James harden grew up studying to be a referee but just got good at shooting
Straight violation😂
@Adrian no lol
Yes
Who gave u all this humor

I used the James Harden double step back in one of my Jr. NBA games and the refs didn't call anything but all the players and parents were yelling their asses off at the refs.
@Michael Jordan hi
@Michael Jordan I don't play basketball but it is fun to watch all the leaping, running, shouting,etc. is so entertaining. I only play Volleyball but I'm not really good at it I'm just an average human being
😂 you the goat
They don’t know basketball sad
@@bigdoge6602 it's because my Dad is Japanese and support me only with money, means I and him do not have a dad and son time which is important to a family and my mom is a Filipina and always supports me and she's an overprotective mom. And my Cousins are all girls. And I was bullied in my Elementary days so I can't play basketball with them. My neighbor too can't play with me because I am not allowed to go far from the house. When I was at my 7th grade I was embarrassed to play basketball.. I can't even dribble a ball. Time goes on and I accepted the reality that I can't play.

The arm hook is basically like grabbing someone's hand, punching yourself in the face with it and then saying they hit me.
Technically they did hit them .....
Jerry and technically it’s a little bitch move
@@lj-wp3sf And technically they still hit him
Maybe if they played defense to where they weren’t in the position for him to actually hook their arm. BASICALLY DONT REACH
That about sums up the joke the NBA has become.
Man has the processing power of an anime protagonist
A double step back IS travelling, it takes 4 steps, so even with a zero step it is travelling. The arm hook he uses is sometimes illegal as well as he initiates the tie-up by wrapping his arm around theirs, so he's grabbing them...so yeah, he does break the rules.

Hail fire lord harden 😂
This made me smile
This is a great breakdown as usual and I have to say that I've gained some level of respect for Harden, but I think most fans of any sport will agree that exploiting a game's rulebook does not make the game better for the spectator.
Maybe that's too general but what I mean is that I don't know how anybody can watch that arm hook move and not get pissed off. If you're strategy for offense is to try to create fouls out of thin air then the only thing that you are showing people is that there are loopholes that need to be closed. There is such a thing as the spirit of the game, after all.
Harden is like that guy in pickup games that challenges absolutely everything the other team does, because they care more about winning than actually playing the game.
Yeah it's not his fault though, the rules should be designed for the sport to be more fun and interesting to watch and not allow for a guy getting his most of his points off of fouls and travels.
@@dragoon2121 speak yo woes king!
It's called competitive game, as myself liking competition I hate all people who say I should just enjoy game the way it is
Couldn't have said it any better, brother. Foul-baitting is the most boring, eye-rolling, sleeper shit I've ever seen. Imagine paying hundreds of dollars to watch a bunch of actors shoot free throws.
i dont disagree. it's like the hack a shaq; what a dirty way to win a series. so maybe the arm hook needs to be looked at just like they changed the rip through for KD. but the zero/gather step rule seems legit to me
I actually had never heard of the 0 step before this. It explains so much. I would always just shake my head and wonder how NBA refs never caught those blatant travels.
A whole segment on the “Rule Changers” would be interesting
Look up a guy named Wilt Chamberlain I think he changed a couple rules
@@MichaelCorleone_ really? Never heard of him
Wilt, Michael, steph and harden
And shaq
Michael Nienaber I wouldn’t throw steph on here, change the game more than anyone but wilt but he just did it by showing how effective the 3 could be
This dude could get fouled 18 times while playing on the court by himself
Cool Dude agree.
😂😂😂😂
HATERS, hahahaha.. he is brilliant and super amazing
imcoolwith that shut up
@@imcoolwiththat9668 Not hating on harden, he’s an amazing player! But you have to admit that he does bend the rule book in ways that aren’t really fair for other players on the court. I want to see what he can do without using all these little tricks to truly see how good he is.
Another thing to consider -- Harden's ability to get 16 points per game from isolation speaks to his INTENT to do so. In other words, few other players have the balls to be that selfish, and flaunt it. Once he enters into an iso situation, he sticks with it, wearing his defender down, while the rest of his team kicks back and watches him work. I think that Harden's brilliance at iso scoring has the unintended effect of diminishing his teammates' interest and involvement in the game. And what evidence can I offer? The number of NBA titles he has. What you're missing here is the fact that most everyone besides Harden is playing Basketball, the TEAM game. He is playing Isoball, AKA Heroball. Others, including Ja Morant, Russell Westbrook and Kyrie Irving are Isoball wizards with no titles. It's not a team-friendly style of play, which is why he has never, and will never win the league. Which is fine by me.
Kyrie doesn't have a title???
kyrie has a title, and ja is literally entering his 5th or 6th season, u cant compare those two at all silly goose
Brilliant analysis Jimmy. And entertaining as well. Much respect for your work here.
I still don't know how they didn't make a rule for that arm grabbing bs. I would be pissed If I got a foul on those types of calls.
that and his push offs.. the travelling gather step argument i get but he still shoves his defenders away from him all the time.
My thing is when he drives to the lane, he gathers the ball with two hands, and with no contact he always acts like he being fouled.
@@BubbaGoon08 yea that stupid head jerk he does... i dont understand how he hasnt been fined or warned for flopping like embiid was this year.. its like its part of his shooting motion now with how much he jerks his head back..
Everyone in the league does the arm grab at this point it’s a near necessity to consistently get points. Harden was not the first person to use the arm bar either. Harden is not the only person to use a head fake to get a foul either, not even 2 hours ago from when i commented this Kyle Lowry did the same head fake and didn’t get a call and passed outside. It’s a common move to get fouls, but now because harden does it it’s annoyingly a breaking the rules and deserves a fine.

8:45 This "double step back" is clearly a travel. Harden has clearly gathered the ball before his left foot first strikes the ground, so the second time it does so is step#3.

They didn't put harden in the driver seat
@@minhajulhaque9918 bro, you made a statement saying “he never played with great players until now”. But sure, I don’t know what I’m talking about lol
@@kanyeeast1340 I said you don't know what ur talking about because you blamed him for the gentleman sweep and what I am saying is that doesn't make sense.

Houston had the worst record after he left. Okc never made it to the finals after he left. That's what u call impact
He's perfected the gather rule so well there are times he travels and they just don't call it. I think the gather rule is a load of bs, but the league wants scoring. He works tirelessly on his footwork and it shows.
Yup sometimes he messes up but they dont call it
U hating
his footwork is incredible
@@coolkid-cp7dq agreed 100%. i wouldnt mind though if they actually do call some travels cuz harden doesn't always get the gather timing right.
@@davidhoopsfan they watch his hands a lot to see if he keeps it in a dribbling position or if it's a gather they get so much abuse for it that they have to watch Harden every play so if they don't call a travel its probably cause there wasn't one

If this is the case with the "0" step the league should have the announcers share this during the games so as fans we don't keep saying how is everyone getting away with travels. Announcers just ignore it.

It’s not actually a travel, do your research
@@parkerlandergan8217 Its a travel with how the rules were originally made. They changed it to make it more entertaining. That zero step gather never used to be a thing. You got 2 steps and that was it, gather or not. I dont like that it was changed personally but that's how it is now.
maybe for me or you but i think that the refs can tell the difference in real time too

Omfg it's not about money. The NBA is a non profit. Only the franchises themselves can make money. Ur aloud to take three steps in the NBA and the first step off ur dribble isn't counted.
@Jordan Williams guess I'm 13 years old and educated.
Jordan Williams you’re the 13 year old
@Jordan Williams Bruh the NBA is making money one way or another. Houston is getting ticket sales one way or another. Harden is so expert with his gather it pisses me off. But it's helped me play in iso situations when others trust me to make a play. With the three step layup the 1st step (zero step) is named as such because at that point you can still dribble and make a play with the ball. Only once you pick it up with both hands is it a dead ball, meaning you have two steps afterwards.
@Jordan Williams Also did you forget Houston basically cost them the Chinese market so currently the NBA isn't giving them favours. Yet Harden averages 34 a game.
Watching this now as Hardens recent trade to the clippers has caused them to go 0-6 right now is hilarious. Brian Demaris’ rant calling him out is reminiscent of this video and so on point
The last comment about Harden adapting to new rules didn't age well 😂😂😂
Harden's greatest skill is his ability to understand the NBA rule book. His legal rule bag is a deep as his NBA skill bag.
nah it's scoring
His greatest skill is reading
Gotta give him credit for that.but he is boring to watch
Yes you have to be a good manipulator , actor as well , thats why he is unguardable he understands the game very well
Kuya he’s fun too watch to me 🤷🏾♂️ I love seeing him kill on iso
My beef has never been with Harden. I think he’s smart and incredibly crafty for manipulating the rules to his benefit. My beef is with the NBA for allowing and changing the rules to encourage it.
@Jordan Williams Appreciate greatness my guy
@Jordan Williams Exactly, this is what pisses me off. Yes, all the stuff Jimmy said in the video was true, but he didn't mention the excessive flopping and bitching that Harden does to get to the line. I definitely agree that he bends the rules to get to where he is now, and Jimmy did a good job spinning that in a positive light, but it's pretty easy to spin it in a negative way too.
@@absvd6114 Flopping ain't greatness my guy. If Harden didn't flop (even outside of the arm hook which shouldn't be legal, why would they reward players who were trying to get fouled), he wouldn't be looked at as "great" because he wouldn't score nearly as much as he does from getting to the line.
Jordan Williams yup averages a triple double flopping and traveling that’s how it works so trash
Exactly. Hardeen is indeed a genious scorer. With that said Jimmy & the other TH-camrs defending it should wait some more years to fairly pass judgement on he's play style. To see if it's effective.
Spoke nothing but pure facts 💯

@@majidsheikh4736 "Magic complained about it as well" - you literally just used the friendly shit talk with MJ and Bird during a photoshoot for the '92 Olympics to him legitimately complaining. Amazing the mental gymnastics people will do to try to create some kind of reality that doesn't exist.
Jordan would also jump to shoot, but the defense was in the way, so like 5 seconds later (before he had landed) he would bring the ball to his hip and shoot from there. It would be hard to be a defender and keep your hands off that nonsense.
I personally believe that in these situations, the NBA starts to shift to far off from FIBA basketball, which simply makes it less fun to watch. Most of us out there playing basketball on amateur or semi-pro level look at the NBA to be inspired. James Harden is not inspiring to watch, we can't pull of any of his moves.

Not sure anything in there wasnt already known. Much of his moves are based on phenomenal ballhandling strength footwork etc. But pretending like he doesnt routinely break the rules when he takes a 6th or 7th step is silly and at least for myself that has always been the annoyance. Not the stuff that's legal now that wasnt 30 years ago but the stuff that is clearly illegal even by today's rulebook but just gets let go anyway cause it results in buckets.

@@craigjohnston5781 It looks like he takes 7 steps, but if you break it down you'll realize it's three steps one being the gather step and is completely in the rules.

Bro some people are hating harfen for no reason. This is answer for them

ahv people can play Minecraft and still watch basketball related videos
TitaniumKranium so you didn’t watch the video?
I see u everywhere 😂
"The NBA has really loosened up on it's rules". Proceeds to watch bubble game with 57 free throws taken.
Offensively! They have tightened up on defensive calls
GOD THAT GAME WAS MISERABLE
the8u9 that was such a fun game to watch what do you mean lmao. 2 high powered offenses in a shootout.
@@zampy8706 Oh i mean when it was going, it was fun, you're right, but getting so many stoppages with the free throws kinda tired me out.
What game was that?
Hardens Derpie style play is hard to describe and even see it. Its kind of like he's handling the bad so bad like he could lose the ball on a turnover at any second and yet keeps it, fumbles his body to the hoop and score.
Great video and breakdown of rules I didn't realize existed
Jxmy: James harden makes the Best defenders in the league look like they have 2 left feet lol I’m dead 🤣🤣🤣
Proceeds to show pat Bev's knees breaking 😂😂😂💀
I'm only saying this so I can get yelled at:
It's "feet", not "feat"
Really close to 1k anyone mind helping I appreciate it thanks
Macovei Alexandru Fabian honestly idk y but when that really bothered me when he put feat so I thank you
Unless your name is josh okogie
Harden's euro is the one thing I give him big props for.
The rest of his stuff is just him exaggerating contact to get whistles, and him constantly shooting till the shots start to go in. He has so many iso points because of how many iso shots he attempt. No one else attempts iso as much as him.
Did you watch the video?
@@dylanmoore3368 Do you watch his games?
JROCK50054 yeah man, the stuff works obviously. They’re fourth in a crazy good Western Conference. You saying no one attempts as many iso then would imply that dame could do the same thing and be a top 5 team in the west?
@@dylanmoore3368 Well considering how much he goes to the line, yeah. But he's super inefficient in terms of fg% usually. So obviously the rest of the team is doing something, but if he didn't play the way he did, maybe the team would have had more success.
So hes bad cause cant noone can guard him in one on one situations ? Ion mean no harm r.i.p to kobe but thats the same reason yall love hime for harden is just 100 flashier
Jxmy and charts. Name a more iconic duo.
It was a travel. He travels on almost every shot he takes. Especially that step back jumper.
It’s called a father step you smelly casual keep crying
Cope
He's still trying to figure out how to bend the rule book to win a championship.
CornballSlim Lol as long as he doesn't get to the finals with this, Am good.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
🤣😂😂😂 facts
yeah, in the playoffs when refs stop calling these BS fouls he suddenly becomes a whole lot less effective
You said it
when everyone is four-step traveling no one is four-step traveling....
Basically 😭
It's crack up where he is on the chart ( above the demi-gods). Iso King!!!😂 Lmao
I'm pretty sure this is like my 4th time watching this video. I don't know why youtube keeps recommending this to me, but when I see a JxmyHighroller video, I can't not click on it
The NBA has currently disabled James Harden. Sorry for the inconvenience.
thanks for the likes
If only he could win a Championship.
Bryan Seay yeah ge would be top 3 sg of all time
im dead 💀😂😂
what did they finally change the rule so he could not cheat anymore
@@CharlesXavier8 he would’ve in 2018 if cp3 ain’t get hurt in game 5
I’ve been a Harden hater for a while, but you’ve convinced me he’s actually incredibly talented. I didn’t know about the zero step and arm hook rules. Great video
He’s a ball hog and a traveler. Keep believing these cornballs that make videos for 💰
Joshua Bracey he ain’t tho 💀. Idk if you dumb, ignorant, or what but jimmy dies his research and be on his shit.
antonio garcia never said he didn’t but I stand by what I said about Harden
@@AeroSNiiP3zZ he is a ball hog but he got skills
ZOMツ no doubt and not denying his talent I just think he bends the rules a lil too much and the refs don’t call him out on it
the sound give me chills
In this day and age of "alternative facts", Harden flourishes. This new wave of traveling, is still just that. You can call it a shuffle or anything else you want but to pick up your dribble and then move your pivot foot AT ALL is a travel.
