Harden better RS guy though, but cp3 even in his choking moments was better in the playoffs for me, he was also better in 2018 vs the warriors, harden was ass that series. Both had a lot of playoff lows, but cp3 better highs.

    I really don’t, CP3 obviously has had much better longevity but Harden’s peak was much much better than CP3’s, and not to mention if Dursuperteam never snaked his way onto the warriors Harden would likely have 2 rings as the best player on the rockets

      Clearly you never seen CP3 in his New Orleans days

      and not to mention if Dursuperteam never snaked his way onto the warriors Harden would likely have 2 rings as the best player on the rockets

      I mean if Harden didn’t choke in the 2012 Finals none of that stuff would have ever happened

        As someone who’s as CP3 in the 2000s. Harden peak was still better.

        And I mean…OKC wasn’t beating Miami no matter what. Blaming 6th man harden for that is trolling lol

          It’s debatable, but certainly not “much better”. I would put '08 CP3 up there with any Harden season

          OKC barely lost games 2, 3 and 4 with a 5.3 point average differential… despite Harden averaging 12.6 ppg on 35 FG% in that stretch lol. I think it’s safe to say they could’ve won had he played better.

        Harden averaged 36 in the reg season and won MVP, CP3 is obviously great but he’s never done anything close to that, also 2012 isn’t prime harden
