December was undoubtedly the highlight of the season for the Los Angeles Clippers. They have won 11 of their last 14 games and sit fourth in the West Conference with a 19-12 record. And all this is inseparable from the outstanding performance of Harden, a new member of the team.
After joining the Clippers, Harden quickly settled into the team, averaging 34 per gameIn 1 minute, he was able to score 177 points 48 rebounds and 7With 9 assists, the three-point shooting rate is as high as 423%, a career high. His outstanding performance undoubtedly provided a strong impetus for the rise of the Clippers.
However, what is surprising is that Harden failed to make the list among the top 10 active point guards selected by Swishtrend in the United States. On the contrary, players like Maxi are on the list. Such a selection result has undoubtedly caused widespread controversy.
First, let's take a look at Doncic and Alexander, who are in first and second place. Doncic averages 37 per game1 minute, 339 points 84 rebounds 93 assists and a shooting percentage of 489% and 38 percent from three-point range4%, both in scoring and three-point shooting, which are career highs. And Alexander averaged 34 per game7 minutes, 312 points 57 rebounds and 63 assists and a shooting percentage of 546%, 31 three-point shooting7%, he led the Thunder to second place in the West, and his playmaking and perimeter defense were excellent. The performance of these two players really deserves their ranking.
However, with a player like Haliburton, he has been just as good. He's been on a rampage this season and has been number one in the league in assists. However, he was ranked seventh, not even as good as Fox and Lillard. Such a ranking is really incomprehensible.
Overall, Harden's performance is undoubtedly at the level of the league's top PG, and his all-round stats and excellent three-point shooting percentage are testaments to his quality. And a player like Haliburton, who has been just as good and shouldn't be overlooked. I hope that the future selection can be more fair, so that every outstanding player can get the recognition he deserves.
