Harden finally getting respect. Top 5 sounds about right.

@Blackthoughts

Come in here and try to discredit another form of media declaring harden a better franchise player than curry. Tell me how you love that.
It is what it is. Plenty of ppl don't agree with their ranking. I'm not mad they have Harden pegged as the better player. It's their list, he's not better than Steph on my list though. He's not better than Melo on my list let alone 10 spots better like ESPN has him.

he doesn't make his teammates better. and an "elite" level PG ranked that high should be able to do such a thing.
What does this even mean? You do realize this is a dreamed up concept right? I don't necessarily agree with the ranking.but you look at the state of his team and it isn't hard to see why they had a record like they did.

lets see....shytty assist #'s, not carrying the team to the playoffs in the east, not getting his teammates easy baskets or setting them up for easy scores. it's not like they have zero talent on that roster.

:what:

Ok let's tackle that first ball-platitude - shytty assist numbers - would his team benefit more (better record last season) from his passing instead of looking to score first? Keep in mind dude can score from EVERYWHERE on the court (efficiently) and was #1 for clutch scoring for majority of last season + if you take away the last month of the 12/13 season he had a 47 FG%.

I swear y'all act like Kobe Achilles injury is just so minor.

Like he just twisted his angle or somthing.

Dude has been in the NBA almost 20 years and had an injury that has ruined many a career.

Yet y'all expet dude to come back to being a top 5- 10 player instantly ?? :what:

Anybody using any numbers or anything from last season from him can get the :camby:

Some of y'all just don't live in reality.:snoop:

I don't think Kyrie deserves to be that high, not because of his talent or this stupid narrative of assist #s/team success, but because it's too early to be crown'n him.

Dude will probably be top 10 before the season's out tho. :yeshrug:

Russ #5.

Kind of surprised at how high Harden is ranked. Harden is underrated on this site but top 4.. need one more year to see if he can claim that.

Players left,

CP3, Harden, LeBron, Durant.
