Recently, "Truth" Pierce was invited to be a guest on Arenas' show, and he was asked what advice he would give Harden. Pierce directly shelled Harden, joining forces with a number of Hall of Fame teammates but still has no title.
First, Pierce threw out the theory of respect. He thinks Harden respects Old Rivers but doesn't respect Nash. Because the elder Rivers will do everything he can to get Harden into the circle, and Embiid is still the strongest man in the league.
Second, Harden has partnered with Paul, Westbrook, Durant, Howard, and Irving, all of whom are Hall of Fame-level, but neither pair has worked. Pierce asserted that if I had the same teammates that Harden had had in my career, I would probably have won 5 championships.
Arenas completely sang the decline of the Diden group, he said that Harden is not willing to sacrifice part of the ball, always want to take the ball at the top of the arc and the opposite side of the head, but Embiid and Harden are very similar in this regard, one likes to do shooting fake action, one loves dribbling, so the ending of the two will not be too good.
Finally, Pierce concluded that Harden is always sweet when he first arrives in a new environment, and when he loses later, they will say that he is still in the adaptation period, and if he has not improved next year, you may see Harden run to another place. Famous A-Smith also came to make up for the knife: "Harden does not pay attention to the game, the fiasco nets also go to the party, Philadelphia is not Houston, the patience of the fans is limited." ”
