2013-2014 NBA Thread - IND @ WAS and OKC @ LAC on ESPN

Harden aint mature enough yet.. Hes only 24 years old and not even in his prime.

Harden can play D when he wants to its all about effort with him..

The day he decides to put it all out there is the day his game and this team will take the next step

I don't think he has the effort to mature though.  He just scores, but he doesn't have it enough to want to lock down guys.  

 

[bravelude]

I'm not going out on a limb here, but Brian Shaw was right, Paul George is the best 2 way player right now. His defensive effort does not get as much praise as it deserves.

Nah, PG needs more effort on DEFENSE.  He proally woke up when he let LBJ waltz pass him.  Son needs to hit the weight room.

I don't understand what you are trying to say.

Paul George is an excellent defender though.

I'm talking about the playoffs when he couldn't hold LBJ and LBJ just blitzed passed them to advance and thus win the 2nd RING.

I think PG's offensive game needs more work than his defense. He still has room to improve on offense.

Agreed.

Mad simplistic approach to watching basketball, but okay.

So you are basically saying that since Indiana lost to Miami in 7, Paul George is a bad defender?

 

[herbshuttles15]

Best perimeter defender in the NBA but his offense is overrated

 

[kb8 3qwick]

Plus most of the time he's guarding the other team's best wings. He doesn't take it light on defense. That may be a reason why his offense suffers a bit.

Klay Thompson :x

Why PG wait so long to take that shot that now GS gets the ball with no shot clock? that was dumb.

Saying it woke him up.  Just like how TIMMY will forever be haunted.  Stuff like that shakes you up.

 

[angliatzj]

PG gets it done on both ends. sure his offense is overrated, but guarding the other team's best player and having to create on the other end gets tiring. something has to slip.

 

[dt43]

The clock pretty much never starts on time in these "last second" attempts.. it's like your HS football coach timing your 40 with a stopwatch and his fat fingers

Disrespectful

 

[tyonenine]

Pacers lost

What?

Why do you capitalize random words...

So:

-Paul George is a bad defender because Miami beat Indiana in 7 games one year

-Tim Duncan is forever haunted by losing the finals because it was to someone he has 2 more championships than.

Got it.

 

[durantula]

These wade flops are getting out of hand

The return of D whistle smh

 

[rosegoldsluggs]

That Great Harden post defense

hes saying it motivated him to do work... that fear of it happening again. motivation for the offseason.
