nope and i say that without hesitation. harden still has work to do to reach dwade status. that shouldn't even be questioned. dwade has cemented himself has one of the top sgs of all time. as someone mentioned earlier slow your roll concerning harden. time will tell
Let me guess, you are the kind of guy that wants to just puts stats side by side and ignore all the context. D wade was clutch in the playoffs and played with scrubs before Lebron. I'd take prime D wade over this years Harden every single day. Hopefully, future Harden can reach or even surpass what D wade was as a player.
Ceiling: perennial All-Star and All-NBA, top-3 player in the league, multiple Finals MVPs and championships, Hall of Fame. Floor: perennial All-Star and All-NBA, top-10 player in the league, marginal playoff success, probably still Hall of Fame.
The 67 win Warriors don't appear every year, and the Clippers seriously thought they were going to win it all this year. The Spurs had a very legitmate chance to repeat it again. Harden and Rockets despite all the injuries and new additions had a phenomena season in a HISTORICAL year. I hope you guys realized that.
with all that being said, that still doesn't put harden on the same level as wade. that shouldn't even be a knock on harden. as much success as he's had season he can still work to become even better and reach another level. but that's on him to do so.
What did DWade do before LeBron and after the Championship for you to say that? Prime DWade, no? Let's just agree to disagree.
Still trying to figure out why ATL and CAVs both ended their series before us . . .but did not start until after us The Strict every two day schedule is brutal Rocket River
There are still people accusing him of being wasted in the club during the playoffs, even after dude who originated the story said he made it up? Oh.
Harden just needs some help. We will be alright. Build around him, a rebounding big, already got a post presence in DMO, get a legit PG that can defend, Ariza is a keeper. The Warriors are not going anywhere, neither will we.
