    People are obviously going to throw Manu out there because of the euro-step...


    But, can anyone come up with a good comparison for a player from, say, the 70s, 80s, 90s, even 00s? Obviously Harden's only 24 and his game will evolve, but I was wondering if CF could come up with comparisons other than Manu

    Lets get a dub!

    A little bit of Gilbert Arenas in his prime of course. People forget how great that guy was at one point in time.

    Glen Robinson, Carmelo, Dominique Wilkins, star players who can't play defense.

    T-Mac ... his defense during his last year during his tenure with the Rockets.

    His use of the shot clock is Francis-esque at times.

    A selfish, trying to do it all by himself, fake tough guy with no sense of responsibility.

    Gilbert Arenas...

    Only if you put Harden and Gilbert Arenas side by side, suddenly Gilbert looks like Gary Payton.

    I would trade Harden for a 24 year old healthy Brandon Roy in a milli-second
