    Chuck: Man this like one of them Barber shop questions Ernie. You remember Eddie Murphy when he did that Barber shop scene in coming to america

    Kenny: Look, for his era, Harden would be pretty really good, for his era. But, all time, we're talking about 5 George Iceman Gervin clones

    Shaq: FINGER ROLL

    Chuck: It's the FIVE FINGER ROLL DISCOUNT

    Shaq: FINGER ROLL

    Chuck: Man ERnie its late, remember when they cloned a sheep? Why they'd do that?

    Ernie: Yes, many years ago, I think it's name was Dolly?

    Chuck: Why are they cloning sheep? Who the hell asked them to clone sheep? We got enough sweaters already.

    Shaq: You sweatin enough for all of us tonight out here

    Chuck: It's global warming ernie, ain't nobody need no more sheep

    Each of the 5 Hardens can play each of the 5 positions.

    Don't think Kobe can play post. Harden would lob to Harden.

    Hmmmm, I’d say it depends on where the game is played.

    If it’s in Colorado then at least one of the Kobes misses the game due to authorities questions.....4 on 5

    Now if it’s in H Town then at least one Harden shows up a little “out of sorts”, goes 15-82 but pulls it out by going 28-28 at the line. However, if our boy T Brothas is working the game it’s a push and all bets are off.

    Kobe can score in more ways inside the three point line. Post up threat, more comfortable shooting off pin downs, and his superior athleticism makes him a lob threat. Harden is the better outside shooter by a fair degree, but can be flustered by physical defense on the perimeter. If we are talking peak Kobe vs peak Harden, I will go with the Kobes.

    Here's what qualities I think a five clones team would need:

    on offense

    1. Shot creation (duh)
    2. Range/spacing - 5 Ben Simmons means 2-3 of them are useless on most plays when they're not in range.
    3. Passing
    4. Size (get rebounds, not get blocked)

    On defense - basically same you want with everything you want now (size, ability to guard all 5 positions/bigger players)

    I think that 5 LeBrons probably beats everybody? He checks every box.

    Harden is a bigger more physical SG that would have no issue guarding Kobe.

    2v2. Harden and Hakeem v Kobe and Shaq. Winner takes on Jordan and Longley. H town wins hands down.

    I'd take Kobe in that scenario. I hear he's ruthless and refuses to lose.

    Any of the Kobes wont pass even if they are guarded by 5 hardens. So harden will win.

    This thread is a joke right?

    Kobe isn't close! TS% .550 for Kobe vs .610 for Harden. Kobe would be absolutely schooled! The only thing that can stop Harden getting a layup whenever he wants is plonking a big fat guy in the lane (and the refs swallowing their whistles) - how the hell is Kobe going to stop him even once?

    I want to say Harden, but prime Kobe was a very good defender and would really make it tough for the Jimmy's to score.
