- One of the hardest players to rank, James Harden checks in at No. 25 on Nick Wright's Top 50 list. Harden - a 10-time NBA All-Star, three-time NBA Scoring Champion and 2018 MVP - has always been known for his patented step-back jumper and Euro step. Harden averages just over 25 points per game for his career and ranks fifth on the all time 3-pointers list with 2,445. Nick notes Harden's postseason accomplishments take a back seat to his regular season numbers.

Is Harden one of the top five scorers in NBA history? sprtspod.fox/WhatsWright_Audio
Nick kills me with the subtle Kawhi shade lmao…love the podcast tho
LeBron, Harden, and Westbrook are similar to those "historic" players of the past. Where we will look back at them more fondly after they are gone.
all three cuz of curry more or less 🤔
Why even mention Harden and Russ in the same sentence with LeBron
Putting LeBron with those 2 is LeBron hate disease at its peak especially harden who is the biggest playoff big game no show (or bad game+) in the history of first ballot HOFer.
Seems like a weird jab at LeBron, who has more to his resume than the other two you mentioned combined lol.
if harden wins a ring he´s a top 20 easily
There is literally no way you just put him above Kawhi lmao
Facts
Agreed
Kawahi had one amazing run in Toronto which means a lot it’s amazing but his chip in SA came on a dynasty where he was a key part , after that it’s all been bad , he’s had a stacked team on the clippers and hasn’t done anything , plus all the drama that came out about how his uncle wanted bribes and how he didn’t want to practice and would be late everyday plus they blow a huge 3-1 Lead as the Favorite it all balances out plus regular season wise harden is clearly much better
And has been the #1 on steam for years kawhi just started and besides the one run again he’s failed miserably in la
Why is Harden ranked 25th below Stockton 24th?
Stockton made 11-times 30+ points games in his career.
Harden made 316-times 30+ points games.
Let that sink in.
Harden has 6x Top-5 MVP season
Stockton has 0x Top-5 MVP season
Comments are just showing how underrated James Harden is. Arguably the best offensive player without a ring, maybe one of the least lucky players of all time in terms of competition and injury luck. Hits his prime and faces the 73 win Warriors, 61 win Spurs best defense in the NBA with no help, Big 4 Warriors for three years straight, Bubble Lakers with Westbrook playing all-time bad and the Bucks with a torn hamstring. Look at the numbers, both regular season and the playoffs, look at the win % for both and the accolades. 25 might not be high enough.
some of these comments are giving me a headache
@@simptydyce3294 pro Harden or anti Harden?
@@jonjuko8859 The anti harden comments. People are just being lazy and talking about the playoffs, But Nick stated how good his reg season resume is, He was such a phenomenal scorer
@@simptydyce3294 W. Guys need to look up Harden’s numbers in the playoffs as a starter and his career playoff win % is better than guys like Barkley and Stockton
@@simptydyce3294 Playoffs expose his scoring. Hes only a very good scorer and not elite because his effeciency dips and hes terrible closer
Harden has to change his playoffs record
so if jokic never improves 1 single bit throughout the rest of his career he should be top 20 ever based on his regular season exploits. but obviously nick has one standard for jokic and another for the rest
He doesn't have a standard for jokic, he has a standard for two-time consecutive MVPs, emphasis on the consecutive
Name me a James Harden costar that could stay healthy? You can't... Each were injury riddled and declined forcing him to carry a heavy load.... Man never missed the playoffs his whole career and didn't have the talent or injury luck of his contemporaries.
He's a postseason choker, Elvin Hayes has a ring. As much as you give Hayes credit, 4th in boards, 11th in pts all time and durable; it doesn't make sense Harden is higher than him.
You should do live adjustments. Like if Steph wins a finals mvp this year I’d imagine he’d move up your list. So after you done the list you can have adjustment episodes when needed
Such a curry fan 😂 like the idea tho except you can’t bc some losses don’t impact players greatness bc according to a lot of people with how bad lakers played and nets played some of these dumb basketball fans might say ohh lebron and Kd move down in the list! It doesn’t work like that gotta wait can’t do live bc recency bias like you would move curry up but over who the top 10 is still better career wise even if he wins his first FMVP and 3rd ring
@@williamarroyo1497i want to see what you have to say now
wtf?! no way he’s up this high. it not all about padding stats offensively that makes you a great player. He was on a team that was geared towards him scoring. Secondly, you need to give it context and consider the whole body of work. He plays absolutely no defense almost to the point that it’s embarrassing and pathetic, his laziness off the court and coming into seasons overweight on purpose WHICH continuously hinders the team he’s on and the biggest one, his atrocious playoff performance and shortcomings. There is no GM that ever existed that would pick Harden over Kawhi AND I think Pippen is criminally underrated. Imagine if Jimmy Buter played defense like Marcus Smart and had the low maintenance like Kawhi, that’s Pippen and I’d ride with him over Harden any day.
Harden biggest post season flipper of any top75 player ever and it’s not close!
In what world is James Harden better than Allen Iverson ?? 🤦🏽♂️ this list is 🗑
In the world you're living on lol. Go ahead, take your paper out the trash and cry on it lol! Just make sure to wash about 6 times afterwards.
@Cheating Scooby Doo Yes, agreed!
Harden has better numbers, better accolades and better win %’s in the reg season and playoffs
In what world is Iverson better then harden 🤣
Harden had a 30 pt triple double against the celtics
Harden is just unlucky in the playoffs, its kind of like luka against the warriors this season happened to harden every post season except the game 6 against spurs without kawhi. he deserved 4 mvps not just 1. 76ers dont deserve harden they have so much hate for him but there is no way harden leaves Daryll. And teama win rings not just one player
Harden above Kawhi Leonard? That's how you know this isn't a serious list.
Legends are made in the playoffs Nick, you got this one wrong
James Harden behind John Stockton tho?
I'm crying
Kawhi is top 20 he did everything Chris Paul couldn’t do. U on smt 4 sure
no way Harden is not top 50, mediocre playoffs, only regular season threes and free throws, very artificial stats that translate to no winning
What's James Harden's win-loss record in the regular season?
uhhh yeah hes not better than kawhi lol pippen idk but def not kawhi
Boo that man
This dude shouldn't even be top 40 ill give him 41 dude shrinks like crazy in playoffs
Too high. Harden is absolutely NOT greater than Rick Barry, Elvin Hayes, Patrick Ewing, Jason Kidd, or Paul Pierce.
He def ain't better then kawhi
He's better then all those players u named 🤣🤢
Harden shouldn’t even lick top 40 let alone 25
Harden way too high, playoffs matter the most and he flames out every year
Hmmmmm... his playoffs career is a mixed bag but in the regular season he is something else!!
In what universe is harden better then kawhi fkn leonard
@@Lefthandrightband Hmmmmmm... his regular season record is way better and he has more longevity but yes, Kawhi Leonard has been great considering.
“Flames out” against who in his prime? 73 win Warriors, 61 win Spurs with the best defense and no help, Big 4 Warriors for three straight years, Bubble Lakers with no help and he tore his hamstring against the Bucks after destroying the Celtics
@@jonjuko8859 did awful this year
Worst take ever Nick Wrong today
Did you actually listen to any of the facts he provided? Do you even have an argument?
@@simptydyce3294 *Bobby* doesnt.
No way Harden makes Top 50! He's a chocker when it counts. You're delusional on this one Nick just like you're delusional on NoBrain Westbrick! I'll take prime Carmelo any day over these two fools.
Carmelo didn't even has a chance to prove in playoffs.
Bro u acting like everyone can go to the finals and win finals mvp
MELO?!
