KD will always be better because he is as skilled but is superior physicaly. Longer, quicker, out of reach. Buckets Harden has to grind for KD just pull-up uncontested - because let's be real, even if his defender jumps it isn a contest still. Kinda like T-mac with his jumper, no matter who contested he was always below
so you saying replace Harden with KD and the Rockets guaranteed to win over GSW with harden in a 7 game series with the last game no CP3?
They've got 3 open roster spots to fill. They still have the tax payer mle and they will get an injured player exception for Dinwiddie. They need a big who can block shots, rim run and rebound some. There are some interesting bigs on the benches of some non-contenders. Guys who would be way more valuable to the Nets than they are to their current team. Here's a couple of examples. McGee is now 3rd string center on the Cavs and making $4.2 m. Whiteside averaging under 13 minutes/g and has racked up several DNPCD. He's only making $2.3m. The Nets will likely be big players in the buyout market too.
imho Harden is better and its not even close, its just that years of media brainwashing is hard to overcome in peoples heads... its pathetic but people still reason like 'but hes a 2 times finals mvp!' lolol they dont have a slightest respect for the context
They are supposedly waiting for ariza to get bought out and are linked with Dedmond. They also have a pretty good young big in claxton . They have dinwiddies injury exception to work with to. Nets are going to be insanely good once their roster is finalised
They have overlapping but not identically elite skillsets. There are things Harden can do better than KD, and vice versa. Quickness you have backwards, harden is definitively quicker than KD. Method is spot on. Harden does have to work much harder to get his shot off. KD can pull up for a quality shot anytime, anywhere, over anyone with ease.
Harden is the best playmaker of this generation and probably top 5 all time. Now he gets to play with 2 of the best finishers in the NBA.
Nah, Harden is the better player at this point. James Harden is far better going to the basket and also can set everyone up. It has been two games and James Harden is already running that team and everything starts with him. That isn't a slight to Kevin Durant because Harden is the second best player in the world over nearly a decade. Kevin Durant is a perfect match for Harden though because he isn't ball dominant and Harden is great for KD because he will get him lots of solid shots..... that three by KD to win the game was off a Harden drive and miss, a Harden offensive rebound and then found KD open for a great look 3.
Harden comparisons is the last vestige of the Harden as a Rocket fandom. Now that Harden is with BK, my hate watching of other players has pretty much ceased. sad day.
