And yet Mchale and Dwight been the scapegoats

Lol @ acting like it's his fault their record is so bad. He also averages more assists than the MVP. The real problem is that without Harden they often don't know how to score when it matters. See the last game against GSW for an example. They lost the game soon as he sat out the first few minutes of the fourth. His isolation plays are often more reliable and successful than the other guys trying to run a play by themselves.

Harden does actually deserve some blame for how their record is: his decision making, shot selection and tendency to stop the ball on offense has been less than stellar, but mostly from being absolutely piss poor on the defensive end. And LOL at mentioning he averages more assists than Curry, as if i) he doesn't play nearly four more minutes ii) he doesn't have a worse AST:TO ratio iii) Curry doesn't create more points for his team through hockey assists/getting the ball out of his hands early enough before the defense has a chance to set iv) Harden isn't on pace to having the most turnovers in NBA history.

Curry's assists mean absolutely nothing. They shoot at such a high percentage that literally anyone on the coli could average 4 or 5 assists on that team. You just throw the ball to anyone and they score it. Harden's passing is superior to Curry's and it's not particularly close.

If you wanna talk about extra minutes, Curry isn't even that far behind in turnovers. And it's not that big a deal. People don't really know how to put the stat in context of how a player has to play on a team. Many great players average a lot of turnovers.

The levels of :troll:in this statement is beyond comical, even for you.

Yet Harden's on pace for the most turnovers EVER in a season. Yes it's partly to do with there not being enough competent ball-handlers on the team, but it's also partly to do with him being careless with the ball, his limited skillset and poor decision making.

And still it doesn't matter breh. Most turnovers ever. No one cares. Still had a way more positive impact than negative. One turnover per game extra does not determine your team's record.

I'm glad you concede Harden's the better passer of the two at least.

Man Westbrook is amazing he does like everything on the court

Thats the only reason why I can't make up my mind between Kris Dunn and Buddy Hield.....Yeah Hield is a great shooter but Kris Dunn can easily become westbrook his first year in the league. He has that fukking mindset.

Harden's also on pace to break the record for most turnovers in a season too. For what it's worth.

:blessed:


@QCHspencer @QCHblog not surprised. Cliff history with him is there. Houston would want Al expiring, Frank, and a 1st.

id be shocked if they get frank. it'll most likely be zeller

That's worth doing even if only for a season. :yeshrug:
