This year, maybe. Joe Johnson and Kobe are on the wrong side of 30, and the shooting guard position is a dying position. There are no more great #2's, just a lot of PG's and undersized SF's who swing between their natural position and the SG spot, and they alternate depending on packages.

harden scores 3.5 more points per game which adds up over the course of a season


plus Harden is a franchise player, Dragic isn't ;)

dragic is an efficient scorer...harden is not. both unproven as franchise players.

23.9, 5.3 and 4.7     that's a great stat line for a 24 year old.  i assumed 25 but he's still 24.  god damn imagine how dope he'll be in 2-3 years.

he regressed from last year...he's an ideal 2nd/3rd option. look at how many ugly ass shooting nights he's already had this year. son is a volume chucker and is only passable as a "franchise player" because of the bail-outs from the refs...the nba is tryna manufacture celebrities, and theyve done a good job shoving a rudy gay/monta ellis level talent down our throats and billing him as a superstar..thats all it comes down to.

last 5 games:  25.4 ppg, .957 FT% and a .461 shooting %



houston's won all 5 games.  basically he'll be fine.

I sometimes wonder if NIK realizes what a hater he is


1-Lebron is universally recognized as the best player in the league by everyone

2-Harden is great and will only get better

3-Howard is still better than Andrew Bumknee

mdogg, u dont watch basketball, and i know this for a fact...have u watched the suns play lately? if u dont think Dragic is playing better than Harden, then ur watching too many NBA TV commercials and not enough NBA games. Harden is a star in the same sense that Rudy Gay is a star....only Rudy Gay doesn't get the benefit of every whistle. why the hate for the Rockets? perhaps because Dwight Howard plays there :stupid:....a better question is, why the love for the Rockets? and u consider urself a Laker fan, but stay makin questionable posts smfh.

Nik is suffering from sadism. His favorite player is done do all he has left is to put down and root for other teams to fails so those fans can be as miserable as he is.

It's unfortunate.

lol whats sad is that hack rides james harden's dick just because he knows i dont like the rockets....


i dont root for anyone to fail....but i can always tell a failure when im lookin right at it.

so a guy averaging 24 points is a failure now?

Harden is scoring more than Dragic in a position that's built on scoring, and he has been a bigger star in a game called the All Star game. If Kobe decided to play and start, you'd have no problem with that, and I wouldn't either because Kobe is the biggest star in the SG position left. In a game for stars, Harden is the bigger star who scores more points and leading a better team. Really why is this controversy? I mean, Magic started in the 1992 All Star game, and it's obvious he was the biggest star of the game even though he was retired with HIV.

Huh? Dragic never averaged more than 20ppg, until this season. This year Harden has more points per game and more rebounds per game, more minutes per game, higher points per 36 minutes, more rebounds per 36 minutes, more blocks per game, per 36 minutes, less person fouls committed per game and 36 minutes, the only 2 stats Dragic has is assist and FG%. Other than that, Harden dominates any comparison. Dude, you are a hater.

wtf are u talking about lmfao...dragic is a POINT GUARD. he's not supposed to average over 20 points per game. is Harden better than Chris Paul too?

Bottom line, Harden is a volume scorer and an inefficient chucker who is known around the league as a ball-stopper + a black hole on offense...a poor man's Melo, if u will. and to top it off, Houston thrives without him. Chandler Parson's is more valuable to what Houston is doing than Harden is.....Dragic is an efficient player who makes everyone around him better and has single-handedly led the Suns to being a legit team in the west.

the funniest part about all this is that I can all but guarantee that you haven't even watched one Phoenix Sun game this season...you're juts basing all this over what you're reading over on basketball-reference.com, which is pretty fuckin despicable. Meanwhile, i watch games regularly and follow the players I'm analyzing. Step it up.

He's technically a PG/SG. And he isn't averaging over 7 apg. As a PG, Dragic is averaging 6.2apg. CP3 is averaging 11.1. Harden, 5.3. Dragic is closer to Harden's assist numbers than CP3. Dude, you are getting killed in this argument. There are many other guards you can argue, but you picked Dragic only because you are a hater. You could have said Curry and Paul should have been the starting guards and you'd be right. But you picked Dragic.

U JUST DONT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT BASKETBALL MAYN....U HAVEN'T WATCHED THE SUNS OR ROCKETS PLAY THIS YEAR, UR THE TYPE OF DUDE WHO WATCHES COMMERCIALS AND GOES "OH WOW JAMES HARDEN IS A SUPERSTAR JUST LIKE KEVIN DURANT NOW :drool:" ... JUST ADMIT IT, UV NEVER EVEN SEEN DRAGIC PLAY. YEA, HE DOESN'T AVERAGE AS MANY ASSISTS AS CHRIS PAUL, BUT CHRIS PAUL ALSO DOESNT AVERAGE 20 PPG ON 50% FROM THE FIELD. DRAGIC IS A UNGLORIFIED STAR WHO MAKES HIS TEAMMATES BETTER...JAMES HARDEN IS A GLORIFIED STAR WHO CREATES BLACK HOLES ON OFFENSE AND PLAYS THE WORST DEFENSE IN THE NBA. JUST ADMIT IT, YOU'RE WOWED BY THE COMMERCIALS AND HAVE NO CLUE WHATSOEVER WHAT UR ARGUING ABOUT.



AND IF U WANNA ARGUE STATISTICS, WE CAN DO THAT TOO (SINCE THATS WHAT UR GOING BY, CONSIDERING UV NEVER WATCHED EITHER PLAYER ACTUALLY PLAY)...IF U LOOK AT DRAGIC'S NUMBERS OVER THE PAST 30 DAYS, HE'S DOING BETTER THAN HARDEN AND RANKED A LOT HIGHER

LOL SO DRAGIC IS JUST AN "ABOVE-AVERAGE NBA PLAYER"?? SEE, I TOLD U THIS CAT AINT BEEN FOLLOWIN THE LEAGUE THIS YEAR.. HE MAKES IT TOO EASY


AND EVEN FUNNIER, HARDEN IS A PROVEN NBA STAR? LMFAO


LET ME CORRECT U AGAIN, IF I MAY...WHAT MAKES AN ALL-STAR IS NBA MARKETING. IT WAS PROVEN THIS YEAR WHEN JOE JOHNSON AND DEMAR DEROZAN GOT THE NOD OVER THE WAY BETTER KYLE LOWRY...AND YES, DRAGIC IS ANOTHER ONE OF THE MAJOR SNUBS.


JUST ADMIT U HAD NO IDEA WHO DRAGIC WAS UNTIL NOW AND I'LL LEAVE IT ALONE
