Ya, I absolutely believe he could be the best player on a contending team. He needs another star just like all the other stars, but that is where Favors comes in.
Thats what makes OKC so unbelievably good. They have a top two player on their team, who probably is the best closer in the game now. And they can turn the ball over to Harden and he can close anybody out. I disagree that he is the 3rd best player on his team. Harden in my opinion is better than Westbrook. I am a big fan of Westbrook too. But Harden is a far smarter player. If I was OKC and I had to choose, it would be Harden. Thats why I kind of think OKC wont just let him go for nothing. I want us to go for him, but I think its a slim chance. OKC would be stupid to not match whatever he is offered, pay the tax for a bit and then try to trade him or Westbrook later for some picks or something. Who know though what OKC can afford to do.
Watch how OKC leans on Harden at the end of games in the playoffs. They put the ball in his hands, and they tell Westbrook to step back and watch.
Harden is every basketball purist dream come true. He is as crafty as a player I have ever seen. One of my favorite players ever so far. And he is still so young
Ill take that little terrorist on my team any day.
Harden is all the hype and more
Tony Parker
Dirk
Carmello (Yes, he is still better than Harden even though his retarded trade demands landed him with a crappy fit team where he has too much control)
Kevin Love
Blake Griffin
Andrew Bynum (when he stays healthy like he did this year)
Pau Gasol (When he isn't pissed at Kobe for being a ****)
Off the top of my head.
franKNN here to report it may in deed be him. we report, you decide:--
The proof... is in the picture.
Yes, I work(ed) for EA.
I believe it is possible, I just don't want to overhype him. His efficiency is amazing this year, scoring 17 ppg on 10 shots, but can he keep up that efficiency when he goes to 16-18 shot per game? Or will he always be better off in a Ginobili role? Ginobili, even in his prime years, only had 13 attempts a game as his highest mark.
Second best, but sure.

Hell ya he could keep it up. This isnt a conversation like if we are wondering can Millsap play against starters. Not even close. Look who he has on his team. Freaking Durant and Westbrook. There just isnt enough shots to go around.
You think he is a top 10 player as of right now? That should mean OKC should run away with the title in a landslide.

One thing I am interested in finding out, is how the new CBA will change how FA's view Utah. We can see it effecting the "richer" teams already. Dallas let Barea and Chandler walk. LA gave up Odom for nothing. I know Utah has had trouble in the past attracting FA's, but if Harden is out there, and he can only get a max from Utah or some other small market team...I want to see who they would choose.

You can argur with any of those players, but I would say right now Harden is better
Blake Griffin has a ways to go as far as how cerebral he is. It would be hard not to pick him over Harden, but right now Harden is more championship worthy. Blake is going to be great but has a lot to learn
Dirk is good but he has so many weaknesses too. That championship was a complete team effort. Dallas was foolish to blow it up and let Tyson and JJ go. They had a nice set up that was very dynamic and covered all the basis. Dirk without those guys isnt going anywhere. He is a poor rebounder and shot blocker for his size. He needs a lot around him to hide all his flaws.
Carmello has the talent but just not a smart dude. He is a very selfish stupid player. Harden> Melo anyday
Pau Gasol is a roller coaster. One minute he is flake, the next he is the best big man in the league. I like his game though. He is just getting older and isnt as good as he was. Still take Harden over him
Love is good but seems to lack dominance. I cant figure out how he can rack up so many stats and his team sucks. I guess he needs more help but I thought he had enough to get to the playoffs. Im still trying to figure him out. I know that if you put Dwight on the Wolves they would be easily in the playoffs(Love not on the team). So he isnt on that level yet. I dont know if he is strong enough or athletic enough to be.
Andrew Bynum? No. Too dumb. He isnt going to be leading a team anywhere. Hebis just big. He has an ok game, but not great. The rule is you take the big over the guard, but not this time.

I am picking OKC to win the championship. I think they are going to sweep everybody in the West. Maybe SA wins a game. Miami would be a tough series, but now they might be without Bosh. I think OKC takes it. They just have too much. Miami does have Lebron and Wade so its not like it would be an upset if Miami won though.
OKC 2012 NBA champs.
I think OKC has a very good chance to win it all but you vastly underestimate S.A. That will be a hard fought series as well. 6-7 games.
I am looking forward to watching OKC skull hump Duncan. Spurs have no one to stop Durant, Harden, or Westbrook, but the Thunder have position defenders to cover Santonio's aging strengths.
That just takes it out on the players and fans. They had nothing to do with the OKC move. Yea it sucks Seattle got shafted and I would like to see a team there again but that wont stop me from cheering for OKC to win it all now that Utah and Memphis are out.
