    Is Cowherd a Harden believer now?

    Saying Harden was "tied for third" is true but misleading. He was technically 6th, same as LeBron James.

    The question should be to himself...”Have I finally pulled my head out of my ass and realized what a lot of people have known for years, that Harden is better than Russ?”

    We've been saying this for 4 years now Colin.

    Especially during the triple-double MVP season Westbrook put together.

    What is funny about Cowherd is he *likes* Harden only when he juxtaposes him against Westbrook.

    What you set aside Westbrook, Cowherd dumps on Harden when they talk about Curry & LeBron etc.

    Cowherd just uses foils as the basis of his debate. And there isn't consistency.

    How is he “overrated” but also the players mvp?




    He’s either a cheat or the greatest offensive player in decades. No middle ground.

    There we 4 players tied for 3rd with 4.2% of the vote. So in reality, harden recieved 5 out of 122 votes as “most overrated”

    Can’t believe cowherd has come over to be a Harden fan...seems like just last month he was trashing him. It’s weird and unsettling...

    He's not. Don't be fooled. He's just a Harden fan in reference to Westbrook. And more importantly, he's just going to say whatever he knows will give him the most views.

    I take whatever this guy has to say with a grain of salt. If Harden has a tough playoff exit, he’s back to “Harden’s a choker, didn’t I tell you so?”

    Cowherd makes 6 Daniel Houses per year

    http://www.insideradio.com/report-c...cle_93bfd58a-7a2e-11e8-83c3-7bde02c0adb8.html

    Cowherd joined Fox Sports in 2015, arriving from ESPN Radio with a reported $6 million annual salary. The New York Post, which first reported the new contract, says Cowherd is set to make more as he continues ownership of the radio program. “Since Cowherd is continuing his ownership stake in his content, the exact total of his new deal is likely more,” the Post’s Andrew Marchand wrote.

    Separation?

    They were worlds apart early on as players. Harden is the much more efficient dude with the beard.

    Harden as an offensive player is in conversation with MJ and Wilt for crying out loud!

    Russ never grew a beard.

    Russ is the better rebounder, faster & explosive, those are the only two things.

    No, he's just using Harden to discredit Westbrook.

    If there's a topic on only Harden, he will return to hating on him.

    This was an actual topic? Really? This thing was settled long ago.

    Remember when Harden vs. Klay used to be a thing?
