But he has KD, Ibaka, Kanter, Adams:comeon:


Harden has had no one until Beasley got there.


Jason Terry's geriatric ass is getting over 20 mpg for us:flabbynsick:
at what point do you stop qualifying things tho:yeshrug: Better teammates, if they would have caught this, or done that is pointless.

should have been a "Blame Morey" thread then.

Its not Morey's fault that Russ turns the ball over at a higher rate than Harden at a lower usage rate tho:manny:

0.3 more turnovers to get 4.3 more assists...THAT is what you're going to try to drive home and make a point(that will mean nothing in the end because the court of public opinion isnt going to get behind you on this one)

Harden is the face for turnovers this season:yeshrug:

He's a hell of a player and a lot is on his shoulders but you can keep trying to get folks behind you if you want. its a waste of keystrokes tho.

if you raised Harden's usage would his turnovers go up as well?

so put Russ and Harden at similar usage, Russ maybe average a slightly more turnovers more(whatever 0.3 would translate to due to the bump) but significantly more assists.

He'd still be considered a turnover machine.

Harden gets 6 more points per game nearly erasing that assist advantage. :jbhmm:


This board jerks their cocks to highlights of Rockets losses so I'm not trying to get anyone behind me:pachaha:

Just raising awareness that Harden isn't the only one turning it over at an alarming rate:jawalrus:

Harden is at a near historic usage rate, there is no raising his, but if you bring Russ up to similar usage rate and same minutes then Russell blows the turnover record out of the water, 15 more turnovers than harden :manny:


The point here is that no one says anything about the fact that Russell turns the ball over at a near Harden rate.

Tell Dwight to get his shyt together and Morey to get him more help:yeshrug:
Harden carried the team last year to 2nd seed on his own.

This year Terry and Brewer (Bickerstaff loves playing this mfer) just held him down :francis:

he was players choice MVP for a reason he's only 26 and got a bright future
