There was an "if" in front of my statement but otherwise you are correct.So Harden is better than Melo?
Most likely, yes. I say "most likely" because my claim is based on only two seasons of data from Harden but it's two unambiguously better seasons than what Melo provides. It's still not clear to me that Melo even helps his team win games.Terrible. Only one ball.
LOL! Crush's question is a misguided excuse for MElo ball. Performance is impacted much less than many think by the quality of your teammates. You can be a good, efficient player whether you have great or bad teammates.

Is a Prime Ginobli better than Melo?

So Lin now has a better cast in Houston than when he had in NY during Linsanity...I know u believe that Lin is better than Felton...So I should assume you believe that Houston should have a better record than the Knicks this season...Care to stake your already vulnerable rep on that???

Why doesn't it make sense...If he believes Lin and Harden are better...He and others have argued the team should have been modeled after the team that have garnered success during Linsanity...So why doesn't it make sense???

Linsanity had many players injured and we have also added depth. The Linsanity was depleted so this is a really bad comparison.
What does this years knick team have to do with Linsanity?

Actually, I never said Lin is better than Felton. I just said I don't care about DWill's opinion. Lin probably is better than Felton but there's not enough data to make any kind of definitive statement. I don't know enough about Houston's overall team to make a prediction about their win total. Sorry. You seem to be too highly invested in getting me to publicly make a bad prediction.

The giants playing conservatively for an FG and not all out (for a TD) will cost them this game.

ROTFLOL not saying I disagree I think your response is hilarious. I'd wager to say if you surveyed 30GMs across the league on Harden/Ginobli/Melo at their best it would go...
67.3% Ginobli
30.3% Harden
3.3% Melo
They would show Melo some love

Nope. But the penalty that was initially called would have
