On the incompleteness of Harden s system!

Why has the Harden system been proven to be a failed system countless times in the playoffs?

Harden didn't say I am the system at a press conference last year! The implication is that if you don’t ask the Clippers to trade, how can you not fight against the Harden system? You just need to wait for my pass, catch and shoot. Anyway, I can't hit other systems. I'm just used to having the ball in my hand. Finally, I have 3 pitchers on the outside, preferably 3 3D players, and I don't defend anyway. Anyway, I don’t run the position, I won’t drop empty positions, and if I don’t play against the Harden system, I will take a walk on the field.

The coach must follow mine and I will take you to win. Indeed, in the regular season with low defensive intensity, pitchers can make a shot and win. When you increase physical confrontation in the playoffs, you can't make it. Because others have played against the Harden system for a long time, the coaches dare not practice other things (or Harden would pretend to be dead on the court). The role players have no ability to handle the ball and no independent offensiveness. If the core of the Harden system cannot be played, the system will be ruined. Forgot 0 of the Peak Rockets' 27 shots? The characters have never touched the ball, have no ability to handle the ball, have no enthusiasm, and can the feel of the defense not decrease after consuming physical strength? Looking at Curry's running without the ball, he consumes the opponent's physical strength at all times and can disrupt the opponent's defensive system! Harden dribbles against men, breaks through, and covers the basket with men, as if there is no one in front of him, he won’t be able to play? To put it bluntly, it is always ready to commit fouls, and of course fouls is also a kind of ability. Can you not waste your energy by dribbling back and forth with people, break through with people, and shoot with people?

The core of Harden's system is Harden. You are not aggressive in fighting. Is there any meaning in the Harden system?

Before Harden came to the Clippers, when Kat and George took turns to get serious injuries or reimbursement, the Clippers entered the playoffs every year and even made it to the Western Conference Finals. What does it mean that the Clippers cannot enter the playoffs without Harden? If Harden doesn't come to the Clippers, the Clippers don't have to break up their previous teams, Lu is still a good coach. What is Lu being scolded now?

During the regular season last season, Lu slightly adjusted his lower lineup and his playing style. It was normal to lose a few games. That was to practice the lineup and playing style for the playoffs, and he was scolded for being scolded. Everyone said that if you keep Harden's system alive, why are you practicing blindly? Because Lu knew that Harden's system style was proven countless times in the playoffs, it was a failed system, which was useful in the regular season, but useless in the playoffs. Due to the requirements of the record, we had to change it. Because judging from the trial games, Harden really couldn't beat other systems. When Harden's system had problems in the playoffs, Lu certainly didn't know what to do! It turns out that Harden's system is a coach killer. You're so declining? This is the case with every coach I meet? If you play for a few more years with you as the core, the coach will probably change it.

It can be understood as this: Harden's poor style as a tie-up netizen is strictly speaking, Harden's system is poor, and Harden's system is not suitable for the playoffs! I was once a Harden fan, and it was him who broke his image in my mind again and again in the playoffs. I just wonder why Harden's team always has so many problems, the problem is that you have your own Harden system. Every game is the same style of play, and a fixed pattern is formed in the hearts of the character players, and nothing else will be gone. Judging from the few people on the field, they can't run and wait for the ball outside the three-point line. The Harden system is true, and the Harden system is true, the Harden system is true!

Don't be stubborn, stop making excuses, if not, it won't work. Next season, Harden is better off joining a team with a middle class to compete for the championship and be the sixth player in the team. With Harden as the core, the whole team is focusing on him to play skills and tactics. Don’t expect to win the championship, you may not be able to pass the first round!
