Sure, but you can't just ignore that he's been a guard in the nba for 3 years and had 2 nba offseasons, you can't act like he was a rookie, be...
Everyone else on the team who matters was a rookie, of course a rookie will get more of a pass then a 3rd year guy. Believe me, if jalen is...
Talent is what you’re born with, it doesn’t change. You can improve your shooting, dribbling, etc. but if you suck at shooting, you can’t become...
just curious, why do you think anyone wants him to fail? How would the rockets be better if he fails vs develops into an allstar? For me the...
This makes no sense, your talent level doesn't change. You can improve different skills, but your talent level is what it is.
I couldn’t care less about dd or anyone specific (other then a few clowns i have muted). It just blows my mind how clueless some people can be....
Ya, harden at 22 was already playing at an allstar level and put up 66% TS! Kpj was a horrific 3rd year guy who has been god awful for 3 years
Because he’s a rockets legend and it’s a massive insult to him
Who the hell cares? People compare randos to jordan, hakeem all the time. People predraft compared hasheem thabeet to hakeem, do you still take it...
Nobody is talking about houston harden, that’s obviously light years beyond anything kpj can ever be. I am only talking about 3rd year okc harden...

The reps need to go to jalen and jabari, those are the 2 that matter most in the long run
ya, and getting fired 2 years later
Huh? that's not remotely what i said. I said he wasn't a good nba player LAST season, not that he won't be THIS season. I fully expect him to be a...
But my assumption is that you watch almost no games, correct? There’s 1230 games every season, how many can you possibly even watch.
So if you think that all of the stats and metrics are worthless, how would you give him (or anyone) a proper rating? Surely you don’t want all 82...
Talent and performance are very different. He was a 19 year old rookie guard. Those types of players will almost never be top 100 nba players as...
Are you even sure kpj is better on defense then harden was that season? The DBPM favores harden a lot. Obviously the gap on offense is so massive...
Ya harden would likely struggle early on and pick it up like jalen did
I still don’t think rookie year harden would have been AS bad as last year kpj but as a rookie maybe only slightly better. The 3rd year comparison...
