    50 year old Matt Bullard is better than 29 year old Ryan Anderson.

    Saying someone is better than another athlete is not jealous. The definition of jealousy is love and Hate at the same time. And I do not love Nor hate jordon. I do love harden tho. I’m a 95er btw so I’m in it before u

    No, I'm sure that Lebron is better than Harden, and would find a way to the WCF as the 2/3 seed in a weak western conference last year.

    Even if he is not, he is more versatile and much more athletic in his prime.

    LOL but he needed to rest 10 games and can't win more than 51 games with love and mvp kyrie in the weaker east last year

    has anyone gone to the finals with 2nd highest paid player as bad as RA?

    Yes.

    The Cavs lost all 8 games Lebron sat out last year. WIth Lebron, they were 51-23. Which is a 68.9% winning percentage. Which was better than the Rockets.

    Lebron rested for a reason, because he didn't care if they were 1st or 2nd seed... for good reason.

    He's rested 0 games so far this year. I'm sure he'd rather have some rest, but his team isn't ready for that. The conference is better. The team isn't ready to adjust to him going out and in. IT just came back, Etc. He knows that.

    He doesn't "need" rest. He strategizes for rest. The same way Pop does. Cause as much as it annoys me as a fan, its smart health and conditioning

    Didn't Harden run out of gas in the playoffs? Maybe he should have rested some, lol. Lebron would have played as much as he needed to and taken last year's Rockets team farther, no question.

    so he would have rested 8 games too and won 50 games at best with the rockets last season

    unless you truly believe Ryno & Ego are worth 5 wins better than Love & Kyrie

    Or he would have rested 0 games. Or 3 games. Or 12 games.
    Or who knows.

    I don't see how this pointless argument is relevant in any way.

    yeah its fine to agree to disagree

    you would trade harden straight up for giannis while me, morey, cp3, and majority on this board would not

    you would replace harden with lebron last year because your're so sure that'll make the rockets WCF contenders at best while me, morey, cp3, and majority on this board would not

    hey mavsprick you must really be happy harden's injured

    i'm just saying if harden replaces GSW's best player in 2015 & 2017 would still make them champs

    harden's ain't holding back this team.. its the other way around

    LOL mavsprick didn't read anything just saw Harden's name and started posting

    did I ever say that? quote me

    I just said Jordan never had someone as bad as RA as the 2nd highest paid player on the team

    and Harden never had a championship team around him

    how many wins could Jordan have single handedly carried the rockets last year??

    now go back under your rock mavsprick come out again when harden's injury get worse or he's out for the whole season

    LOL mavsprick so triggered

    I'll wait until Morey builds a true GSW killer team around Harden

    but I'm sure Jordan wouldn't have won us a ring last year

    for me they both can't give this team as its built a championship

    maybe when you watch games you can yell at harden that jordan is better than him LOL
