm hook move and not get pissed off. If you're strategy for offense is to try to create fouls out of thin air then the only thing that you are showing people is that there are loopholes that need to be closed. There is such a thing as the spirit of the game, after all.
    Harden is like that guy in pickup games that challenges absolutely everything the other team does, because they care more about winning than actually playing the game.

  • @OslerWannabe
    @OslerWannabe Před rokem +36

    Another thing to consider -- Harden's ability to get 16 points per game from isolation speaks to his INTENT to do so. In other words, few other players have the balls to be that selfish, and flaunt it. Once he enters into an iso situation, he sticks with it, wearing his defender down, while the rest of his team kicks back and watches him work. I think that Harden's brilliance at iso scoring has the unintended effect of diminishing his teammates' interest and involvement in the game. And what evidence can I offer? The number of NBA titles he has. What you're missing here is the fact that most everyone besides Harden is playing Basketball, the TEAM game. He is playing Isoball, AKA Heroball. Others, including Ja Morant, Russell Westbrook and Kyrie Irving are Isoball wizards with no titles. It's not a team-friendly style of play, which is why he has never, and will never win the league. Which is fine by me.

      Everyone in the league does the arm grab at this point it’s a near necessity to consistently get points. Harden was not the first person to use the arm bar either. Harden is not the only person to use a head fake to get a foul either, not even 2 hours ago from when i commented this Kyle Lowry did the same head fake and didn’t get a call and passed outside. It’s a common move to get fouls, but now because harden does it it’s annoyingly a breaking the rules and deserves a fine.

      @Jordan Williams Bruh the NBA is making money one way or another. Houston is getting ticket sales one way or another. Harden is so expert with his gather it pisses me off. But it's helped me play in iso situations when others trust me to make a play. With the three step layup the 1st step (zero step) is named as such because at that point you can still dribble and make a play with the ball. Only once you pick it up with both hands is it a dead ball, meaning you have two steps afterwards.

    My beef has never been with Harden. I think he’s smart and incredibly crafty for manipulating the rules to his benefit. My beef is with the NBA for allowing and changing the rules to encourage it.

      @Jordan Williams Exactly, this is what pisses me off. Yes, all the stuff Jimmy said in the video was true, but he didn't mention the excessive flopping and bitching that Harden does to get to the line. I definitely agree that he bends the rules to get to where he is now, and Jimmy did a good job spinning that in a positive light, but it's pretty easy to spin it in a negative way too.

      @@absvd6114 Flopping ain't greatness my guy. If Harden didn't flop (even outside of the arm hook which shouldn't be legal, why would they reward players who were trying to get fouled), he wouldn't be looked at as "great" because he wouldn't score nearly as much as he does from getting to the line.

      Exactly. Hardeen is indeed a genious scorer. With that said Jimmy & the other CZcamsrs defending it should wait some more years to fairly pass judgement on he's play style. To see if it's effective.

    10:20 Goaltending was illegal before Mikan. But they did widen the lane from the key-hole shape because of him.
    The Chamberlain dunk-from-the-foul line may be a myth but, again, they widened the lane because of him. And they made a rule penalizing off-ball fouls. And a revision, or maybe an invention. of the rule against offensive goaltending. And... I think there were others.
    And for Alcindor (Abdul Jabbar) the college game outlawed dunking...

      Not sure anything in there wasnt already known. Much of his moves are based on phenomenal ballhandling strength footwork etc. But pretending like he doesnt routinely break the rules when he takes a 6th or 7th step is silly and at least for myself that has always been the annoyance. Not the stuff that's legal now that wasnt 30 years ago but the stuff that is clearly illegal even by today's rulebook but just gets let go anyway cause it results in buckets.
