re: Imagine thinking Harden is better than Kawhi

Kawhi can’t even close out goat at home with no Durant. No looney, klay hurt, etc etc. cousins out there being well, himself.
Finishes game missing his last however many shots.
And Harden's had HOW MANY OPPORTUNITIES to close out goat? probably 5-6 total
And don't tell me I'm making your point, I know in this comparison in this context they're both tied at this point but Kawhi's OBVIOUSLY the infinitely better defender of the two and has already submitted a postseason for the ages with a clutch shot for the ages. Moreover, he's superior statistically in clutchness than Harden is. Sorry, Boom, facts get you again.

Kawhi got winded after three of four buckets he had to call timeout to get his wind and let GOAT back in it. Hardwn averaged 40 for over half the season. Iron man. Kawhi don’t have the durability and stamina to be on hardens level.

Aight, I’ve given my opinion which means shite and ultimately couldn’t care less who’s better than who and all of that. Y’all have fun debating a never ending topic no matter who is involved. It’s all irrelevant opinions anyway. They are all great so this discussion is fun to talk about but in the end all semantics. Enjoy the finals while they last I guess.

Hardens fg % defense is better than kawhis v these warriors. You musta missed where harden held Kevin to sub 40% fg 2x this series. Harden not playing D is the easiest way to peg someone as not keeping up and still watching video from 5 years ago.
This is all a load of horseshite to distract from the fact that KLaw's been a better defender than Harden his entire career, let me spit some facts out for the uneducated
-KLaw has been named to the NBA All-Defense team 5x in his career, Harden ZERO
-KLaw's won DPOY twice, Harden ZERO
-he's led the league in steals which doesn't happen much for taller players, guys like Steph usually attain those accolades
-Moreover EVIDENCE
LOL actual NBA PLAYERS consider PJ Tucker and fricking rookie Mikal Bridges better defenders than Harden GTFO Boom
-Harden's not even a better defender than Iggy, the 2015 Finals proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt as well as his absence from last year's Conference Finals with the difference he makes on the floor
-FG % defense doesn't mean jack shite without underlying context, a lot of those times Harden would play horrible defense and players miss uncontested layups after blowing by him and good looks mid-range, such a misconception for spin

He has the ring, the clutch stats, and the all-around game though I lost respect for him with the bitch move he pulled in San Antonio, is what it is

Theres no GM in the league that values titles that will take Harden over Kawhi right NOW. And that's important, because it's a what have you done lately league. Kawhi is better in the playoffs.
KLaw's the best player in the game NOW and IK KD's improved as a defender and there's Giannis but KLaw's done everything Jordan and Kobe did in terms of 2-way performance and if he leads the Extinct Reptiles to the first NBA championship won by an international team ever over the defending world champs, that legacy's gonna increase BAR NONE

Kawhi Leonard is averaging 6.8 points in the 4Q this series vs. Warriors.
James Harden averaged 8.8 points in the 4Q of the Rockets series vs. Warriors.
One of these players is considered a closer, one is considered a choker. Both should just be considered fantastic players.

San Antonio was leading GOAT by 25 POINTS GAME 1 ON THE ROAD before ZaZa knocked Kawhi out with the illegal close out and basically ended the Spurs dynasty, not to mention didn't the Spurs defeat Harden's Rockets ON THE ROAD CLINCHING THE SERIES with Harden on the floor and KLaw out, hilarious they give Harden a freebie and he still chokes so characteristic of Beard

One is also an elite defender especially in crunch time which makes him way more valuable. He is also the player who already has a ring & is on the verge of another.
Advantage: Kawhi Leonard

Harden's team lost GAME 6 AT HOME against KD-less Warriors, not many times an opponent loses their best player and the team facing them diminishes in performance compared to the preceding performances that rendered the semis 2-2, is what it is

On how many shots? On what percentage? Were any of those points in garbage time in a game that had all but been decided?

You’re wasting your time. I’m guilty of it, too. You think he doesn’t know very well that Kawhi is the superior player at this point? He’ll cherrypick you to death and step on his own argument’s toes left and right and then he’ll just throw out stupid shite like “you have to think big picture”.

Pretty certain that TOR wins.

It is cute how people ignore hardens elite playoff defense and in the next breathe ignore kawhis lack of durability. If you are only gonna look at playoffs only when judging kawhi then you also gotta judge hardwn and give him Credit for elite playoff defense. True two way player. If you are gonna look at both reg season and playoffs, well the gap widens even more. Bc kawhi ain’t play but 70 games the last two seasons. he just isn’t durable enough to carry a team through a season. Harden is a true hooper. He will slap the shite out the training staff for even thinking to mention “load management”. Can’t keep the guy off the court. You gotta respect that. His peers do. Players mvp 3 of the last 5 years.
With KD out for while we remove him from
Our rankings. With lebron, meh no playoffs no top 3 player. The top three players in nba are now:
Steph
Hardwn
Kawhi
Then lebron. Then Gina. Then,.. AD??

WBB 3 weeks ago, with Durant already hurt and Lebron and harden playing 0 games in the meantime:
"your top 5 is clearly lebron kevin steph harden kawhi"
and again
You’re still reeling from the latest harden playoff choke WBB. Get your trolls together.
Also, imagine being so fixated on trolling an internet message board that you have to argue something so stupid as James harden being a better defender than kawhi Leonard.
