no you gotta use your brain a little when applying things i've said to situations that fit. he does a really bad job at it..really gotta just use a little common sense.



your application is:

1. Make Rockets look good
2. Make everyone else look bad

How much more difficult is that to see

"what have you done for me lately" applies to players who haven't won multiple 1st team all nba selections.. those players are already established. what have you done for me lately applies to a player who everyone thought was the next big thing bc of his season last year but this year his team can't even get to better than 10th in their own conference..taht's what have you done for me lately. Can't really be applied to Harden if you have a lick of sense.

So players who have two or more 1st team all-nba are above criticism.

I knew this would get back to AD, you're so pelisessed.



Guess Steph Curry isn't above criticism, he's only been All-NBA 1st team once in his career.. That 1/10 3pt shooting, so bad.

Same with Blake Griffin, Russell Westbrook, Paul George, and Carmelo Anthony since they've never been 1st team, ever.


Harden's career > Griffin, Westbrook, George, and Anthony careers

Yes.

there's a little metric I like to use called MVP award shares that does a good job of ranking players careers while they are still active


Harden .815
Griffin .540
Westbrook .282
Geroge .026
Anthony .453

Yea but finding that one exception and wanting to harp on it is so you it's what you do. "Who cares if that top 25 list is damn strong I'm gonna make an issue of it because I think the 24th ranked team should be ranked 23". that's you that's what you do.

ROSE IS ranked higher though. He's not misapplying anything.

Um...when peli-fans say AD is top 5, you're like yeah no he isn't let me inform you with my big massive brain and NBA knowledge. He's 6 or 7th at worst. How is that any different?

You make a statement, I said take statement and show you're wrong. Not my fault you didn't think two steps ahead.

It's disrespectful to players who have done more to rank Davis above them.

Gotta earn these kinda things over the course of your career. Can't be a top 5 player when you haven't even won a playoff game when other players out there have lead their teams deep in the playoffs.
