But why would Harden need to be a 3 and D if he can penetrate and already has a ton of offense? I'm speaking on the fact that Tony Allen is primarily a defensive player and just having that skill alone is becoming archaic. W/ the way they running the #'s up scoringwise teams need those kinda guys just so they don't get washed by better teams
My point is two way players don’t grow on trees. I also think people confuse 3&D players with players who shoot threes only. I will agree that having a guy who just plays defense means almost nothing because defense is damn near outlawed.

Lessons: discuss trades with Jazz, see who they gonna take, take the player and back out of the trade. :troll:


:russ: All facts....Another team I know that has to be salty as hell is the Nets...While they likely weren’t taking Kuzma the fact that he’s the 2nd best rookie this season and was taken with their pick has to make them feel some type of way.

No. I get that 2 way players don't grow on trees but Harden's offense is a way bigger contribution to his team than Allen's defense is to his team. I'm not saying that Allen needs to become a real 2 way player, I'm just stating that that ONE skill (3's) could help add a few points onto the board. Plus youre comparing two different grades of player. Harden is the leader of his team, he facilitates and carries the offensive load for them. Allen is a bench player who only has to worry about his matchup.

Notice how coli brehs can't make an argument without bringing up race.
Just point out the flaw and keep it moving brehs.
You make it seem like there are no black NBA writers.


Good point. And the board that we come to daily wasn't created by a white guy.

Just let them cook
