They did dump all of their true sports people for diverse looking people. Its no surprise that some of the jamokes on ESPN have no idea what they are talking about. I've heard Deshaun Watson called Desean Jackson about 5 times on sportscenter this week. Blows my mind.
dahntay jones flat out said stephen curry wasnt a top 10 player. And espn flipped there **** and kelly oubre was asked after a loss to the warriors when curry had like 40 againist the wizards, was curry the best player that the wizards had faced all year, and he said he said with emphasis no. It was Harden, after he said Harden the reporter cut the interview short
Maybe part of the issue is that Harden quit, in an elimination game, at home with the opposing teams two best players out. He flat out quit. How high can you rank any player who quit. Also please save me the he wAs tired excuse.
Durant is ranked too high. Any really really really good prolific scorer in NBA history would have dominated on that team.
top 2 vs there top 2. Of course its gonna come down to rockets vs warriors in the WCF now, but how do we have an advantage. Houston has 2 extra defensive players now. Whats going to keep draymon green from going off, NENE? Do you think capela can hold his ground vs green? Green is the possible x factor, and that of Durant going off. I think this team now could take the warriors of the old before durant.
This is going to sound like a 180 from my previous position regarding Harden but being a great two way player in this league is significantly overrated. Hence why Kawhi is one of the most overrated players in the league. Great individual defense isn't any where near as important as individual great offense especially if that great offense includes great playmaking for teammates. In today's NBA, help defense is more important. Team defense and working as a cohesive unit with great communication is more important than great individual defense. Everyone switches now a days. Coaching is far more important to defense hence why arguably the greatest coach of all time, Pop, has his teams consistently elite regardless of roster talent. Kawhi with a mediocre coach wouldn't be the Superstar unanimous too 5 player he is today. Sure indiviudal great defense can win you some clutch plays sprinkled through out the season but indiviudal great offense can singlehandedly carry a team. Pat's amazing defensive capabilities can't single handedly carry a team to the playoffs. James Harden's indiviudal offense can do exactly that and has done it before.
Overrated? He won a ship with a 37 or 38 year old Duncan.....and other 31+ old ex stars. Against a 3 superstar juggernaut, something the 3 stars of OKC never did. I cannot call someone overrated that was a team captain of his team and not just some starter. Yeah sure, the Spurs are not the same with LM Aldridge, that does not mean Kawhi isn't as effective as he once was and guy is only 25 yrs old. Harden has to show he can play his amazing Offense consistently in the Playoffs against the best teams and not quit. Until then everything is moot IMO.
I like it. Eggball Texans are irrelevant and rightly so. Deal with it. Now if they disrespect a Rockets player by miscalling his name, then I would blow them up
Who are we to comment on anything lol on a bbs? you have your answer, no need to get worked up over nothing.
It's funny that you single out posters like you know them right? I dun nothing to you yet you always take it personal because I talk about flaws of certain players you absolutely adore. Hey, I am just one guy out of thousands? Am I the personification of all the other who holds our players accountable in the most important games of the season? Always mentioning me in some reference to other posters that I know little of. Borderline disrespectful.
I think the fact that harden who is basically a two time MVP at this point is #8 and Draymond is #10 shows how much of a joke this is
