He does so much so well, I'd say it takes two or three guys to replace him.... OKC still has lots of horse power, but they just went from nitro to regular fuel. As for OKC getting first round picks, they're like lottery tickets...Harden is a blue chip stock

I couldn't get much past "Harden can defend". Well, no, not really. He can't.

The rest isn't too far off, but lets see what he can do facing #1 defenders without Durant and Westbrook around. I'm not so sure Martin, and eventually Lamb, can't do just as much as Harden did in that situation. Harden is basically Manu, and that guy never approached being paid as a MAX player. Same goes for a Jamaal Crawford or Jason Terry.

You realize the Thunder don't have much more committed to the new "Big 3" (Ibaka) than Houson has to Lin, Harden, and Asik. That doesn't sound very promising to me.
