That's just ignorant. He goes to the bucket relentlessly and draws contact quite often. There is a comparison beyond being black and left handed.
It's nothing against Winslow, but Harden is a poor comparison for him. Believe what you want to.
PS: Harden, Duncan, Wade, etc. These comparisons get made every year. Pump the brakes. Most of the time the play styles are different, and that's the case with Winslow.

That's all well and good, but you used some very lofty comparisons with Towns.

Agreed with khan's reply. He's also able to shift gears/mentality mid-attack which is a rare trait and one that Harden has. He's also got a similar body type. He's clearly a better defender than Harden was, however.
Even just now with Harden at the top of the key, he was even DRIBBLING identically to Harden. The only difference on that one is that Harden would have launched the 3 ball while Winslow thought about it and shifted into a pass mid-jump, then slashed.

I compared him to LaMarcus Aldridge with better defense? Towns is in a completely different tier than Winslow.
PS: Harden's my MVP this year so maybe I'm taking his value for more than what you guys are. Winslow's not a "carry your team" guy. He's a really nice second fiddle that could help you win your ring, though.

Didn't Bilas mention Harden as a comp as well? I'm watching the first half right now and give me Winslow out of this draft I would be pretty happy. He he my top guy? Probably not but he looks like an NBA player right now. I think Towns is the guy to hope for as a Wolves fan but there are some attractive consolation prizes.

Winslow has carried his team to two victories in the tournament when they needed someone to step up. You're just making shit up at this point because you don't think he is that good.

I've got Harden as my MVP choice right now. Harden was a nice "2nd fiddle" when he was coming out too. In fact, he was 3rd fiddle with the Thunder, and ultimately the Thunder picked Durant, Westbrook, AND Ibaka over him. Harden was a "nice" player with the Thunder, but he broke out when he had the opportunity to take over a team of his own (in addition to his improvement all around).

Okay, and for the large majority of the season, Okafor and Jones have been Duke's best players. For someone that likes to bitch at me about sample size, you sure are straying from your principles here khans.
And for the record, I do think Winslow's good. He's No. 7 on my board. That's nothing to scoff at and I've never once said he wasn't worthy of a high pick. I DO think he's being overhyped when you begin to discuss whether or not he's a top-four guy like some have on here, though.
