    CP3 pulled his hammy but Harden sucked that series. Had he played up to 70% of his regular season self, the series would've been over before CP got hurt.


    This is same series Harden was pouting around midcourt when CP had the ball?

    It makes it even worse he didnt try harder to get the two together.

    He should have known better than anyone everyone other than embiid should have been available to get a deal done.

    Joel is having an MVP season no question but he hasnt done this for long enough to be compared to james.

    Agree. Harden wasnt perfect but he the only reason Rox were in that position. It's not his fault KD signed with the best team in the league.

    Cant blame Harden when the opponent has more all stars than him and their best player is better than him as well (hope nobody disagrees KD is better than Harden I think it is clear at this point lol).

    Nah KD is a two way player and elite at both ends. Curry is mediocre defensively and Harden cant guard the perimeter. KD at his peak could stand toe to toe vs the best perimeter players in NBA history like prime Kawhi and Lebron.

    No he isn’t. KD isn’t that impactful player of a defensively. Both Curry and Harden impact the game much more on the offensive end than whatever gap their is on the defensive end.

    Not only that, you said KD is “clearly” better, hard disagree.

    KD has like a foot over both of them he is better, period. Curry and Harden cant guard the Lebrons, KDs, Giannis and Lukas of the NBA KD can do that. On offense he cant be shut down by Rajon Rondos and Dorts cuz he is too tall he would require a 6'8 forward guarding him at least. His height allows him to make broken plays and grab rebs better than Harden and certainly Curry. Due to his height you can play him PF in small ball matchups cant do that with Curry and Harden. Curry is the best shooter in the league but KD is also one of the best shooters in NBA history, certainly more accurate than Harden. He isnt the playmaker Harden is but you can def run the offense thru him OKC was an elite team even when he had WB dragging him down.

    When GSW faced Cleveland KD was the one who solo'd Lebron. Curry and Harden can do certain things better than KD but KD can do things they cant.

    Please don’t put Curry in the same sentence as Harden and KD whom both are better overall players.

    Curry is better than KD man. Cmon, lets be objective. The guy has two MVPs, one of which was unanimous. I dont think its wrong to say both he and Harden are better than KD.

    When Morey said it was the most unstoppable thing he's ever seen - I thought he was describing Tilman's efficiency in absolutely decimating a franchise.
