NBA – James Harden gets honest after mercilessly mocking Wembanyama: “You see… (video)

NBA James Harden et Victor Wembanyama

Opposed to Victor Wembanyama’s Spurs this night, James Harden put on a show, notably by breaking the ankles of the French prodigy.

But The Beard did not dwell more than that on this viral sequence, preferring to provide a major clarification to the journalists. It’s hard to prove him wrong.

Obviously, everyone remembered his brilliant move against Victor Wembanyama.

But James Harden was not only content to briefly ridicule the Frenchman, he delivered a real recital against San Antonio.

Certainly clumsy in shooting (4/13), he nevertheless excelled as a conductor throughout the meeting, allowing himself to deliver some sublime caviars for Daniel Theis or Kawhi Leonard:

James Harden delighted with his progress with the Clippers

Visibly more comfortable now, partly also thanks to the change in role of Russell Westbrook who became the new sixth man for the Californians, Harden is finally getting back to putting on a show.

Overwhelmed by criticism for months, especially because of his attitude, the former OKC player is gradually starting to silence detractors again. Questioned by the media after the meeting, he was frank:

The more reps, the more comfortable you get and the more you understand where the guys’ spots are and where mine are, and where I can attack. Over the course of the matches, you see that we are more comfortable.

Difficult to contradict The Beard on this, especially since it is even more complicated to achieve in the case of Sailboats. Even if Westbrook now comes off the bench, there are three superstars left in the major five and sharing the weight is therefore not easy.

However, everything seems to be gradually returning to order in Los Angeles and this will delight Paul George, happy to be able to score victories with the 2018 MVP:

We now expect to win when we start a match. I think we have passed this stage where we were looking for ourselves, where we were looking for how to play, and we found success in what we are.

Patience is rarely required in the City of Angels, whether with the Lakers or the Clippers. but it is necessary in the case of the latter, who have just welcomed James Harden. Once the mayonnaise has taken hold between him and his new team, it could do big damage.
