    This man Kenny said can you imagine what Maxwell would do without hand-checking, like he was comparable to Harden. LMAO.

    These old heads never cease to amaze me with their saltiness.

    Harden does seem to have a hard time scoring against Draymond when he gets switched onto him

    What he was saying is true as Maxwell was extremely quick and not being able to hand check him would have made him even more explosive off the dribble.

    Kenny never said he was "comparable" to Harden.

    Klay is not top 10. AI is not top 50 anymore. Maybe in 2015-16.

    You just listed Harden, CP3, KD, Curry, Dray and Klay in your top 10. That leaves 4 players from entire league to fill those spots. 3 when you factor lebron. Highly doubt Klay is better than Davis, Butler, Cousins, Kawhi, Westbrook, Kyrie, Giannis, KAT etc

    this,

    btw the only thing i would added for him(as well as for green) is a couple of drives more per game...it would make them more unpredictable and efficient

    we know they are capable of doing it, they are just not used to doing it consistently

    Typo meant klay green top 20

    I based this espn rankings this year they listed green & klay top 20 and AI top 50 and ego top 70

    so Harden top 5 cp3 top 10
    vs kd steph top 5 klay green top 20

    my point still stands they're superteam and we're 2 star team

    at best harden + cp3 slightly > kd & steph

    our roleplayers need to step up to at least neutralize klay, green, ai, livingston etc...

    shooting 39% on 3s on the year...he can shoot it any time he wants as far as i am concerned...
    the only thing i would like is for him to drive more often

    ps
    and hes a great role model for rhyno!

    and the only reason he doesn't have more clutch moments is because we been blowing out teams right before luc, cap, cp3 (2nd time) went out for injuries

    clippers 1st loss would have resulted in another harden clutch moment if nba & the refs didn't blatantly cheat the rockets out of the win

    capela averaging 30+ minutes in the playoffs while keeping consistency on efficiency and intensity will be huge for us

    rhyno was out of funk for a while now already
    he was shooting 41% from 3 in the last 5 games before this game

    NOW, he is shooting 43% on 3s in the last 5 games

    had better +- than harden in his 60pts game

    TAKE THAT FOR DATA

    so we in agreement that game +/- or BPM is a good guage of a player's net offensive & defensive impact/contribution to the team?
