I used to think you were just trolling




But I’ve come to the conclusion that you HAVE TO BE james harden

There’s no way another man could possibly spend as much time as you do defending this dude… it truly is mind blowing

when compared to Steph, the numbers paint a pretty clear pictures.

You gotta be honest w yourself and realIze that you have seen less than 5% of what these guys have done at the NBA level. You get bits and pieces here and there, but compared to the whole body of work, you have seen more or less nothing. That goes for pretty much everyone. The numbers see every minute, every possession, and aren’t biased.

And the result is clear. Don’t shoot the messenger now.

The numbers are pretty clear - last night, Steph outpaced Harden in points, rebounds, assists, blocks, steals, turnovers, FG%, 3P%, FT%, and TS%, and he did all of that playing three less minutes than Harden did.

yes I get it. You are looking at 1 game, I am looking at the cumulative of 100s and 100s.

Me = big sample size
Yours = couldn’t be smaller

All of these pundits are so bewildered as to why Harden is a shell of himself so far. He's not getting to the line 20 times a game with his bullshite foul calls.

His free throw rate is nearly identical to what it was last year in BKN.

I know you know this But pundits should not be taken seriously. You can go ojt and find the data for yourself very easily.

Ask any GM in the the league whom they would rather have, it would be Curry and it would not close.

GMs love data. And the data shows a clear winner.

I just looked. Lowest number of makes and attempts from the FT line since 2010-11. A nearly 30% drop in free throw attempts compared to last year is in no way "almost."

You choosing the wrong stat to look at. Free throw rate is what you want to look at. His shot attempts are down, he is pass first now a days. That’s what nash asks of him.

Which is absolutely ridiculous for someone of James's scoring ability, especially without Kyrie. He needs to do more than what he has for the Nets this season.

So that means they want Steph over Harden. If Steph got the calls that Harden gets, he would average 40+ points per game. Steph has a 62 point game; does Harden? Steph has 37 games of nine threes or more; does Harden? Harden has the record for most three-point misses in a game though (1-17 LOL).

He doesn't have that ability. He's not a creative point guard, he doesn't pass anyone open.

He has typically gotten his assists off of drawing in defenses then passing to open shooters.

he is the best “pocket pass” in the league. He got a guy who can’t do nothing but set a screen and roll ( capela) 20 million a year.

ESPN stat maven Kevin peloton just released his WARP for the season to date. Harden is #4 in the league. If you didn’t know any better you would think the rules changes has impacted his effectiveness.
