NBA Thread

If they are, it aint by much. Harden has turned into one of the best players in the NBA and Howard is the best center in the NBA by far. (and one of the best overall)

Thats fine. I won't argue if you feel that way. Bottom line is though the order of NBA players is:

Lebron
(huge gap)
Durant
(gap)
rest of nba

For that reason alone the Thunder are much better.
 
You are going to look so bad with Reggie Jackson. But, you will never admit you said anything negative about him.

Whats wrong with Thabo/Collison. They are perfect role players for a championship team.

You can find any random bench player and call him the perfect role player on a championship team.

Mike Miller!
Juwon Howard!
 
Fair — it was the poster who keeps calling himself a pussy who called Houston "overhyped" and has been denigrating their roster.

I agree that Durant is better than Harden, but I'm not sure it's by so much that it makes the duo definitively better than Harden+Howard if and only if Howard plays like he did in Orlando (as opposed to the turd-out-there version from Los Angeles) — because Orlando-vintage Howard is definitely superior to Westbrook.

I think HOward was always overrated. You can't rely on him for anything on the offensive side of the ball. I know I am the biggest RW supporter but that guy doesn't get enough credit. He dominates every basketball game he plays in.

Harden was just a role player, right?

Howard isn't even a top 10 player in the NBA, let alone one of the best overall. He's a liability late in games.

Sure thing buddy. Sure thing. Keep thinking that Thabo (who shut down TP in the WCF in 2012) while shooting a solid percentage from 3 and Collison who defends big men exceptionally well and is skilled offesnively is crap.
 
Lmao

Lin put up 13/6 with 1.6 steals per game

Asik was what, 11 and 11? But now all of a sudden he isn't going to play a lot? What the LULZ?

You odn't think Asiks minutes are going to get cut? Why do you think he wanted a trade?
 
Lin sucks, awful defensively, they are better off starting Beverely

Hell, they tried to trade him but he's awesome!!

Where us Asik gonna play if Howard starts?

As a backup, 10-15 minutes a game?

Why were the Rockets better off defensively with Lin on the court? Why did he have a higher efg% than the person he guarded?

You are ridiculous. Howard dominates more defensively than Westbrook has ever "dominated" a game offensively.

Again, I think he's overrated (though he's improved to the point that he's not nearly as overrated as he used to be). However, I'd still easily take Chris Paul or Derrick Rose over him, and I still think he plays too out-of-control too often.

Yes, Harden was a role player. He's improved over time and is one of the best now.

STFU about Howard. It just makes you look dumb.

You mean the injured Tony Parker?

Asik is going to start.....Howard/Asik/Parsons/Harden/Lin

Please address Giles point about how you said Asik was SLIGHTLY worse than Howard, now he is trash. Help us.

Westbrook gives more than offense. But, just like most everybody else you dont' understand how good RW is because all you see are his facial expressions and the fact that he shoots as much as Durant. Keep believing what you want.

Howard is not a good offensive player. Maybe in the up and down system that the rockets will play he will get more dunks but other than that you can't rely on him. Especially in the last 5 minutes you might as well not have him on the floor.

He was never a role player and its a joke that you still can't admit that you were wrong. Harden was never a role player.

He wouldn't have the same role he does now if he stayed.

Cuz I'm right, he's not a championship player. Can't hit free throws, not much of an offensive game, whines too much, among other things.

He's trash if hes a backup.

Lol if they play Asik next to Howard, no spacing.
