Harden is a top 3 player

[euroleague]

He barely lost in game 7 without Chris Paul. His team had no depth, so gassed out - and got obvious bad red calls against them to steal the momentum - same as Cavs.

I don’t think KD is as good of a scorer and DEFINITELY isn’t as good of a passer as Harden. Curry is as good, but is often injured.

AD is also better than KD - but is AD better than Harden? His defensive numbers are pretty average, and he’s not as good offensively.

Harden is top 3 now: Yes or No?

[Lalouie]

because he's not in the finals

[rotty]

I would say Lebron, Curry and Durant are all better

[Young gun 6]

When healthy and taking playoffs into account, right now at this point of their careers:

1) Lebron


2) Curry
3) AD
4) KD
5) Harden

his team had no depth? capella, gordon, ariza, paul, ryan anderson, tucker, nene, gerald green, joe johnson... that's a 10-man rotation. sure take paul out for his injury.. but i wouldnt say his team had no depth... rockets lost game 7 cause they went 0-27 from 3s as a 3pt shooting team.. hit 2 or 3 of those and they win..

[joeyAdaMan]

Harden was awful for most of the playoffs and really just got worse as they went on....I think he could've surpassed Durant if he had a great playoff run...but he didn't and KD has had great playoff runs....I'd even take KD's play in THIS playoffs over Harden and it's supposed to be Harden's year....he's just not a big game player and at 28 he's had plenty of time now to prove otherwise

[r0drig0lac]

1- Lebron
2/3- Durant/Kawhi
4/5- Davis/Giannis
6- Curry

[Mister Ze]

He’s the 4th best

[Unbiased hater]

He is Top 4 player and has chance to surpass Curry in the future

Ryan Anderson? Nene is injured. Gerald Green?! What kind of name dropping is that. JJ played 5 minutes

PJ Tucker is old and can’t shoot well.

Harden / Capella / Gordon
Vs
KD / Curry / Klay / Draymond

Harden better be better than one of curry KD for this game to be that close with bad calls...

[udfa]

LeBron
Kawhi
Steph
AD
KD

When healthy of course.

Nene wasn't injured, just getting exploit on defense
Anderson return from injury and never found his rhythm back in playoff, also getting exploit on defense
Mbah a Moute lost his confident on his shoulder, can't even make a layup
ISO Joe is washed up

[spicy6]

What do you mean no depth? All those guys shoot and play defense with the exception of anderson that team is the definition of depth.

Didn’t even see Nene on the bench. Point still stands

With Moute healthy and CP3 healthy this team would win it all this year. Without those 2... major depth issues

[RB34]

It depends what you value more, personally I would take AD & Kawhi.

[RGM_SU]

Harden is too one-dimensional to be considered a top-3 player. If he's already saving up energy by coasting on defense, he needs to expand his offensive game beyond just jacking up threes and driving to the rim for free throws, otherwise he'll just continue to struggle shooting the ball in the playoffs like always. It was comical to see him launching and missing all those dumb threes with a guy in his face in game 7 against Golden State.

Harden in his last three playoff runs is 97-331 (29.3%) on threes. That's hideously bad.

[Pinkyring]

Top three offensive player yes but u cant win a ring with harden as your best player

[RGM_SU]

Top three offensive player yes but u cant win a ring with harden as your best player

He may not even be a top three offensive player if you look at his playoff performances with the Rockets...

[Arteezy]

People that thinks that Harden is better than Curry needs to stop watching highlights. Curry is the alpha and the omega of the Warriors.

[alebaba]

I would say Lebron, Curry and Durant are all better

How is Durant and Curry better, they barely beat the Rockets even with Cp3 out. Curry and Durant is not playing all that great in the playoff either. Warrior fan excuse for the whole series going to 7 was because of Iggy but some how Durant and Curry is the top 3 player in the Nba. lol
