    His driving feints and scoring ability and fearlessness remind me of Clyde the Glide

    Sounds crazy, but he reminds me a lot of a young Paul Pierce with more speed(shorter version). He has the hesitation drive like Pierce, savvy on attacking with angles. Reads the Defense very well, and knows when to use the pull-up J.

    Since Pierce is a SF, he uses more post-up, but I think Harden can also add that to his game. Harden is pretty strong for a SG.

    I was kinda thinking about him also,but I'm gonna stick with joe johnson. Richmond was a bad man though. If he's mitch richmond,then that's a really,really good deal.

    His game is a combination of Mitch Richmond and Gary Payton.. Very old school...A typical 90s player type of game..

    The white James Harden, but that's only if he tries hard enough.

    Magic Johnson. Harden is shorter and not as good of a rebounder, not quite the court vision of Magic, but a better shooter.

    Derrick Chievous- he was just inducted to the Missouri Sports Hall Of Fame, definitely his mouth got him in ;)


    Harden is Monta Ellis, but with a better head on.

    Footage: harden 21-23 yrs; Ginobili 29-34 yrs

    Currently I believe he's a combination of a young pierce and ginobili. Although, he's not as crafty as Ginobili and a lesser defender to pierce. I see harden on their levels and eventually becoming an NBA Champion. Gino and pierce got a ring in their 30s and that might be the case for harden. It will depend on his supporting cast, because he will definitely do his part.
