    Anderson is 1% better from 3 than last year, and is averaging 2 less points. But yeah that combination definitely makes me think CP3 will add 10 points to Klay's average.

    Cp3 is smarter than you. Cp3 came here to play with harden. Cp3 got to sit out 10 games while harden kept his squad on top. The fit is there. The fit is perfect.

    He didn't have a choice because Klay was already playing with Steph. And if CP3 soon finds out that Harden regularly chokes during big games, he might have a second thought

    I actually am not a harden only fan. I see harden's faults and things he can improve on. But if you think klay Thompson is the answer then you are very mistaken. If cp3 sits for 10 games and klay is our ball handler we are fuuucked

    You're making a different point here. Harden is better when CP3 is off the court, but in terms of on court fit, CP3 + Klay is way better.

    And I really didn't expect Harden to stink that bad against the Spurs last night... I thought he would have a revenge game or something. Now I seriously question this dude's mental fortitude, and it's getting to the point where even the die hard fans are finding it difficult to defend Harden's choking job in big games.

    We have 48 minutes of elite point guard play. Klay is the fourth best player on a championship team. klay could have got replaced by JJ reddick and they still would have won 2 chips. Harden's worst game of the season was a great game for klay.
    Again...cp3>you if you think the only reason cp3 came to Houston is because klay was unavailable to play with them you are a moron. Cp3 is older now and he can literally miss a whole season and harden will still get us the 2-3 seed. It's working. Stop b****ing dude Lin ain't coming back

    MDA staggers CP3 and Harden because he has to. If they were better fit together, they would share much more time on the court.

    tbh, I have no faith in Harden's 'elite playmaking' ability against teams such as the Spurs or the Warriors. It works fine against weaker competition, but Harden becomes a careless turnover machine when matched up against elite defense. CP3 is just way better and more consistent, because he can dissect any team's defense.

    if we traded Harden for Klay last year, GSW are still champions with harden or KD with their #1 option

    while the Rockets wouldn't have made the playoffs

    Cp3 came to the rockets to play with Harden not with Reddick or Klay

    CP3 about to find out Harden is a serial choker in big games, and second guess his decision.

    Harden's playmaking alone blew out the Spurs twice in a playoffs series by the way, we were on the way to win game 5 too but Harden went full r****d mode. But you probably didn't really watch the games. If we had CP3 last year the series would have ended in 5 in our favor.

    lmao, there is no way CP3 would have struggled against last year's Spurs because the midrange area was wide open the whole time and idiots on this team didn't take any advantage of it
