Harden or Westbrook: Who would you pick?

[Tr1boy]

Who is better overall?

Who would you pick to build a team around?

[apc]

Westbrook.
 
Looks like more of a leader then Harden.
(although i don't really like either to be honest. )

[SHAQATTACK]

Not close

Westbrook .....far th more complete player .

Westbrook is better. I will say, though, that Harden may prove to have better longevity given his skills and style of play.

[Who]

Westbrook = plays defense

[Moranis]

why wouldn't this be a poll?

and the obvious choice is Westbrook.

Westbrook.

But Harden should be an MVP because he doesn't have much help in Houston and still has Houston at 23-9 and 3rd in a tough West.

But Westbrook will easily win it if he keeps his triple double average the entire season (which is also fine by me).

Gordon, Anderson, Ariza, and Beverly are all excellent shooters, which allows Harden to drive and dish at will.  They actually have a pretty nice set up there and built a very strong team around what Harden does well.  Pretty similar to what the Sixers did with Iverson years ago.

Yeah, definitely Westbrook. Not a huge fan of Harden's game, but that's probably just my loss 

[A Future of Stevens]

I like the point about longevity. Westbrook might drive himself into the ground, but the stuff he does at his size is absurd, so who actually knows.

Harden is very talented, but he doesn't scream leader to me.

[BleedGreen1989]

Westbrook.

Talents aside, I think the adege that a team takes on the personality of its best player is true. Therefor I'd rather my team have Westbrooks personality.

[KGs Knee]

Neither, I don't like either of them.

Fantastically talented but extremely unlikable players.

It's the main reason I would like to see Golden St win the title this year if the Celtics can't.  I'd love to see Durant stick it to that jackass Westbrook.
