It's Durant and it's not really close. Harden is really good but Durant is way better

Yeah. You're probably right. His shot will never improve.

I'm just saying that of course Kobe shot better when the Lakers won it all. That's why they won it all.

The Rockets didn't win it all last year. I would expect that Harden would shoot better on a more competitive team. It's not like we are talking about ball hog Carmelo here.

I know it is a small sample size. Let's bump this thread at the all-star break when he is shooting 46.1%, aka the magic Kobe number.

I'm just still trying to wrap my head around how anyone can think that Harden is better than KD.

Using your same 3 game sample size, the Heat are on pace to win just 27 games and finish 55 games behind the 76ers in the Eastern Conference this year

Okay, since that sample size is so small, I guess we should just use Harden's career in OKC.

A bunch of you guys thought Harden would be a bust last year, and now he is a consensus top 5 player. I remember all of the laughing at the Rockets in the trade thread.

He had such an offensive load last year that he was simply too exhausted to play defense well


Jordan, Kobe and LeBron all had/have that same problem!

Yes. And all of them made defensive improvements in their careers. I hope that you guys set goals in your lives, not just thinking you will be the same shitty person every day for the rest of your life.

And by the way Kobe is the most overrated defender ever.

Bump when Harden finishes higher in the MVP race and shoots your Kobe number.

I have said multiple times in this thread that I don't care that people think Durant is better than Harden. He might be. I just care that people don't think it's even close.

MVP voting may not be your best measurement tool. The addition of Dwight takes some away from Harden and Westbrook's injury makes Durant more important.

I think a GM poll of who you'd rather start your team with would be interesting.
