He had a terrible tournament no doubt, but 10, 6, & 5 is a pretty solid overall line.

 

I think he looked terrible and that is not a solid line for a first team All-American. He looked pretty sluggish today to me.

That's my take on him, most of the time he looks out of shape and a tad bit slow, and for the record, whoever said that about Tayshawn Prince, he is a much better pro player than college player, as most of Tubby's players are, but that's a different thread altogether.

I don't understand the whole "lazy, disinterested" criticism. I seem to remember a player at UK named Tayshaun Prince who seemed to play in slow-motion at times, but would anyone call him lazy? There are some players, both Prince and Harden are two of them, that appear to be going half-speed, or not hustling, when in reality, it's just the way they move, or the fact that they can just do things in a very fluid undercontrol manner.

 

Well one thing TP wasn't was fat. Harden looks heavy. A lot of standing around on offense for Harden today. One thing TP didn't do was stand around. Tayshaun moved well without the ball. Look maybe Harden is a great player, but he certainly doesn't play like it on the big stage. Not sure you could say that about Tayshaun either. Maybe not a very good comparison.

Apparently you know enough to realize that Harden is better than Meeks. :thumb:

I can't understand why one would say it's laughable, as if there's that big of a discrepancy between the two. I certainly think Harden is better, but not that much better. But of course, I'm not getting paid to evaluate talent, that's just my personal opinion.

 

WOW...While we argue a lot, I love this from you....

I'm not here to say that Jodie is better, but acting like Harden is the greatest guard in college basketball is a flat out joke.

now, cmon, we don't argue that much.

Well here just let me name the games I did see of Harden.

 

Baylor, Cal, USC twice, UCLA, Washington twice, Oregon, BYU, Washington State, Arizona, Temple, and Syracuse.

 

That's 14 times I saw him play, and a lot more of highlights and clips of games. I have followed him all year long from day 1, trust me. Either way if you do or don't is fine with me :thumb:

 

 

:lol: You saw him 14 times? You are right, I don't believe you.

Harden may make a better pro but to say he is a hands down with out a doubt better college player then Meeks is the only laughable thing in this thread. I have heard over an over how great this guy is but every time I watch him I just don't see it.

When did anyone say he was the greatest guard in college basketball?

That's 14 more times than you my friend :thumb:

 

Ya know, maybe you should call up ESPN, I heard they needed a new NBA scouting director, you would do wonders for them :laugh:

Don't get me wrong, I said I wasn't overly impressed with Harden, and think he has been greatly overhyped. Just in his own state, I think Chase Budinger will be a better pro than him. But Meeks is NOT an elite player in the country, IMO. He can get very hot sometimes, but he's only a one dimensional player. He's a great shooter, but Harden is much better in every facet of the game.

Here it is guys...
