The Battle Of 1 & 2: The Chef vs. The Beard Warriors vs Rockets WCF Thread

[G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman]

These nikka on here watch basketball through spreadsheets and stats


They don't see how Harden carries the team on his back and has a teammate that can put up 37 points in a quarter, and how many illegal screens the Warriors set to get those open shots...

These nikka on here are so far up GS ass, and at this point just pain hopeless

Harden is avearging 33p/11r/9a/3.5st this series

saying curry "has no midrange" is like saying flopden doesn't shoot a lot of free throws

The irony being that in your attempt to prove why Harden sucks, all you've done is prove how versatile he is.

Dude's shot just was not falling during that Clippers series and he still averaged 25 phucking points per game. His ability to get to the line is unprecendented and still makes him a huge scoring threat even on "off nights." Let's not forget he averaged 8 assists a game that series. Do you think Curry is crafty enough to still be that impactful if his shot's not falling? I already have the answer to that, because we saw what happened during the Memphis series when Curry couldn't hit his shots. He became useless and the Warriors got mollywhopped 2 games in a row by one of the worst offensive teams in the league.

BTW, your lack of basketball knowledge is painfully evident when we're talking about how versatile a player is and you're still fixated on scoring alone. You must be a Kobe fan.

Im sorry but flopping and having the refs bail u out is not versatility. Cmon this is the same dude who sat on the bench while his team bailed him out in gm 5 last series.

You can tell who actually watches the games and who watches the NBA highlight reels.

These Rockets fans have thrown logic in the bushes. They blame the refs and say the refs favor Steph when Harden has more free throw attempts this series than 4 of our starting 5 players combined, including the Splash Brothers, both of whom started in the Allstar game. One man is getting more free throws than 2 starting allstar guards (1 of them being the league MVP) and they still want more whistles?

If you think James Harden is a better passer than Stephen Curry is because he has more assists this series then you're not a person I can have a logical debate with. Before I go I ask you to listen to the last words Bob Knight said in this clip.

Hilariously enough, nowhere in my post did I state that Harden is a better passer because he averages more assists. Nowhere in my post did I even state that Harden averages more assists either. You made that conclusion on your own, which suggests to me that you're the one looking at box scores.

Read again, and you'll see I'm talking purely about actually watching the games. Find me clips of Stephen Curry breaking down defenses and hitting the open man the way James Harden did in Game 2, particularly that wrap around pass to Dwight. He's a 2 with better 1 skills and instincts than Curry, who's an actual 1. You're probably one of those fools who thinks that Curry's a better passer because he's constantly throwing those pointless behind the backs that could've just as easily been regular passes. Child please.

Also, to answer your boxscore watching comment, no stats don't tell the full story you're certainly right. But believe it or not, in a discussion about versatility, the player who fills up all areas of the stat sheet more is probably...drumroll...the more versatile player. Now you're gonna tell me LeBron James isn't versatile. Russell Westbrook too right?

Once again, Harden is probably the best passing 2 the NBA has EVER seen. Curry isn't even the best passing PG in the league right now. Harden can guard 1s-3s, and despite his rep of being a "poor defender" it's only because of laziness. When Harden is locked in he's an excellent on-ball defender and that showed in all the advanced stats. Curry is hopeless defending against anyone that isn't a 1. Harden is still a scoring threat even when his shot isn't falling because of his ability to get to the line, Curry is not. Harden is an incredible rebounder for his height, and is posting 2009 LeBron caliber numbers in this series at 6'5", Curry is just okay. Harden is bigger, stronger, and far more athletic than Curry and can explode to the rim. Harden is literally better at every single aspect of the game except the ability to shoot the 3 ball, but ask LeBron James and Magic how important the 3 ball is when you can do damn near everything else, and it's not like Harden is a poor 3 pt shooter either.

Dikkhead, Curry doesnt need to have the ball in his hands to be effective like Harden. He can impact the game off the ball and free up other teammates because the defense is worrying about his shooting.

Just stop while you're behind breh.

Honestly, games 1 and 2 Harden proved he's the real MVP

He played really well in Games 1 & 2 but his team didn't win. That means no matter how good his number's were he's open to criticism. He can't get the MVP this year so wins are all that matter. But also this won't be the last year that Harden is in the MVP convo.

Good rational post.

Did I really hear somebody say Harden was the best passing 2 guard ever?
