In NBA comparing players is normal, after all, we can clearly see who among the players is better by looking at their performance. The Golden State Warriors' shooting guard Klay Thompson and Houston Rockets' shooting guard James Harden are often compared.
In an interview with SiriusXM NBA Radio, Bucks' veteran player Jason Terry shared his thoughts about Klay Thompson and James Harden. According to Terry, who also plays the same position as the two, Harden is better in playing as a shooting guard.
Jason Terry encourages everyone to watch last year's Klay Thompson and James Harden's encounter. He explained that Thompson couldn't keep up with James. When James Harden got him, Draymond Green or Andrew Bogut will take the defense.
While it may sound that Jason Terry is not a huge fan of Klay Thompson, he stressed that he doesn't hate the player or Golden State Warriors. Actually, Terry appreciates Thompson's shooting skills but Stephen Curry's Splash Brother is just a no match when it comes to James Harden's shooting guard skills.
Jason Terry added that Klay Thompson's shooting skills are even better compared to Stephen Curry. Terry said per Def Pen that Thompson's jump shot is a pure beauty.
Based on the NBA 2015-16 statistics, James Harden's made 29 points per game and 7.5 assists per game. Meanwhile, Klay Thompson has 22.1 points per game and 2.1 assists per game. However, Thompson leads when it comes to FG% and 3P% with 47% and 42.5% respectively, against Harden's 43.9% and 35.9%.
