If it was that easy, why doesn't Lebron just screen/pick to isolate the center every possession?

cause he dont need to. Aint nobody in the league (PG included) that lebron cant score on. Plus lebron likes a challenge

Everyone agrees that George is better at defense, but Harden can carry a team offensively.

What has Harden ever carried his team to?

Even with Howard this year he won't get out of the 1st round.

Another way to look at the offense vs defense arguement..... lets take a couple of players who are elite on one end and straight horrible on the other end and see who people would choose.

Harden or tony allen
Kevin love or reggie evans

You decide who you would rather have

The guy who left Cleveland to go to Miami w/ Wade and Bosh likes a challenge......

Aren't they like the three seed? Pretty sure they'll get through the first round.

What is this suppose to prove?

Also, if I pick Tony Allen, can I spend my max contract on a player who plays both sides of the floor?

Elite offense is better than elite defense

Yup best in the league defenders with bad offense dont get max money.

Best in the league offensive players that dont play defense do get max money.

I wonder why that is the case

I actually agree with Fish on something..

Still at a loss in how this is suppose to prove that Harden > George. Just because you would take a dominate offensive player w/ no defense over a dominant defensive player w/ no offense doesn't mean that the player who is better at offensive is always the better player.

oh i wasnt trying to prove that harden > george. Thats impossible to do, it all comes down to personal preference. I dont think you are crazy or wrong for thinking george is better.

I was just showing why i think elite offense > elite defense
