    Are you 12?

    You made the statement using the term. Why should I define how you used it?

    Your argumentative approach is predictable and boring. Define the term, blahblahblah. Then change the parameters without answering anything.

    Go find somebody else to play with, fake Stanford grad.

    You asked if the board consensus was that Harden is more valuable than Westrook. Valuable in what way? Pure production? Relative to salary? Relative to age?

    Sorry you can't handle an intelligent conversation.

    Awesome... another thread ruined by the attention-needing troll. This time displaying true intelligence! Maybe it's the lupus?


    And just to prove his high level of maturity...

    Well, people are using the stats that you always trump out. Like PER in comparison with USG Rate and of course WS.

    You're so inconsistent its gross.

    Would you rather have Westbrook or Harden on a max contract? I'd rather have Westbrook. It's as simple as that to me.

    Harden. But, the sub-arguments that lead up to that easy tissy-fit were par for the course.

    So was Kobe, with a PER of 23.9 in 2011 more "valuable" than Rose with a PER of 23.5 in 2011? Would you have traded Kobe straight across for Rose?

    Oh, so you DID want to include salary in the discussion. Try getting your logic straight before crying next time.

    You're arguing with the wrong guy. He said the board thinks that Harden is more valuable than Westbrook to the Thunder. I pointed out that using the statistics that he always trumps out, yes, that would be the case.

    Pertaining to your question, yes I would have traded Kobe for Rose. But, I don't let advanced statistics be the end all of my opinion. Sometimes the eyeball test plays a role.

    I already posted it was in the discussion, at least in terms of trade value. Westbrook would be more valuable in terms of a trade, IMO. Read the thread. I already posted that was my thought.

    But, I'm sure you read that, processed it, and came out with an algorithm saying it didn't make sense.

    I can't handle your intellect. Please stop harassing me. I'm a mental midget.
