I'll bite.

1. James Harden is a very good defender, especially this year.

2. When evaluating player, you should always consider both ways. I don't understand the distinction of being a "better two way player." Since the game is played both ways, you are either a better player or you aren't.

I imagine that if the majority of GMs had their pick, they would take Harden. I also imagine that Klay Thompson could not be the guy for the Rockets or really anyone. He is perfect in that #2 role next to most skilled guard in basketball.
