Is James Harden the best player in the league?

People don’t really remember how good Andre Iguodala was and it shows.

why would harden even be considered the best ever why is that even a talking point lmao

It's only a few channels who give the respect Steph deserves and understand his role and impact

God I hate Whitlock and he’s not even in this vid

Y’all sleeping on Draymond, he is playing damn good

Harden was never in the best ever conversation so...?

Stephen Jackson: “I was never in a fight - oh except the most notorious fight in sports history.”

Andre Igouadala is a former all star and finals Mvp

“When the fit hit the shan” wow that was clever

I was never one of those people who thought Harden was better than Curry. Never. You’re clueless if you thought otherwise.

Damn the Barkley - Carl Malone analogy makes total sense.

Haters be like.. Before- warriors boring to watch they just do 3s.. Now- warriors boring to watch they just do pass and shoot.. 😂😂😂😂

"3 guard" - Collin Cowherd, 2019

Curry will be a top 10 player in history. Harden is a stat chaser.

People forget that Steph has only been 95-100% healthy like _one time_ in their numerous playoff runs. He always gets hurt somewhere around the post season. Yet despite those injuries, he plays very well.

stephen jackson is my favorite guest on very sports show

Man I love when Jack comes on the show. He keeps it real!

The media are the only ones forcing a narrative about KD being “angry”.

Steph is currently the best offensive player, it's that simple

I really like Stephen Jackson. Collin is also saying good stuff

Stephen Jackson misspoke. Jordan is not the only other player to win 3 Finals MVP's in a row. Shaq.

Stephen Jackson is an amazing commentator! And GS has always been more than 3’s.

Stephen Curry IS THE GUY. Not KD, not whoever else. Bite me.

Warriors vs. Blazers game was actually exciting. Steph vs. Seth. Bucks and Raptors are so boring

Harden definitely isn’t gonna pass LeBron.

I guess people forgot harden was shooting a lot of midrange shots before MDA became coach

I wasnt aware people were even contemplating putting harden anywhere near the "best ever" conversation..

Harden the best ever????? No one has ever said that and I haven’t heard anyone argue he’s the best player in the league currently

Lol why we talking about that guy who’s at home 😂

Stephen Curry has the most impact on offense from a team stand point. The ultimate buff of a team sports.

Colin actually hit the nail on the head...analytics work over the course of an 82 game season but goes out the window during a game 7 where clutch is more important

James Harden is a sixth man who found that exploiting the rules could make him a star. C’mon, his go to move is a flop.

Nobody: Colin: "I don't like Baker Mayfield"

Shaq won 3 FMVP in a row, Jordan is not the only one.

Big bag with a lot of blue strips in it 😂🙌🏾 ik Colin be so confused when jack up there

Straight talk big brother and I love the way u keep it real all the time 👍

How can Harden be the best if he isn't even top 5? 😂🤣

When the fit hits the Shan lol

6:13 when the fit hits the shan😂😂

Colin was extra smooth with that when fit hits the shan line

GOAT = Steph Curry - that's why they keep winning with or without Durant. Beating James Harden, Lebron or any other team. Breaking records. Is only 31 years old and just wait and see how many rings he collects.

Lol "when the fit hits the shan" I like that work around for on air censorship Colin 😉

It’s like going 1vs 2 in boxing. When playing the warriors

This summer fa gonna be fun !

Can we get Stephen Jackson his own show or co-host position? Dude knows basketball, keeps it real and tells it like it is

4:08 this man was about to say Kyle Kuzma 😂😂😂

Great comments! Agree.

Well said

Why is the volume so low?

Steven Jackson speaking facts Lebron, KD Steph & Kawhi those are the superstar in the league The Greak Freak coming !!

When the fit hits the shan. 👏👏

Why is the audio so quiet??? When I hit the mid-video ad it was blasting in my ears because I had to turn my earphones and volume up so high just to hear these guys (I work in an office where people are not talking quietly so I needed it loud enough to hear it).

This is a question they ask you that makes you immediately start looking for the hidden camera. You conduct your search while laughing hysterically.

Stephen Jackson said I was either going to win the game or win the fight that's hilarious

“Never been in a fight, with a player ;)” - Stephen Jackson

Jackson = old school tuff and class!!!

Stacks bringing facts. Love this segment

Ummm so Kobe and Shaq and mj didn’t have dynasties Colin?😂🤦‍♂️

Portland took the Houston sockets strategy to losing a game. Jack A lot Records!

It's harder to make threes at the end of a game when the pressure is on and players are tired.

Great analogy by sj

That Apple analogy might be Collin's best yet

It's funny cause Jackson was one of those who were very critical of Currys Game

I would totally listen to their podcast

Thank you Stephen Jackson for your brilliant perspective.

Wow!!!! Stephen Jackson just dropped some real talk!!!

"Harden isn't going to be the 'best ever'" WOW TALK ABOUT A HOT TAKE

These 2 should have a show

Definitely a fan of Stephen Jackson. Very smart. Great insights on people and the big picture. Others are so focused on stats and analytics that they forget that those don't measure some intangible things. Morale, synergy, team work, leadership, etc. Analytics can't measure those. That's why Westbrooke can pad his 3-ple stats all he wants, but they will never win a championship. And he won't reach the heights and respect that he craves for. Same with Harden. This 1-on-1 and single or 2ble or even 3ple player egos are not going to take them to the next level if they encounter a team that plays 5 people in harmony, each one knowing their roles, and are allowed to create on the floor. Also a team willing to take risks and put in their 2nd stringers in crucial points, if only to teach and train them. If a team can roll in the the lesser player and inspire them to be the next Curry, Green, Thompson, etc., then a fire is lit where the 2nd stringers step up and know they have a future. The Harden, Westbrook, and even Lebron James style does not inspire the lesser players. So, when the chips are down, the main players are injured or have a bad night, there is nothing to pull them up. And this happens only when Management and coach + coaching staff are all in sync and have a mindset of a TEAM, not individuals, or selected holy trinity of players. Funny things is, this is not new. This is old news. The history of the NBA has shown that a superstar can take you only so far. But it takes a team working in sync to the championship. And to repeat it, one requires it. Even MJ eventually realized it. That is why they can go back and win it the following year and so forth. Yes, having a superstar is good. Even 3 of them, but in the end, basketball is a team game. The sooner coaches and the front office realize this, they will forever be wondering why they can't go the final mile. These guys also better stop focusing too much on data and analytics. They don't measure other things and that is why they are befuddled why GSW wins even if they are not the best in many metrics (8th in 3-pt shooting for example). It is a shame that Stockton-Malone didn't win a ring. I am a fan of Stockton. Always will be. Unfortunately, MJ and his crew were better and denied them a championship. Sad. Had MJ retired, they have a good chance to have won. But that is reality. Same with my other idol, Pistol Pete. One of the greatest, but never won a ring. I also win counter most analysts that KD will move to NY or elsewhere. I agree with Jackson here. If KD has his ego checked and not for personal glory or is worried of his history as others are (cough-cough - like Lebron or Westbrook), then KD will create a new path to his own immortality. He will cement his legacy. But not what he thought the path most take. For him to leave GSW, he does not know if the new team has that synergy to take him to a championship. He does not know how he will gel with a new crew. If there are egos in there, it's going to be an uphill battle. They can be successful in the regulars, but it will not take them to the final mile. Maybe it will, but that is a big question. Now it is a gamble for KD if his new team mates. If he moves, he is going to be guessing what his future will be. If he moves only for the money, he will get it, but his legacy might be diminished. Once he is healed, with what the others are doing, he will have to step up and prove his mettle. If the 2nd stingers and nobodies are inspired, then he knows that he will have to step up and show them that he is worth his pay and he is as good or better. Overall, this will lift the team as a whole. And who knows, maybe he will start to learn the system. After all, he can now see the wisdom of Kerr and how a team really works in harmony as a whole. Maybe, he will start to learn the GSW way. For sure, this will elevate his stature and skills further. If any, and he likes that kind of play, he may not even leave anymore! :)

damn lookin at harden and curry in 2022 is crazy

If KD were not with Warriors, he could barely have the chance to be that "closer". The team carries KD and make him "the best", if KD still stayed with thunder, he would not even be in the best player conversation as he tried so hard and could not get 1 win, pretty same as Harden.

Colin had to sneak in the Baker diss

He is right kd is just playing with the media😏😏he willn't go anywhere😏😏😎😎

"I was never in a fight ... outside of the brawl" and I'm a mild mannered guy except that one time I broke a bottle over my brother's head

On god, when he named his top 5 he almost said Kyle Korver lmao

Love to see Stephen Jackson "jacked up"!

Harden can shoot from mid range it’s just the rockets and D’antoni’s system that disallowed the midrange in their offense. He used to primarily score from the midrange and slashing before D’antoni got there

I thought the dude on the left was patrick beverly in the thumbnail

Curry been doing this! Did they forget after KD got there?

9:42 Tf is a "3-Guard" ? 😂😭

YOU PLAAAAaaay TO WIN THE GAME! You don’t play it just to play it. - Coach Herman Edwards.

People say steph #5 in the world because individually he isn't better than lebron , kd , giannis or kawhi mainly due to his size but when it comes to team success and impact in 5v5 basketball , he's easily top 2 .. we can clearly see he's better than kd when it comes to 5v5 ball because he's 29-1 in the last 30 games without him an undefeated in the playoffs without KD during KDs time which is incredible

Great kemistry those two

Great point abt Steph captain Jack

If it's about having a chip to be considered "in the goat conversation" then we should be ONLY talking about: Jordan, Kobe, Steph, Duncan, Wade, and maybe even LeBron , & Dirk. Giannis, KD, Kahwai, haven't led a team to a championship yet so I don't get how they are even in the conversation at all.🤔

Maybe I'm crazy or maybe I'm on to something. Is Cowherd and Ellen the same person?

Shaq did it as well and Curry could definitely get this FMVP

Stephen Jackson always speaks the truth!

One question. Are there exceptions for the greats who simply couldn’t win because of MJ, The Warriors etc.?

Curry is worth 1.5 hardens.

Stephen Jackson & Chris Weber in the same room. Make it happen.

I love watching these video, after it’s confirmed that their prediction was wrong

The argument is invalid because Allen iverson never won a chip but he’s in the conversation as one of the best pound for pound to step on that court

Why does everyone forget about Shaq when they mention 3 straight championships and 3 finals MVPs 🤔

I think he meant KD is like Wentz

Harden will be “the guy that couldn’t beat the warriors”

10:00 Where are these apologetics when Kawhi comes up?

I think this is the best show on ESPN

4:10 he almost said Kyle Kuzma
