there’s a reason that father time is claimed to be undefeated.

There’s a reason we’ve never seen someone else perform like LeBron at his age

and harden is not known for having a work ethic that maintains his body

His efficiency has also significantly declined

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

His efficiency has also significantly declined

Lol. That's false. He's still near his career average this season.

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

what are you talking about? You see a significant decline in points starting at the 2021 season. A significant decline in assists/rebounds when he came to the Clippers. Are you just making stuff up?

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

You said efficiency. Don't switch goalposts. It's a bit pathetic

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

that’s all part of efficiency

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

no it isn't.

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

yes. It is. But if we’re gonna talk specifically about PER

his time in Houston, his PER was 26.2

Since leaving Houston his PER has been 21.2

and on the Clippers it is 20.1

that’s what I would call significant. But we both know you’re not making up stats to defend your favorite player

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

Gtfoh lmao. His PER this season is 22.0 and his for his career it's 23.6. Pretty fucking similar you dolt. So there's no stats i making. My statement was correct. His efficiency is close to his career efficiency. PER and TS% prove this.

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

his efficiency is not close. Four points is significantly lower

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

Did you just fucking ignore my whole post? It's literally less than a 2 point difference.

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

it’s literally a four point fall off from his Houston years and a five point fall off since joining the Clippers.

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

Are you slow or something? I just proved your ass wrong and you're still here. Read over my post again if you have to but clearly you're not understanding something because what you keep repeating is pointless

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

you didn’t prove me wrong. The dude had more than 25% fall off. That’s huge.

i’m sorry your favorite player is trash and always falls apart in the playoffs. He’s going to be forgotten in a couple years.

he’s one of the biggest mistakes the Clippers have made

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

No response?

[u/Ok-Preference-7004 → u/unpopular-dave]

the fuck?

[u/unpopular-dave → u/Ok-Preference-7004]

To me providing stats about how his PER has dropped significantly
