That makes him a completely different player. I'm really not a fan of Harden's game...or should I say it's not really that unique. The best comparison would probably be Cat, crafty scorer, solid passer, solid ball handler, solid shooter, explosive in bunches. Cat was a far better on-the-ball defender though.
Curry is definitely not them same player he was 3 years ago. He's really improved in creating his own shot, and the quickness he can get his shot off. That has taken him to another level. However, he still needs to develop his passing ability if he doesn't want to morph into the prototypical combo guard. He should at least get to 7.5 as a good PG, 8.5 if he really wants to be special.
