I really miss him leading a team although he's a great point guard and has elite passing skills, he is one of the most entertaining to watch score and lead an offence.

[@jarikhicks4801]

Me too. I wish he did shoot more mid-range. Than he will do much better in playoff. If he do that, I feel like he would be one of greatest players and might win him a ring. Because he don't shoot that mid-range and that caused him to go championships. In game 7 against the warriors. He got klay Thompson in foul trouble. But he didn't attack klay. He just want to shoot step-back threes. I lost little bit respect from harden because he didn't attack klay. Klay had 3 fouls in 1st quarter.

It’s not a mid range game plus why shoot a mid range when you can just drive and get a lay.
