Probably 17-19. The others depend on team build.

First thought was 5, '15 and '17-'20.

It wouldn’t be a Harden related thread on PC board without NBA4Lyfe popping up

0. Probably neither is winning you a title as the alpha of the team, but give me peak Pippen over peak Harden as a #2 any day of the week. Some of Harden's playoff choke jobs are so unbelievable it's like he does it on purpose. He would have found a way to go ringless on the KD Warriors if it were him in Curry's place.
Also, something that might surprise people. I think when it comes to athleticism, agility, physical attributes and skill I rate LeBron only in the top 50.

Harden and the Rockets win in 2018 in most years of the NBA.

Weird take.

Harden also has comparable numbers to Prime Kobe in the post-season.

Weird take.

Six: 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020.

If you use Pippen's best season, 1992, then you could drop 2016 and 2017, and the answer could be four.

Not sure I take 94 Scottie over 91 or 92 but let's say I do.

I think 2020 clears.

2018 and 2019 are probably better too.

Undecided on the rest.
