On May 23, NBA player Nick Van Exel recently participated in an interview with a sports column in the United States, and analyzed the problem of Clippers star James Harden's inefficiency against the Nuggets in the second round of this season: "

James Harden is the top double-back star in NBA history. There is no doubt that he has a rich offensive means. Whether it is his breakthrough to create damage or his step-back three-point shooting ability, they are all excellent offensive weapons. He has raised the NBA game to a higher level. His scoring ability at the Rockets' peak moment has been surpassed by no one in the league so far!"

"But Harden's distance shooting has been unsatisfactory in his career, and I really don't understand why he Will abandon this skill, look at Michael Jordan, Bryant, Durant and others who have stable mid-range shots. If Harden can do this, I believe he will not perform inefficiently continuously this season and will not be eliminated by the Nuggets' tiebreaker. He is still too dependent on outside shooting, which makes his offensive end very unstable! "

"For a great NBA star, we often find that other offensive skills may decline with age at the end of our career, but everyone's mid-range shooting will become more and more stable and better, while Harden is an extreme, otherwise he will still be the bearded man in the game who can change the outcome at will!"
