    dont include made up stats that you cant prove like real plus/minus. Or awards voting on by the media, Im talking strictly facts and numbers

    https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2014_leaders.html ( 2014 NBA Season)

    https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2015_leaders.html (2015 NBA Season)

    https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2016_leaders.html (2016 NBA Season)

    https://www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_2017_leaders.html ( 2017 NBA Season)


    So i made this thread, because i got into an argument on reddit with warrior fans who claim curry had the best 3 year offensive run in NBA History, i countered with Harden from 2015-2017. With 2017 being the greatest season ever produced by an NBA Player

    I decided to post this on the NBA Forum, because i know if i set up a poll in the GARM, the votes would likely be in Hardens favor.

    harden.

    I do think there is a compelling argument to be made about harden last year (2017) having the greatest offensive season ever.

    Curry's 73 win season in 2016 was pretty damn insane too and better than harden's 2015 and 2016 season.

    I thought harden's 2015 was better than steph's 2015 season and better than steph's season this year (2017) though.

    Both way better than Westbrook though. I don't even want to see him in this debate lol.

    I'd go with Curry due to his insane efficiency

    Much as I want to avoid voting Harden, I give it to him for putting up ungodly numbers with far less spacing.

    Curry may be the best shooter in the league, but if you swapped him in Harden's place, which guy would stay closer (or even exceed) his efficiency levels?

    Harden when you take into account facilitating/making teammates better. Curry if you only look at scoring/efficiency.

    Put an offensive roster for Harden like Curry's and it would be even more lopsided. You can't shift your defense to shade with 4 all stars on the court at the same time.

    rockets truth is the master of fake conspiracies and out of left field theories about why the rockets get their salad tossed by the warriors.

    Curry is the most harmless player ever and yet so many people feel demasculated by him.

    Harden.

    Obviously if we're talking about individual success.

    I get what you're saying and agree, but I think you have the salad tossing mixed up. You're saying the Warriors have been licking the Rocket's buttholes, when I think you meant the other way around lol.

    And it's emasculated ;)

    Not even close. The #'s back it up. Harden 's 3 years run #s are HISTORICAL.

    Harden is way better than Curry. Curry got the light skin treatment and stole Harden's MVP. That's why the Players gave the MVP to Harden, not the racist NBA writer that voted for light skin.
