    I was just having an argument on this thread ... http://bbs.clutchfans.net/showthread.php?t=217307

    and basically My opinion was that both Tyreke and Harden are very close in talent and potential ... I think that in a Poll it would be close to even.. while people seemed to think that Harden wins in a landslide ... so lets see what you guys think ...

    This isn't even close.

    Harden is by far the better player. He is being held back by his coach and two stars in front of him. Despite that he is crucial and a difference maker for the team.

    Tyreke is an inefficient chucker.

    Rockets would be stupid not to jump on Harden if the opportunity presented itself.

    I'll take Harden over Evans any day of the week. Both are very talented players, and they are both very young; however, Evans has yet to show the great strides in improving his game like Harden has. We've seen what Evans can do as the number 1 option on a team, but the numbers that Harden is putting up is not very far off, and this is despite the fact that he is just the 3rd option.

    Everyone is entitled to their opinion ... even I didn't say Evans is much better .. =) ... I just don't think Harden is significantly better ... I think its very close ... But ill be honest Id lean towards Evans ...

    I don't disagree with you Turtle ... but there is something to be said of earning being the first option ... Switch roles and I think Harden wouldn't make SAC any better ... but think hard and notice that Evans might make OKC better lol ... again just my opinion sir .

    Depends on the cost of the opportunity ... would i take Harden over Courtney Lee at double the price ... HELL NO ... but at under 10 million ... without having to give up much ... sure

    Harden every day, and twice on Sundays. Not even close.

    I respect your opinion but averaging 6 assists a game and being asked to be the primary option by your coach isn't exactly a ball stopper ... and why would he be considered an idiot man ?

    Tyreke stinks, that guy is a chemistry killing, ball stopping, overated, JR Rider type of player.

    Harden is probably the best perimeter PnR player in the league.

    This is a joke as a poll right?

    Lowry and Harden would be one of the two or three best backcourts in the NBA.

    Folks.

    The poll results will end up being self-ownage for the OP. This is not what he was expecting *laugh*

    Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
