Who has the best former teammate in his career? (James Harden)
10:35am, 13 August 2025Basketball
Recently, the well-known American sports media The Score posted the best teammates in his career selected by Los Angeles Clippers player James Harden in the live broadcast! He also asked: "How many wins do you think this lineup can win in a single season? How many championship trophys can it win?"
Full Courtpass, also a well-known American media, directly updated on social media that Harden has the best former teammate in the entire NBA history. As soon as this statement is spoken, a stone stirs up a thousand waves! After all, the one who was hacked the most before was another James...
After removing himself, Harden pondered for a long time and gave the names of the other four starting teammates. However, how can Harden has partnered with only four superstars in his career? The former teammate king in the minds of online fans must be James, while the former teammate king in the eyes of sports media is another James - James Harden...
It is normal for everyone to have their own ideas, and everything needs data to support it. Then this issue of Sanpang will start a new series - a list of who has the best former teammates in his career? Unlike the five-man group chosen by Harden and the media, Sanpang will continue the past tradition and directly line up a complete 12-man team. (PS: The former teammates naturally do not include their current teammates, so as to avoid the overflow of bargaining comment sections. They are marked in bold!!!)
Starting lineup:
Point guard: Chris Paul
Dual team: Houston Rockets
Dual partner duration: 2 seasons (17-18, 18-19)
Partner period data: 17.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 8.0 assists, 1.8 steals, 0.3 Blocks
Peak season data: 22.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 11.0 assists, 2.8 steals, 0.1 blocks
Career honors: 4th first team, 5th second team, 2nd third team, 7th first defense, 2nd second defense, 1st AMVP, 5th assist king, 6th steal king, 12th All-Star
Sanpang brief review: Although Harden gave the best point guard position of the former teammate Irving, Sanpang felt that the old cannon should be the best point guard Harden has ever worked with in his career. The peak of the team of the group was in the 17-18 season. If it weren't for the favoritism of the Black Whistle, I believe the two had already bid farewell to the embarrassing title of the Uncrowned King...
Scoreback: Kyrie Irving
Two teams: Brooklyn Nets
Two partners duration: 2 seasons (20-21, 21-22)
Partner period data: 27.1 points, 4 .6 rebounds, 5.9 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.7 blocks
Peak season data: 27.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 6.4 assists, 1.4 steals, 0.5 blocks
Career honors: 1st championship, 1st second team, 2nd third team, 9th All-Star lineup
Sanfat brief review: Since Brother Deng served as a shooting guard most of the time, he has never partnered with the No. 2 position at the super giant level in his career. Considering that Irving's offensive attributes are far stronger than the organization, Sanpang classified Ou Shenxian as a shooting guard! The pair of Dengou was a partner in the Big Three of the Nets, which coincided with the epidemic and injuries. The combination did not play the desired effect...
Small Forward: Cameron Anthony
Two-way team: Houston Rockets
Two-way partner duration: 1 season (18-19)
Partner period data: 13.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 0 .5 assists, 0.4 steals, 0.7 blocks
Peak season data: 28.9 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.4 blocks
Career honors: 2nd team, 4th third team, 1st scoring champion, 10th All-Stars
Sanfat brief review: Although Gua Ge averaged only 13 points per game during his time with Harden, Anthony is the top 75 stars after all! Judging from his personal ability at the peak, there is no doubt that Anthony occupies a starting position. The only shame is that Harden and Anthony's teammates came too late... The two of them only became teammates in the club for 10 games.
Power Forward: Kevin Durant
Two teams: Oklahoma City Thunder, Brooklyn Nets
Duration of the two: 5 seasons (09-10, 10-11, 11-12, 20-21, 21-22)
Part time data: 28.7 points, 7.4 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.1 steals , 1.1 blocks
Peak season data: 32.0 points, 7.4 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.3 steals, 0.7 blocks
Career honors: 2nd championship, 1st MVP, 2nd FMVP, 6th first team, 5th second team, 4th scoring champion, 15th All-Stars
Sanfat brief review: There is no controversy, Durant is the best player Harden has ever worked with in his career! He is also the super giant who has been with the longest partner among Harden's former teammates. The two have been with the Nets for 3 or 2 seasons respectively. The only shame is that they have not tasted the taste of the championship... As the two leading players in the scoring industry, the two have not formed a partner at their peak.. This is also a pity!
Center: Joel Embiid
Two teams: Philadelphia 76ers
Two partners duration: 2 seasons (21-22, 22-23)
Partner period data: 31.8 points, 10.9 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.6 blocks
Peak season data: 34.7 points, 11.0 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.7 blocks
Professional Career honors: 1st MVP, 1st first team, 4th second team, 3rd second defense, 2nd scoring champion, 7th All-Star
Sanfat brief review: From the beginning of the partnership, it was widely regarded as the league finale, and it was strange to the end of the game... We don't know what happened between Embiid and Harden, but we only know that the combination of Emperor Ding became a widely circulated joke... The two of them during their partnership undoubtedly failed to play their greatest advantages. Although Embiid made outstanding performance in data, it was difficult to lead the team to complete a breakthrough in the playoffs.
Substitute lineup:
Point guard: Russell Westbrook
Dual team: Oklahoma City Thunder, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers
Dual partner duration: 5 seasons (09-10, 10-11, 11-12, 19-20, 23-24)
Partner period data: 19.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6. 7 assists, 1.5 steals, 0.4 blocks
Peak season data: 31.6 points, 10.7 rebounds, 10.4 assists, 1.6 steals, 0.4 blocks
Career honors: 1st MVP, 2nd first team, 5th second team, 2nd third team, 2nd AMVP, 2nd scoring king, 3rd assist king, 9th All-Stars
Sanfat brief comment: Like the eldest brother, the second brother has also partnered with the third brother for 5 seasons. Moreover, the relationship between the second and third brothers is even better than that between the eldest brother! But combinations like Widen are indeed not compatible... Westbrook's ability to do not have the ball has long been identified, and Harden also needs to have the ball in his hand to play the greatest role. The playoffs of the two are indeed not convincing...
Center: Dwight Howard
Team: Houston Rockets
Dual-partnered duration: 3 seasons (13-14, 14-15, 15-16)
Partner period data: 16.0 points, 11.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.9 steals, 1.6 blocks
Peak season data: 22 .9 points, 14.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.4 steals, 2.4 blocks
Career honors: 1st championship, 3rd DPOY, 5th first team, 1st second team, 2nd third team, 4th first defense, 1st second defense, 5th rebound king, 2nd block king, 8th All-Star
Three fat brief review: Howard, who loves to play the most, meets Kobe, who wants to win the most, and Howard, who wants to win the most, meets Harden, who loves to play the most... This is probably the case with the so-called feng shui turn, right? I thought Harden at his peak and the spark of his peak tail could make the league come to an end, but unfortunately the difference between the two personalities made the pair completely fail to perform their due results...
Power forward: Lamarcus Aldridge
Two teams: Brooklyn Nets
Two partners: 2 seasons (20-21, 21-22)
Part time Data: 12.9 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.3 steals, 1.1 blocks
Peak season data: 23.2 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 0.9 steals, 1.0 blocks
Career honors: 2nd team, 3rd team, 5th All-Stars
Sanfat brief review: Ade is a typical representative of his teammate with Deng Ge before he has passed the peak, and he is also the one who sacrificed the most among the six giants in the past. Ade, who was originally the core of the team's offensive, needs to hand over the strike rights to Du Ouden and the other three. The latter, who has become the fourth offensive point, naturally performed poorly. What is not surprising is that this Super Nets failed to win the championship and disintegrate, and Ade also ended up with a hasty retirement...
Power forward: Blake Griffin
Two teams: Brooklyn Nets
Two partners duration: 2 seasons (20-21, 21-22)
Partner period data: 7.5 points, 4.3 rebounds , 2.0 assists, 0.5 steals, 0.3 blocks
Peak season data: 24.1 points, 9.5 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.2 steals, 0.6 blocks
Career honors: 3rd second team, 2nd third team, 6th All-Stars
Sanfat brief comment: Shafen is also a representative who has been able to cooperate with Deng Ge before his peak period has passed, but these two were the leagues that were in the same draft in the past. Now the former has long faded out of the alliance, while the latter is still at the top of the pyramid. A very different career is a pity...
Small forward: Paul George
Dual team: Los Angeles Clippers
Dual time: 1 season (23-24)
Partner period data: 22.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists, 1.5 steals, 0.5 blocks
Peak season data: 28.0 points, 8.2 rebounds , 4.1 assists, 2.2 steals, 0.4 blocks
Career honors: 1st team, 5th team, 2nd team, 2nd team, 2nd team, 1st defense, 2nd team, 1st steal king, 9th All-Stars
Sanfat brief comment: Pickled pepper at its peak undoubtedly has the strength of the top three position, but it’s a pity that it is becoming more and more abstract now... Originally, the sound of the league finale after Harden airborne the Clippers was heard again, but it’s a pity that Kajiao Denwi’s four giants returned in the first round of the playoffs. George in the playoffs is indeed lacking persuasion, and this has become increasingly serious since he left the Pacers...
Scoreback: Joe Johnson
Two teams: Houston Rockets
During the duration of the two: 1 season (17-18)
Secondary period data: 6.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 0.3 steals, 0.0 blocks
Peak season data: 25.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 4.4 assists, 1.1 steals, 0.2 blocks
Career honors: 1st third team, 7th All-Stars
Sanfat brief comment: Are you surprised? Amazing? A fan who is not a loyal Rockets must have thought that the former Eagle King had also been a teammate with Harden! This super singles king may be the best point guard Deng Ge has ever worked in his career. It’s a pity that when they partnered, Joe Jo was already 36 years old... Not everyone is called James, not everyone can still average 25+ at the age of 40...
Center: DeAndre Jordan
Team: Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers
Duration of partnership: 2 seasons (20-21, 21-22)
Partner period data: 6.8 points, 7.1 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.3 steals, 1.2 blocks
Peak season data: 11.5 points, 15.0 rebounds, 0.7 assists, 1.0 steals, 2.2 blocks
Career honors: 1st championship, 1st first team, 2nd third team, 2nd first defense, 2nd rebound king, 1st All-Star
Three fat brief comments: Compared to Howard, Jordan Jr. is indeed not a little worse. But only in terms of peak period, Jordan is also a center forward in the double first team! Jordan's biggest advantage in protecting the basket and eating cakes is also Harden's favorite type of player. Unfortunately, the two can only cooperate after their peak period...
Then the above is the best former teammate lineup that James Harden has ever worked with in his career in his mind. I wonder what you have on this?
It takes time and effort to review materials, and it is even more exhausting to integrate resources... I hope that the audience who likes this article can move your rich little hand to give Sanpang a free like! A mere like is nothing to you, but it can make Sanpang happy for several days. Giving someone a rose will bring fragrance to your hands! I like, follow and share more. Sanpang wishes you all your wishes come true! !
