Reasons why James Harden is a better player than Dywane Wade:


Better defender
Better jumpshooter (especially from distance)
More clutch
They drives and finish at about the same clip it seems
Does all of this while playing with two of the leagues biggest ballhogs



What does Dwyane Wade do that he should be considered the better player?




[Yeah, I pulled that out of my ass, but I'm thinking it's kinda true and stats might prove it so. Would one of you stat guys figure this out. Please prove or disprove this por favor. I want to believe. Fuck Dyane Wad.]
This post was more entertaining when I thought it was made by shadowlork.

I would definitely take Harden over Wade. Not to mention he isn't on the Bonds juice.


Do you think Dyane's vicious foul on Collison is due to 'roid rage?


Man is completely out of control.


- Breaks the league's best player's nose because he was styling on him in the All-Star game.

- Attempts to break Collison's neck because he got stuffed on the other end?



At what point should the authorities step in a file charges, Cap? I am scared for every single player on the floor when Dyane is out there.

PEDs have turned him into a monster.

I can gel with this.

I agree my main man. Dwade is a danger to himself and those around him. It's time to make the difficult decisions but unfortunately I don't think anybody around him will do it. If you and I had the credentials and were supported legally, I definitely have confidence in our ability to help the man.

What is going on here.
 
We're are compiling a list, backed by scientific data, that proves beyond any doubt that a lowly sixth man is a better professonal basketball player than one of the league's so-called elite plyers.

Lets be honest here assistant cap, Wade has never been a truly elite player in the league. Seriously. After Shaq's departure, Wade was the sole go to guy on his team and never did shit with said team. Never won an MVP. Never led the league in scoring. He benefited playing next to Shaq more than any player in history not named Dennis Scott. And now DWade is leaching off of LeBron.
 
Heat will win it this year due to papa Stern but if Thunder can resign both Ibaka and Harden, watch out.

Unless Stern can pull a M.D. out of his ass and magically bring Chris Bosh back to life (or make Lebron grow a fucking pair so he won't pass up makeable game-deciding jumpshots), I don't see this Heat team beating either the Spurs or the Thunder in four games out of seven.
 
Damn.

On second thought, I don't know if it improves the team that much. Perkins is a waste and cook is eh. You're basically giving up Bosh for Harden. Better to give up Wade for Harden. Bron, Bosh, Harden, and you got a wow team.
Yeah, but I think unless something else happens it'll be very hard for Miami to deal him. Now I was going to put Ibaka in that deal but no way the Thunder would trade Ibaka to the Heat for Bosh.

I mean Jesus Christ, can you imagine IBAKA on the Heat? goddamn

It would be over. Seriously. OVER.

LeBron, Harden, Ibaka. Smfh.

No way. Ibaka over Haslem any day. Also, prime Haslem is exactly what this team needs which is why Ibaka paired with LeBron and Harden would be scary. The Heat would finally have a leader.

Besides shot-blocking, what exactly has Ibaka done in this league that Haslem hasn't?
 
Yes? It's called Udonis Haslem circa 2005-2011, before he got injured?
Haslem is a legit 6'10 got triple doubles with blocked shots back then?

Let's be real, other than a better shot prime Haslem doesn't do things that much better than Ibaka. They both impact the other team in different ways: Ibaka with his shotblocking, prime Haslem with his Man D. But Ibaka is younger/still learning the game, you put him with a real coach and Erik Spolestra? Dude could morph into a poor man's Alonzo Mourning.

Ibaka is so damn overrated, jesus.

Poor man's Alonzo? lmao.

How poor are we talking here? Homeless?

What has he been asked to do besides being a defensive juggernaut? He's improving every year, getting pretty good at that mid range shot, etc. Pair him with LeBron and Harden and a coach who knows how to utilize them? Smh.

Improving every year? He's playing exactly like he did the year before.

If anything, he's slightly worse this year.

Well that's where the coaching thing would come into play. Riley would take the ghosts of Keith Askins and Ike Austin and turn this dude into a mean machine.

Harden = 05-06 Wade with a 3pt shot
Ibaka = post Kidney transplant Zo

I remember when Wade was likeable, it seems like so long ago. Flash was a fantastic nickname.

What a shame.


Stop shattering my Melo for LeBentley fantasy, Frankie. I don't know if I could take another year of iso-ball. :(

Seriously. I was giddy when he got a triple double in college. And that playoff series against the powerhouse Pacers team? Brilliant. But he's just a punk now.

You know, that's a good analogy for Lebron.

He's like a Chrysler 300. It looks like a Bentley until a real Bentley rolls up next to it.
 
I hate Skip Bayless, but he has been right about Lebron all along. Certain players can hit free throws with the game on the line and certain players WANT to shoot free throws with the game on the line. Dirk and Nash are two of those players. Kobe is one. Durant is probably one. There are many players in the league that covet that opportunity and James is not one of them. How many clutch free throws did Dirk nail in the Finals last year? I lost count. Lebron is one of the last players in the league I'd want shooting free throws with the game on the line. At least Deandre Jordan wouldn't get mind fucked.

Lebron has missed more clutch freethrows than Dirk made last playoffs. And Dirk made a fuckton.
 
Stephen A. Smith is the biggest apologist in sports media. He tried to say that the onus was on Wade because the Heat lost that game. What was he watching? Yes, Wade missed two jumpers and a lay up, but at least he attempted a fucking shot.
