I know BSPN throws this line around, but no. Dumb line, dumb caparison. They have a coach close to pop? lolno. They have a single player close to tim duncan? lmaono. They going to win a playoff series? Probably not. TOTAL PRETENDERSrobj55;1699209 wrote:Spurs east
Watch the replays, the Kings were playing tough d on him, and trying to close out. He just got hot for an unreal quarter. He's a good player and a tremendous shooter, so not that shocking. He should def be an all star and is a better player than Harden. He's pretty much better at everything over harden. Better shooter, better defender. 2 most important things in basketball. Harden should NEVER be a starter over Thompson in the all star game.robj55;1699203 wrote:13/13 from the field and 9/9 from three in a quarter lol sorry but I would have to foul out

There's been a lot of discussion over who's going to replace Kobe as an all star starter. Imo it's not a discussion. It's klay thompson.SportsAndLady;1699223 wrote:??
Him or Harden. I would have no issue.Commander of Awesome;1699263 wrote:There's been a lot of discussion over who's going to replace Kobe as an all star starter. Imo it's not a discussion. It's klay thompson.
I think its a valid comparison. They are winning games without any "stars" on the team. How many times has a Spurs player been to an all-star game? Hawks?Commander of Awesome;1699219 wrote:I know BSPN throws this line around, but no. Dumb line, dumb caparison. They have a coach close to pop? lolno.

I agree with Sleeper that it's a valid comparison. Also, they do have a close coach to Pop. Budenholzer spent 17 years in San Antonio and has installed a Spursian unselfish offensive system.sleeper;1699277 wrote:I think its a valid comparison.

It's definitely a discussion. Harden is an MVP candidate and Thompson's not the best guard on his team.Commander of Awesome;1699263 wrote:There's been a lot of discussion over who's going to replace Kobe as an all star starter. Imo it's not a discussion. It's klay thompson.
Yeah having Duncan makes things a lot easier. But it's a valid comparison, at least in terms of how the teams function (unselfishly).Laley23;1699289 wrote:I disagree with Sleeper in that Duncan is a perennial AS and legit argument for greatest PF ever.
The rest of the team is more like the Raptors, though Parker is a 6x AS.
Not this year. Harden has actually tried on defense his year. Look at the defensive ratings, they reflect that.Commander of Awesome;1699220 wrote: Better shooter, better defender.

Yeah he's still lazy as hell, he gives a little more effort than what he did but marginal.lhslep134;1699313 wrote:http://espn.go.com/nba/story/_/id/12041846/the-truth-james-harden-defense
He went from pathetically awful to average. That's more than a little leap. But continue to not watch the NBA.robj55;1699314 wrote:Yeah he's still lazy as hell, he gives a little more effort than what he did but marginal.
