If we win 23 games in a row, is Harden better than T-Mac?

    I don't think he cares about the truth, Tinman. He's just doing it to get a laugh, that's why dude included the joker gifs.

    Harden's assists are inflated due to pace. Did you watch T-Mac's entire career? T-Mac was an elite playmaker, not some good playmaker. He was a 6'9 point guard. He just didn't have Mike D'Antoni as his head coach and dumped it to Yao in the post half the time, whereas Harden is the entire offense. That doesn't mean T-Mac was any less capable of a playmaker than Harden just because T-Mac had an elite post option to share the ball with.

    @swyyyguy - If you're stinky Mavs win 2 or 3 games in a row (let alone 23), does that mean you're better than the Brooklyn Nets?

    Wrong. It's the other way around tbh. This season's Harden beats 02-03 T-Mac.

    Harden will accomplish more....

    And I think this thread will come alive once Harden stinks it up in the playoffs.

    You have to play a little more Defense to achieve a 23 win streak.

    Di Antoni is just not a defensive coach and Bzdelik is just not a factor.
