Better Two guard: Current James Harden or 2008-2010 Brandon Roy

[Purch]

If B roy was at that level right now, would he be a better 2 guard than Harden?

I love me some B-Roy... Clutch! his voice doe.. LOL

I'd say in his peak/prime Brandon Roy was just a little better as a player and leader. But Harden has a lot of time to reach that level and exceed it.

This. Roy stepped it up in the playoffs though, something we have yet to see from Harden. But as iamgine just said, Harden is young and has a lot of time

I always think if Roy and Oden had healthy knees what the Blazers would be today.

Just found this pic on Roy's wiki. Those kids look like they're on drugs, lol

Sucks for Roy he would've been the best shooting guard if not for his bum knees.

Its Roy and by more then the stats would lead you to believe

As a Blazers fan I'm pretty biased, but I would definitely take Roy over Harden. Roy had great leadership, was a better defender and took his time on offense. Harden is a better pure scorer and has more range.

Its Harden, and pretty comfortably.

People love living in the past. Nostalgia is a wonderful thing.
Harden's a better shooter, scorer, passer, shot maker, free throw shooter, etc.

Hes also bigger and stronger, and on top of all that a better athlete.

Thanks, I was just thinking that there was a point where people were predicting that B roy would overtake Kobe and D wade, just like they're saying now with Harden

Roy averaged 23\5\5 on good defense and led his team to a 55-27 record I believe in 2008-2009. Which is better than Harden has showed us just yet.
