Westbrook has always been a known good guy off the court, so I don't really pay attention to the LOL WESTBRICK dogshit. Muscle Chestbrick is a OKC legend.
James Harden is tarnishing his legacy more and more as this shit goes on and I also kind of hate that, but that's a stick in your own spokes deal.

The McGrady comparison is apt, although Beard DOES have the MVP.

Also I know james is in character but acting like he was not an offensive supernova for the better part of a decade (bad team or not) is disingenuous.

neither tried on defense, both played a part into various sports related pains of my life.

Who'd have thought Jeff Green would be the second dude from that last Sonics/first young Thunder roster to win a ring? Life moves fast.

Also I know james is in character but acting like he was not an offensive supernova for the better part of a decade (bad team or not) is disingenuous. Kobe Bryant averaged 35.4 ppg in 2006. James Harden averaged 36.1 ppg in 2019. Kobe attempted 27.2 fga per game in 2006. Harden attempted 24.5 fga per game in 2019. Kobe attempted 6.5 3P per game in 2006. Harden attempted 13.2 3P per game in 2019. Kobe attempted 10.2 FT per game in 2006. Harden attempted 11 FT per game in 2019. Dude shot twice as many threes, as many free throws, and almost as many shots as Kobe in an era where scoring was insanely free flowing on a team whose system where stats are always inflated (this goes for all of the 7SOL Suns too). Harden is a fraud. Like I said, basically Tracy McGrady, a good player on a mid team. He's been to the finals ONCE and it was coming off the bench behind Durant / Westbrook.

Y'all are gravely disrespecting TMac. Seriously did people forget how good he was on the Magic and Rockets? Dude was so unlucky with the other stars always being injured, and would have killed it if he had the opportunities that Harden's had.

Fuck out here talking about scoring 82 more points while taking 250 less shots a season ain't shit. If you don't like harden, that's cool, just say you don't like harden. Don't try to bringing math or applied statistics into it.
Lol at the random tmac shots too, like he doesn't do as much or more on those laker teams. Plus we get to imagine what happens to kobe if he'd played for the magic in 2003, bet he doesn't end up dying in helicopter crash...

IIRC TMac was meant to be the 3rd guy for that Magic team with Duncan and Hill, but then Doc Rivers pissed off Duncan and Hill shredded his knee right after.

I think the TMac comparisons are more about accomplishments than stats, tbh. McGrady was a hero ball guy/scoring champ for large chunks of his career just like Harden's been. We can do the "what if..." game with hypothetical healthy Rockets/Magic teams all we want, but McGrady's career is what it is.
Dirk won a ring with shooters and 33-year-old Jason Terry as his 1B. Westbrook won MVP dragging the Thunder to 47 wins and playoffs berth by himself. LeBron dragged the Cavs to the Finals in his fourth season with nothing but scrubs on the roster. TMac couldn't even make it out of the second round * until he sighned mid-season with the Spurs in 2013 (and then retired that summer).
* Edit: my bad, FIRST ROUND not second.

Also, before anybody mentions it, the badass Aaron Brooks/Ron Artest/Shane Battier '09 Rockets team doesn't count because I'm pretty sure McGrady missed most (if not all) that season. He def missed the playoffs though.

Lakers never win a title if Yao and mutombo don't both die in that lakers series.
But what is this about harden lacking accomplishments? Dude won an mvp while being in the conversation for 5 straight years with nobody on his team worth mentioning while running into the end of the spurs dynasty and the prime of the dubs. He's still played 160 playoff games. He's also a 2 ast leader, top 20 all time in asts, and prolly passes rajon rondo(a dude that only passed).
He's accomplished more like 98% of the history of the league. Just say you don't like the dude and don't try to make it about basketball.

For an hombre that doesn't play defense, there's decent chance he ends up 25th all time in steals. Between paul pierce and magic johnson.
