I mean, I understand the argument, but do you really want to limit minutes for a guy who averages 29 points per game?

I'm reminded by Edgar Allen Poe's The Sphinx. You get so caught up in the details that you lose the big picture.

Interesting, I'm reminded of Claude Monet's work. Looks great from a distance but becomes a muddled mess upon close inspection.

Good ole vengeance dropping knowledge.

One of the best players in the league... not good enough to be a starter.

In fairness he didn't say 15-20 minutes, but it was RonBurgundy who thought this may be an idea worth exploring.

you dudes don't know shite about basketball seriously


James harden is no fricking better tha Mani,McHale, Schrempf, Michael Cooper, Kukoc lol, were all 6 men. Harden is no better than any of those in his / their primes.


yes he "scores 29 a game" well frick he shots the ball 20 times a game i would fricking hope so lol. you guys act like he's the most efficent mofo on the planet or some shite. he's a fricking 43% shooter and a 36% shooter from 3. those aren't fricking world renowned numbers. He had one year he shot 50% at OKC other than that never came close. Kukoc had 3 years straight where he shot 50%, 49% and 48% what do you think happens if you let him shoot the ball 20 times a game instead of 12 the year he shot 50%


yes, ball dominant motherfrickers like Harden, Brandon Knight, Brandon Jennings, Jamal Crawford, who all play best with the ball in their hands and are volume scorers that don't play defense or pass are best in a 6th man role. I don't know how hard that is for you to understand.

This is like the EXACT same statline as Kobe. 45% and 33% for his career. Is Kobe's offensive game overrated? Kobe is a way better defender so I don't think he's some overrated dude but come on those offensive numbers are elite

read this article on most efficient scorers in NBA history. Then compare James points per shot to the list it's laughable he blows #1 out of the water. Most efficient scorer, ever?

One post in the game thread proved this about yourself

Then why don't those other guys score 28 a game. And as far as passing Harden averaged 8 assists this year. And I'm not a Harden fan at all

I thought Boom had the "worst NBA poster" title all locked up for this season, but I'll be damned if vengeanceofrain hasn't come on lately with, well, a vengeance, I suppose

These threads lately are getting absurd on both ends. From Harden coming off the bench to me being an idiot for saying Harden isn't as good as Curry, lebron, or Wade in their title years.

I first noticed him during the NFL season when he said Mallett was a good NFL quarterback, he just hadn't been given a chance. At the time he posted that, he was ranked 33rd in all relevant QB stats.

And, unbelievably, it's gone downhill from there.

I'd say he and John Wall. Baron Davis was really overrated as well.
