Every NBA superstar has a weakness. They may be the best players in the world, but there's at least one thing on the court each superstar struggles with. Reddit user, neautralfan, posted a list of NBA superstars with a weakness for each player. The post is as follows:
The list covers 14 players including Kevin Durant, LeBron James, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, Stephen Curry, Ben Simmons, Chris Paul, Kawhi Leonard, Klay Thompson, DeMarcus Cousins, DeMar DeRozan, Kyrie Irving, Anthony Davis, and Giannis Antetokounmpo.
It's notable that four different Warriors make this list. The only Golden State All-Star who doesn't make this list is Draymond Green. Of the Warriors who did make the list, Durant receives the most interesting criticism. KD's weakness is listed as a lack of leadership.
For one, KD went to Golden State so he didn't have to be the leader so this does make sense. But it seems as though Durant will never get the respect he deserves based on the notion that he doesn't want to lead.
For the most part, these weaknesses are fair, but one of Harden's weakness is listed as “Not as good in playoffs compared to the regular season.” His numbers dip slightly in the playoffs, but this seems to imply that Harden doesn't show up in the playoffs.
Even the best players in the world have off nights from time to time. Harden is no exception. But when you look at his career numbers in the playoffs they match up against anyone.
Reddit remains an NBA offseason gold mine.
