    Hardens postgame is non existent and defense needs working on.

    Post this in the lakers forum, it would be hilarious to see their reaction.

    But yeah Kobe is most likely still better if he comes back healthy

    Kobe was a far worse defender last season.

    I don't know why he's apologizing to Kobe. If Harden is the best shooting guard in the league, he displaced Wade from the top, not Kobe.

    Wade lacks discipline defensively and was constantly getting burned because he likes to stay back and complain to refs after what he considers to be a missed call. However, when he's focused, like he was in game 4 of the Finals, he is a dominant force defensively.

    Wade still makes big plays in Championship games and has a magic touch one on one. I don't like the guy, but he gets it done when everyone doubts him.

    Harden hasn't gotten quite to that place yet, but he should.

    Harden's Defense is still a work in progress.

    Sure, he's better than an injured Kobe.

    Harden is better than Wade offensively, Wade is better defensively. If you want to say that Wade is the best SG for sentimental reasons because this will be the last season you can ever say that then fine, but Harden has a legit argument as the best. Kobe is old and broken, he's not even in the conversation.

    Kobe just torn his Achilles, Wade is getting old and with his style of play there's a good chance he'l degress or get injured. Plus Wade has LeBron as the man on the team, Harden even with Dwight will still be the primary scorer and ball handler.

    Its between those 3, depending on Kobe's comeback and wade's degression Harden could the best next season, or he could be 2nd or 3rd.
