The series against the Celtics is the emblem of the career of a talented but incomplete player. And that he has to take into account both the crooked moons and the coexistence with the Mvp of the League…
A good, very good indeed. Bad, very bad indeed. Harden’s playoffs proceed with a surreal trend: the glories of game-1, dominated against Boston, 45 points including the triple of the victory in the sprint, was followed by an indecent game-2, well beyond 2/14 shooting, he was not never a basket… But it’s the attitude that strikes, even more. The “all in” champion who in the first game of the series with the Celtics seemed to have a clear sense of urgency forced by the contingency, is turning 34 and still chasing his first NBA title, has suddenly disappeared.
