Never said anything about Harden being a top 10 player; My comment was based on the other poster saying Leonard is a top 3 player; I named several players who are better and or just as good...

Harden not overrated just like Westbrook isnt; All players have flaws in their game; no ones perfect...
Even in that regard Harden is not in the discussion. Dude is a glorified Gunner and nothing more. Leonard doesn't score as much because he's a more complete player. Harden is not close to being better than Leonard, he just shoots a lot! Leonard is a 'basketball' player and a great one, Harden is a gunner and nothing else...
Thunder can win this game look at the stats...
They just have to keep attacking fouls 5 OKC to 11 GS...
GS hitting more deep balls but you just gotta do what you do and don't make mistakes
Theres a difference between being flawed and not giving a fuck. I'll give you Westbrook, while to me basketball IQ is critical, at least he plays defense... A flaw is just not being good at something... Harden isn't good and has no interest in playing it so, what he provides is overrated due to the negative aspects of his game. His teams will NEVER win a chip because of the unevenness in his approach...
I love where Leonard games is, don't know how that can transpire with other teams or his current systems giving there's no Tony, Timmy or Aldridge...
But his positive approach and great effort is there's nightly
Disagree; If harden played defense would you say that?? You know how much effort/energy it takes to take and make shots?? Harden is an offensive machine; cant take nothing away from that; Leonard benefits from in a system and playing with other good players; Put him on the Knicks and he wouldnt be doing no where near what hes doing now...
Harden isnt flawed in defense, he just doesnt play it; if Leonard is so valuable, what would happen if you take Parker off that team, what they winning???
Leonard isnt a top 3 player, no where close; Dude isnt even a superstar type player; those are rare and are few in the league; Dude is a better version of Bruce Bowen; its crazy the hype he gets...
The fact that you had the word IF so prominently actually answers your question.... You say offensive machine, I say overrated one dimensional black whole... Having your team literally playing 4 on 5 negates any elite player talk in reference to him...
And when a player disregards basically half of the game, he is one dimensional and overrated in my opinion...
Maybe maybe not; bottom line Leonard isnt a top 3 player; hell I dont think hes a top 10 player either...
I feel ya; I think harden feels like he shouldnt have to play defense when he does all the scoring
; Regardless dude offensive talent is top 5 or higher in the league right now; Maybe the right coach brings the defense out of him
probably not though
As an offensive talent, we agree... Overall nah....I feel ya; I think harden feels like he shouldnt have to play defense when he does all the scoring
Mavs so weak man
Please eliminate us from playoff contention
Please eliminate us from playoff contention
I have my opinion, you got yours
Truth be told there's only 3 to 5 players that can change any sad team...
Place such player on the lakers,76ers, and what would u have....
Lebron
CP3
---------
I'm Not 100% on Cheat code & Westbrook(I'm around 95%)
---------
Wade can round out my top 5(just for old times)
I feel these cats have/had the ability but just can't/couldn't get it together.
Maybe the difference is thinking vs knowing...
Rondo
Dwill
More what $$$
What happened to rings?
OMG.
Who wants a piece of them..... A lot of people bought the hype though. I remember dudes on here talking about they gonna compete.
Thunder about to get ran out the gym by the Warriors bench.......
Embarrassing man. Now PArsons about to play himself into a max contract with Orlando. Ya'll think shit funny now wait until the little talent you do have don't come back.
Wow. They got Deandra Jordan in a wig and dress. SMH.
Bron will buy Pooh ho ass with his Nike money alone.
You're right with Bron and CP3.. KD belongs there too imo.
Wade is about 8 years removed from that status, nd Rondo and DWill never belonged in the discussion. Rondo stunk before Doc, Danny, and McHale surrounded him with HOF'ers. DWill was exposed as a system PG once he left Sloan.
Just didn't get it from KD like that...that's just me...
Take Westbrook away and would u have the same success if KD was away like last year...
Rondo and Dwill should be equals to Cp3 but they ain't that's why I mention them...they have it but just don't understand....we've seen Rondo get triples damn near everytime his name came up in trade talks...and will the team to win...just it was nightly...
Dwill's body acted up and pockets got heavy which I think fucked it up...
Wade was only on the list as an old timer
Normally that's where GS takes control in the 3rd
nice one
