I mean Daryl Morey is one of the better GM's in the league, so idk how he's "irrelevant" I mean I don't know how any NBA GM is irrelevant (except maybe anyone who is GM for the Knicks rofl).

Also, read through the posts and all of the stats backing up the claim. Literally every advanced stat, raw stat, anything really favors his claim as Harden being a better scorer now than Jordan ever was. He scores just as much (actually MORE than Jordan did most of his career), at a much more efficient rate.


I agree there are plenty of teams that don't play defense, just like back in the 80's. That's part of the game, some teams SUCK. But to act like defense isn't played now, but it was then, is a myth...


Idk why Parker would say that if it wasnt true, just like you dont know why Morey would say that if it wasnt true. :rolleyes:

But Morey's statement can be backed up for days, the numbers don't lie as i've pointed out and proven in this thread time and time again lol

teams are taking 30 more 3s per game. all the data proves is that 3s are more efficient, not that harden is a better scorer. Harden isnt even as good a scorer as curry, a player in his own era.

What kind of argument is that? Yes, threes are more efficient WHICH MAKES HARDEN A BETTER SCORER THAN JORDAN STATISTICALLY.....and? Harden gets it done everywhere, unlike Jordan who wasn't a consistent three point shooter.

Harden dropped 36.1 PPG on 1.48 Points Per Shot

Curry dropped 27.3 PPG on 1.40 Points Per Shot


Harden's ability to score from everywhere, AND get to the free throw line more than anyone else is what separates him from anyone else in the league. He gets to the line more than twice as much as Curry, while seeing more attention because he has fewer weapons around him.

You're high as fuck if you think Curry is a better scorer than Harden. Better shooter? Yes, better scorer? No.
