Stephen A. Smith Says James Harden Is Done: “The James Harden We Saw In Houston Is No More”

 

Ever since leaving the Houston Rockets, James Harden hasn’t looked the same. While he’s still producing impressive numbers, they’re nowhere near the stats he put out during his time with the Rockets.

Yesterday’s Game 4 in Toronto was no different for the guard. Harden only made 5 of his 17 shots en route to 22 points.

After the game, Stephen A. Smith went at Harden an said he looks done. Smith continued by saying that the James Harden we saw in Houston wasn’t no more:

 

“James Harden looks done! And I don’t need Jalen Rose’s glasses to tell me that. Let’s just get it out of the way right now. What I mean by ‘done,’ he’s not a scrub. He can still play. He can average over 20 and 8 for you. That’s not what I mean when I say he’s done. I’m talking about the James Harden that we saw in Houston, that brother is no more. He’s not getting the level of separation he once was, he’s not getting loose and evasive from defenders because he just doesn’t have the quickness. He hasn’t been the same since that hamstring injury… as a result, that puts even more onus on Joel Embiid.”
