    The denial is disgusting. I loved Harden and he was a top 3 player last year, but he's not top 10 this hear.

    In no order

    George
    Lebrun
    Davis
    Curry
    Durant
    Westbrook
    Leonard
    Cousins recently.
    Draymond.
    Blake tbh.
    Butler is arguable
    And in all honesty, Dwight the past few weeks.

    Harden has empty stats a lot of games. He needs to give effort every game on both ends. Numbers pov though yes but there's more to the game than numbers.

    Wow now people don't consider Harden a top ten player anymore.

    hahaha gotta love Clutchcity.

    And yes Howard is still elite. Especially on defense.

    Near elite.

    Without Dwight this team would not be a low playoff team.

    They would be 11-13th seed.

    Harden would be all turnover and letting every second guy penetrate past him.

    Dwert brings good rim protection and very solid D.

    if you're going by empty numbers then cousins surely isn't top 10... he's never even sniffed the playoffs... its like we completely forget he was arguably the best player in the league last year and after we get off to a slow start he all of the sudden isn't elite... Anthony Davis for that matter is getting massive stats on a absolutely pathetic team

    Cousins as of recent. Getting wins and putting up numbers. Not all year though. And last year isn't this year. People don't seem to get that. This isn't that harden.

    He has put up nightly triple doubles and is the main reason the warriors are as good as they are. Even more than curry even though curry is a better player if that makes sense. Draymond does it all 1-5.

    harden has been putting up numbers and wins and leading his team to the playoffs every year... what had cousins really done to earn top 10 status? it's easy to put up huge numbers when your team is trash... doesn't make you a top 10 player... and what is different about harden this year from last?

    Good to see there's others that realize cousins just isn't as good as advertised

    Dwight Howard is simply the most dominant center in the NBA

    Hasn't Paul George been putrid recently offensively after his hot streak?

    Cousins no. So you're saying a couple of good hot weeks makes up for the couple of months of so-so?

    Blake - no. You can't miss a quarter or so of your team's games and be top 10.

    Davis I'd honestly say no.

    You look at Harden's numbers and they're great. So we're judging him by the team's position in the West? Exactly when does that logic begin to apply for AD who can't even get his team in the top 8?
