NBA Media Went Wild After James Harden For Flopping

James Harden may be doing a good job for the Houston Rockets, but basketball stars should never ever beg for calls. Fans have already determined the difference between him and Kobe Bryant. The Lakers legend was fine with officials, but did not collaborate with them. Harden on the other hand, got away with some offensive nonsense that irritated the fanbase.

Some said James Harden had 50 free throws in the game, and his strategy was based on running towards the ball all the time. The fun part comes when you realize that he knew what refs would do.

James Harden and his free throws

“Mike Breen said James Harden has taken 500 free throws. For a second I thought he was talking just about tonight,” Arash Markazi from the LA Times tweeted.

Harden had six free throws in overtime, but the Houston Rockets took 16 as a team. Most of the points they scored in the final bit of the game was actually a gift from refs.

“Harden back to the line for his 5th and 6th attempts of OT. He hit the 1st and missed the 2nd. Ingram got the board and got fouled by Tucker, but HOU isn’t in the bonus. 133-132 HOU with 28 seconds left,” Mike Trudell explained.

Nothing beats the fact that James Harden gets to take 15 free throws in a game. This is sort of a tradition for him, and almost every team knows it. You cannot play the Houston Rockets without having Harden get at least 15 free throws. It is just how he rolls. Let’s hope that referees will change this tactics and focus more on real scoring.

Some of the fans said Harden is actually a professional flop artist, and that’s one of the most hilarious things we saw on the Internet today.
