Watch: James Harden shimmies on Ricky Rubio then misses shot

James harden

James Harden got a little cocky a little too early on Wednesday night.

Early in Game 2 of the Houston Rockets-Utah Jazz first round playoff series, Harden shook Ricky Rubio with a stepback move. Rubio was so lost that Harden had a few seconds of empty space to clown around and do a shimmy. The only problem is Harden missed the shot:

As they said on Shaqtin’ A Fool, that’s a million dollar move and a 10 cent finish.

Sadly for Rubio, that might not be the worst he’s taken from Harden. This crossover in 2015 was pretty bad too.
