Harden barely won with 40 points, and the Clippers won with 50 points. The number of 50+ points tied Kobe for third in history.

I saw Deng Ge come down to earth early in the morning, and I couldn't help but sigh that although the veteran is old, he still has great ambitions. Harden was not bad in the regular season. When he first went to the Clippers, he thought he was here to retire, but in the end he became the captain and led the team into the playoffs, respect.

For Harden, teammates can attack poorly, but they must be able to open up space. The Clippers starter Dunn missed a basket, Zubac missed a basket, Collins, who was in the starting lineup, missed a basket, and the remaining rookie was half-assed. The Hornets could attack Harden from the outside unscrupulously, and it was useless to pass the ball to the outside. This was the explosion.

It’s the same situation as back then. If you can’t score 30 points, you can score 40 points. If you can’t score 40 points, you can score 50 points. What you should pray now is that Harden won’t get injured. The season has just begun and looks like it’s burned out.

Harden's explosive scoring ability is something that other current players do not have. If he had not left the Rockets, his 60+/50+ times would have ranked third in history. Durant's four scoring champions are nothing, and Harden's five are just nonsense.

The only one in history! Harden became the first player in history to hold two teams' individual single-game scoring records. To be honest, there are two guarantees. If the criterion for MVP is the record of Westbrook, the one belongs to Harden. If the criterion for judging is the number of letters, the one belongs to Harden!

Suddenly I feel that if I hadn’t been struggling outside for five years for the championship, it would be wonderful to be healthy and happy with the Rockets for three to five years starting in 2020. It has been difficult for Deng since he left the Rockets. The other two players in the Nets have suffered many injuries, so he has to carry the team. Going to the 76ers for a salary cut didn't help, and the game was unpleasant. When you go to the Clippers to sit on the bench, you still have to carry the team. The key is that these teams have no hope of winning the championship.

In fact, I suddenly understand what Brother Deng is thinking now. He is also older and focuses on family. It's an honor to be able to compete in my hometown. And the baby was just born. Mothers also need to be accompanied by themselves. As Brother Deng said, he is actually considered a successful player in the NBA. His strength is obvious to all. A championship requires a team. Some players really don't need a championship to prove anything.

Against the Hornets, this team actually required Harden to score 50+ to win. There are still a lot of problems. I am not so pessimistic today. After all, they won. And looking at the news, he is coming back. I hope everything will be fine. In one sentence: Harden is awesome.

Objectively speaking, Harden will still suffer when playing against strong teams. It is not a matter of ability. His physical strength and the defensive resource allocation of strong teams do not support Harden's rocket performance. The reason why Harden can perform like this today is also because the overall strength of the team is not good. Ball, who can see a little, is not a player who loves basketball. The reason why he plays basketball like Iverson is because he can make money, so such a player is willing to stay in a bad team to collect statistics. Since he has the ability, he should study more, and he can earn more later.

Harden should change his position. This season has been excellent so far. When playing point guard, he always thinks about passing the ball, but opponents can always see through his intentions. Opponents with good touch like today have to double-team, but Harden's ball-playing ability is good enough to get out. When Jones Jr. and Bogdan return, the space outside the opponent's double-team will be better than now. Harden can play by himself without double-teaming.

In the past, there was no strong end point in the team, but now at least there is Kawhi. When the point guard passes the ball, he feels that his teammates have no touch at critical moments in the playoffs.

Harden is also forced now. He is not the kind of player who plays with the ball. Moreover, except for Harden, including Kawhi, this team's starters are basically in the finishing position, so Harden has to sort out the running-in.
