But collectively? So you're saying the sum of the Rockets' parts are greater than the whole? Would that be because Harden makes his teammates look good?

Youre the only person Ive heard say they think the Thunder's players without Westbrook are better than the Rocket's players without Harden. I dont know how you can say that.

1 i didn't say that
2 there people on the other page saying that

**jtoler** · 04-12-17, 01:37 PM

My mistake IBY, thought I was quoting you, my bad.

Learn English.

Lol stop, I read rm18 quote and assumed you said it without really checking the name since youve posted mostly in favor of Rockets.

**IBetYou** · 04-12-17, 01:48 PM

Ok thought you were referring to the quote you put up haha

Regardless how much I dislike the guy, Russell Westbrook should get all #1 place votes. Harden is great offensively, but not a threat defensively. Also rarely crashes the boards but lets the rebounds come to him.

For LeBron, the incredible has become mundane.

Marc Gasol: Stats are killing basketball. The most important things don't show up in statistics

Hear hear. This is what I've been saying. Nice to hear it from the ultimate glue-guy.

I don't disagree at all, but theres two problems that will always be present in all sports, large bonuses are driven by statistical accomplishments and the egos of superstars.

Look at Mo Harkless, he just pocketed $500,000 because he shot over 35% from 3 range this year. Only problem, had he missed one more 3-ball, he would have sank to 34.91% and not got the money, so he just didn't attempt another 3. He went games without shooting the 3 ball, didn't care if it was to the detriment of his team or not, he just wanted the money. Can't say I would've done it any differently

This is great. First Harden vs Westbrook and now Thomas vs Wall.

just think about it, the west has 3, the east has one, the east voters will vote for lebron while there will be a mix
for the other 3.
