    Even The Great LeBron gets hating on. Dude it comes with territory. But currently on this thread is don't see anybody hating on James. And if some decide to go with Klay over James, well so be it. It's their prerogative. That's not hate lol.

    Harden is the better 1v1 player and Klay is the better team player..End of debate.

    Devin Brooker has the chance to be the best shooting guard in 3 years. Brooker may be a better version of Klay Thompson, just saying.

    If you want to end the debate on a completely nonsensical non-resolution that allows one side an illusory perception of face saving because the great weight of the evidence points one way and both the other....

    ...it is a good ending point.

    Faveriot team golden state warriors. Enough said. If you think if you switched Klay and Harden and the Rockets would become better I don't know what to tell you.

    As a #1 option Harden is better. He is the better scorer and play maker for sure..and no if Klay switched with Harden the rockets would be worse. The Rockets put players and a style to complement Harden. So no, Rockets would be worse.

    Counter argument is If GSW swapped Klay for Harden, GSW wouldn't be better either.

    I disagree. Harden could easily spread the floor just like Klay does, but it would be a waste of his abilities. Imagine if he played the sixth man role there like he did in OKC and the 2nd unit basically ran through Harden. Does Klay have that versatility? Curry and Harden leading that team would be unfair.

    When things aint goin your way people start talking stupid. Hell no Klay aint better than Harden. Klay benifits from the system hes in. Harden IS the system. If you swap GS is much better and Houston is waaaaaaay worse. Who gonna run the team? Klay? Yall need to quit. Id like to see how Klay look on s team full of scrubs with Coaches game-planing for him. Yall sound drunk.

    That is the problem with Harden, He is not a system player, He is the system and Harden's system is 1v1 street balling. D'antoni may be the best coach/system for Harden because of the spacing and offense pressure it puts on other teams and defense is not top priority if you can outscore the opponent. I even said Harden is the better 1v1 player and is more talented.

    Disagree. When you have a player that good its the coaches job to find out how to utilize him. And he was a fantastic system player in OKC. Im sure Popavich would have no problem finding how to best use Harden.
