    Man, seeing all of these in one compilation really highlights a key point that has been ignored in post-game analysis.

    The rallying cry from the Mavs side of the ball is that Kidd really messed up not having Lively or Gafford in there which would have taken away Hardenā€™s float game (quick aside – Kleber was a big part of the Mavs 4th quarter defense in G2, and had the highest +/- on the team in 27 minutes. He earned some runway and trust that is being ignored in a vacuum. But I digress.)

    How is that true rewatching these? The third one is the only one that clearly would have been played better by an athletic 7-footer, and even then, Harden is likely finding Zu as a counter to the center contest.

    In any event, itā€™s a great series and that was an incredible close by La Barba Magnifica.

    Howā€™s he getting by DPOY Luka Doncic so easily??! Doesnā€™t make sense.

  3. Love that Harden watched the tape against the Mavericks, trained for the adjustment and did it in game when it mattered.

    Love this dude.

  4. Man such good execution from him in the clutch moments. He looks so comfortable blowing past his defender for the short middy or floater

    TBH u only need 2 iso scorers at a time 3 of them don’t work unless one is pure off ball or a great off ball cutter.

    He could deadass do this ALL GAME and they’ll have no choice but to double him eventually. I’ve been saying it before the series even started: There is NO ONE on the mavs roster who can contain a healthy kawhi, pg, or harden.

  7. Mavs needed to META World Peace his ass after the first couple of these. Damn Kidd.

    Conflicted because I always love me some modest mouse, but I think this is our song when we lose at home lol. But Iā€™m digging this. Still canā€™t believe how calming and reassuring Harden taking the ball up the court and hitting *all those floaters were.
