If you're going to plant a flag Quest, I wouldn't suggest it be one defending Harden's WWE-like maneuvers when he's defended.
Flopping isnt embellishing(showing) an actual foul)
everybody says it but it doesnt make it true. Called s false narrative. Easy to dismiss and go along with it. Id actually trust my opinion on what james harden does. I watch every game. I know james harden. His little youtube compilations are from years ago. He doesnt do that stuff anymore. The nba as a whole doesnt see it as much anymore
anyway. Flopping is making up contact that doesnt exist. The “everyone agrees” argument isnt going to fly because your false narrative comes from people who dislike james harden. Same crap as his defense. Harden is a solid on ball defender. Number 1 rated post defender. Finally this year people who know a little start talking about it. That dumb video of defense from 6 years ago compilatipn tarnished his entire defensive legacy. At the same time people said lebron waa good defrnder but was net rated worse. Everyone takes some plays off especially when you run the whole offense for 38 minutes a game. You could make the same video of any “good” defender narrative.
