    "Best 2-way SG" is just a tagline conjured up by Klay Thompson's agent to get him his deal. Klay is a top 3-5 SG. Harden is obviously number 1. This is so obvious it's not even an issue.

    If we're comparing analyst opinions, then I'll cite Zach Lowe's opinion that Harden's the best SG.

    C'mon, man. Quit cherry picking stats to fit your flawed narrative.

    Tell the whole story.

    Derozan

    21.9 ppg, 2.6 ast (13.9 ast%), 4.8 reb, 2.1 stl
    21.7 PER, 52.7 TS%, 42.1 FG%, 22.2 3PT%
    Plus/Minus 0.8, VORP 2.0, Win Shares 0.9

    Thompson

    24.7 ppg, 3.3 ast (17.1 ast%), 3.0 reb (5.0 reb%), 1.0 stl
    22.0 PER, 63.2 TS%, 48.4 FG%, 47.4 3PT%
    Plus/Minus 2.7, VORP 2.9, Win Shares 0.9

    Harden

    25.1 ppg, 7.5 ast (38.0 ast%), 6.4 reb (10.0 reb%), 1.6 stl
    25.5 PER, 56.6 TS%, 38.7 FG%, 30.9 3PT%
    Plus/Minus 8.1, VORP 7.8, Win Shares 1.8 (best in NBA)

    The bolded numbers should really stand out. Even a blind man can see that Harden is clearly the best SG so far this season and it's not close. Once his shooting % progresses to the mean, his impact will truly be MVP-like.

    Advanced stats tell the story, dude. Get a clue. :rolleyes:

    So the final score of PHI@DAL is 58-156?

    And maybe it's an extra off night for Philly. It's not like the Mavs play great defense -- but Wroten / McDaniels / Sims would normally at least be scoring at a somewhat respectable level. MCW back hurts Wroten's production, I guess.

    Bulls need to pay up for Butler. Shut down perimeter defenders who can give you 17-18 points are a rarity.

    Derozan looks like a scrub tonight with Butler guarding him.

    What you need to remember is that 'what' is a known troll with very little logical opinions on things. He goes for the shock value to get some reactions, especially with his takes on the Rockets.

    I like him though because he's the gift that keeps on giving. The stuff he posts is comedy gold more often than not.

    He's Demar Defrozan tonight. A couple more misses and he'll be shooting worse than Harden.

    Kings will be very very good. I guess they gotta learn. No excuse for blowing that lead. Absolutely no excuse.
