    Same country that's seriously consider Donald Trump for president. Not surprised many exhibit poor judgement in identifying the best shooting guard in the NBA.

    Wow. Butler and Harden are head-and-shoulders better than Klay.

    It just shows how much americans don't like mexicans and are afraid to say it, so they show it by voting for Tramp :eek:

    Do you know what the word average means? You don't average the numbers he does and show up once and a while. You don't win players MVP and show up once and a awhile. Your bias clouds your judgement sir.

    It's not who's a better player, obviously it's not Klay. But in my book, Klay is a pure shooting guard, that's why he's the best shooting guard.

    I might compromise myself, because Kobe is considered to be SG, but when a guy is holding the ball in every possession more than any other teammate, that guy is PG, not SG.

    ****ing player only fans are the worst.

    Go hate Harden else where.

    28.5 points, 6.5 rebounds, 7 assist, 1.5 steals shooting 43/35/86 is volume scoring on a "bad team" is pure "volume scoring" gtfo.

    Our team is .500, that isn't a bad team. Its defintely underachieving for us but it's still a respectable basketball team. I guess that means Jimmy Butler, Davis, Wall and all the other star players on teams sitting around .500 or below are fake as well.

    1) I think your notion of positional duties are archaic in the modern NBA, but even MJ dominated the ball in the 90's and he was a shooting guard because that was the position he played, it's not the same as role. MJ dominated the ball and the ball went through him. But he was NOT a PG.

    2) What defines a "pure" shooting guard? Is your archetype of "pure" shooting guard who plays off the ball - a Reggie Miller/Ray Allen/JJ Redick clone? So what about Jimmy Butler, Dwyane Wade, etc...? Are they PG's by your definition? Do you see why what you're saying makes no sense?

    If Harden is a SG, then Westbrook is the best SG in the NBA. Eitherway, whatever position Harden is playing, he's not the best at that position. Just because you have letters SG next to your name in ESPN website, doesn't mean it's true. DMo is still 222lbs according to ESPN.
    Who do you trust more, me or ESPN?

    You haven't gone crazy. In my country when I say I'm a Rockets fan and a fan of Harden they all look me strange and try to make fun. No respect and everyone dislikes the team.

    Of course almost all are really clueless so I put them shortly in their place.

    Just by basic math alone, the sentence in bold is idiotic.

    So by that logic, you would say that Kobe wasn't the best shooting guard in his prime years, correct?

    Harden leads the NBA in turnovers per game.
    Explain this.

    YOU GUISE!! LEBRAN AINT A SF, HE UH POINT GUARD YOU GUISE!

    who are you going to believe, me or everybody else!?!? Lebron isn't the best player at PG so he isn't the best player at his position. Durant is the best SF he's a lure SF... Or actually maybe Durants a shooting guard because he shoots a lot.... Maybe that makes Curry a PG tho?

    You guise, I am confuse.

    That's would pretty much be my response. Klay is Steph's Pippen.

    its not just like that up there, it's like that everywhere and online as well. ppl straight up hate Harden and Howard. It's also a national media narrative now, so they'll go after Harden just to get more views and popularity. Like that guy who made up the rumors about Harden trying to get ppl fired.
