i didnt think stern would send his minions to do work this early in the series, i guess he senses how much better one team is than the other.

Because James Harden is everything wrong with basketball, in one person.

He's like Gilbert Arenas and DeShawn Stevenson all in one player, with a touch of Kevin Garnett. I cannot stand him. He's the primary reason I want OKC to lose.

I haven't watched much basketball in a long time. I thought what "metta world peace" did to him was pretty bad. After seeing harden play a few times, I can def say Harden was asking for it. He acts like such a tough guy but dropped like a baby.

Calling all Westbrook haters.

Nice play on the fast break and nice dish on the Durant 3. Not to mention his defense.

He reminds me of guys I used to play against who were the most annoying.

Stupid hair, marginal skill-set but puts up big numbers off the bench against bench players, bad attitude...the kind of guy to deliberately bump into you "on accident" on the court (Ron Artest elbow).

He's just a punk. He'll probably take big money to play elsewhere and aside from posting gaudy stats, never be heard from again.

He also talks a load of **** when he's on the floor - you can just see him, all he does is run his mouth. Game 1 he hit that 3 pointer at the end of the 1st quarter when the Thunder were down 16 and flexed for the crowd. Seriously? Check the scoreboard.

Can't stand him.

Other guys of his ilk are some I named: Kevin Garnett, DeShawn Stevenson, Ron Artest is another.

Players like Ginobili are what's wrong with the NBA.

Yup, that's everything I saw from watching him play recently. Funny thing is that most guys like that usually drop the quickest. He's like cortlandt finnegan and look what Andre Johnson did to him :D

Yep. He's a notorious flopper too. Tough guy, flexing, bumping into guys, giving guys the shoulder, until you breathe on him and then he's laying down holding his face.

There are a handful of guys that dive a lot more than others. The king of flops/dives are Harden, Wade, and Pierce.

But nobody will ever usurp the throne from Vlade Divac.
