    Someone needs to teach Shannon some math. Don't look at his fg% but look at his EFG%. Threes are worth more than twos so jacking up a bunch of them is efficient if you can hit 39% of them....

    Those guys have their own show somehow and they want to talk about being inefficient? No one knows in inefficiency like these two _____ heads. They were reading wrong stats! Those guys suck.

    Skip Bayless isn't pro anyone, he's just anti LeBron. He will take any position that is anti Lebron. He was calling KD the best player in the NBA, but now he's going to jump on the Harden is better than LeBron narrative.

    All of these talking heads share the same trait: they will pivot when the narrative gets saturated.

    Talking Head A: "James Harden is overrated"
    Talking Head B: "James Harden isn't an MVP candidate"
    Talking Head C: "James Harden only shoots 3s and lives at the foul line"
    Talking Head D: "James Hard is ranked 38th best player on my list"
    Talking Head A: "James Harden...to me, is severely underrated"

    Do you think Harden can surpass Jordan this season?

    Harden's average of 34.8 ppg is over a 40 game span. He would need to average 39.6 the rest of the way.

    Jordan benefits from coming into the league a starter

    Kobe and Harden both built themselves up from the bench .
    Remove those years. . .i suspect it is closer
