    This is true, but even more people hate Wade because of his constant flops and dirty plays, especially Boston fans for what he did to Rondo last year.

    Plus the awesome beard gets Harden some free fans and more likes;)

    Wade is still the best but only if he doesn´t get injured again. 2nd best are Harden and Kobe, depending on who plays more efficient.

    He's no doubt a great player, but....

    Dwyane Wade shot 97 free throws in the 2006 NBA Finals.

    Harden, on the other hand, is legit and not backed by Tim Donaghy & co.

    Anybody who doesn't think he's top 3 has lost his freaking mind.

    Paul George can make a case for top 3 SG. He's very good offensively, but his defense is remarkable.

    George can make the case that he is not a SG by design

    Who cares that he is taller than the average SG. He is a SG. It's your skill set, not your height, that determines your position.

    Paul George is good and he's improving nicely, but no way is he in the top 3. Just not enough shot creating ability (yet).

    I fear Paul George is starting to get a bit overrated on CF. He is a nice player and I'd trade Parsons + all our rookies for him in a heartbeat, but so far he has not shown the signs of having an elite offensive game.

    He just flips me out the way he casually drills some of those 3's. What confidence.

    He's going to have to be once Granger comes back though.
    I would say George is definitely the most athletic out of the players in discussion, but I would take Harden over George any day of the week.

    Suck my balls with that, he had one bad series. Against three of the best perimeter defenders in the league. And he owned the WCF's.

    Is the bear catholic? Does the pope crap in the woods?

    Today King James played like the best SG ever.[​IMG]

    Yes, there's only one King James in my heart, and his hairline is not receding.

    It's not simply his offensive game, it's the whole package. Take away everything Kobe and Wade have done in the past (the MVPs, the championships, etc.). I would make the case that Paul George has been playing much better than Kobe this year, and maybe Wade as well.
