Ray Allen played defense. Also, he wasn't a smelly sack of shit.
I'd pick him without hesitation.

Re: Harden 5th Season vs Ray Allen 5th season
keep in mind Allen's 5th season was in 00-01 when there was fair amount of competition at his position and the league hadn't quite gotten rid of handchecking / turned into ticky tack foul fest yet. Harden is a baller but the way he plays feels exploitative (which may seem ironic coming from a Manu fan, but Manu is all heart and drive). Harden lives at the FT line, for better or worse.

Prime Ray Allen was better than current Harden.

Harden would shit himself on court and cry himself to sleep every night. When the free throws are gone, he's in trouble. Add Bruce Bowen to that and it's game over for Beardsley.

Lol at the people on this board who hate james harden.
I swear you guys never give him any credit. You think james harden wouldn't be able to score in 00-01 for some crazy azz reason. Makes absolutely no sense.

Re: Harden 5th Season vs Ray Allen 5th season
The amount of Harden hate must be a joke. People act like he puts up 15-3-3.
Few players can put up around 25-5-5 regardless of the methods they use. He's a special player, just needs to apply himself on defense and continue developing a mid game.
Peak Ray was probably better, although I think it's very much possible Harden will end up better.

Of course he would score, Stackhouse averaged 30 ppg on .40 % shooting for a crappy team, but would Harden be as 'great' as he is now back then or really any better than Ray Allen? I'm hesitant to say yes, but on the other hand I do think he's really talented regardless of era.
Another thing I keep in mind is the frantic fast pace the Rockets play at and the fact Harden launches almost 7 three's a game.

lol, nostalgia has taken a stick and beaten you senselessly over the head. He would be the same damn player. Maybe his rank in regard to his place in the league would differ but that doesn't change how good he is as a player, just his relative rank.
I have no problem with anyone who takes harden over ray Allen in their 5th seasons and everything says that it is essentially a coin flip.

Eh, I just remember a league where defense was allowed to be tougher. Yea stars still got their calls, Kobe, AI, etc,, players still got to the line, but refs weren't having seizures after every little touch like there is now (and yes I'm being facetious to make a point). Has Harden ever gone up against defensive teams as great as the mid-2000's Pistons or Spurs? ... Better question, do those kinds of teams even exist any more? teams that could hold opposition to ~85 ppg.
