Ya'll nikkas love overrating Klay :mjlol: Harden and CP3 are levels above Klay. He's nothing more than a rich man's Danny Green
ehh, Klay can't finish at the rim or create for himself/others, but he's the best two way 2 in the league and a prolific shooter

arguing Chef/Klay >>> CP3/Harden isn't overrating anyone, especially considering Pringles is hardly gonna ever play them together.

If this was CP3 of 5 years ago I'd say yes, I think he's lost a step judging off the Utah series this year though.

On paper? Sure. If you glanced at stat sheets and saw these two names at first glance, you'd believe you'd have a problem.

Reality? A fading, injury prone PG who's approaching his mid 30s and plays an outdated style of basketball for his position is teaming with a Superstar who has a habit of disappearing in big moments, needs the ball in his hands MORE than the PG to be productive, plays little to no defense due to being the main offensive engine for his team since going solo, and both have the stigma of being career losers due to various shortcomings in the post season.

Yes true they haven't played a game together, but their styles of play along with a few other factors makes it look iffy.

Are nikkas really clowning a proven champion to hype up CP3 whos played with 2 other Allstars had a high profile coach and won nothing. Do you value stat padding and losing or quality team play and winning?

This is a disaster waiting to happen especially with the way their cheese grater personalities ruin chemistry. Every year there are reports of how much CP3 and Hardens teammates hate them. Not to mention if CP3 leaves after one season you gave up all those assets for nothing.

Congrats you got the most flopping, referee aruging, non clutch team in the league. I'm sure it's gonna be exciting to watch these two shoot 30 free throws every night.
