Marvel And NBA Stars Collide

James Harden/The Beast

James Harden is one of the most difficult guys to guard in the game. He is also the most difficult to officiate because of his style of play. He is able to get to the free throw line by creating the contact with a player instead of players contacting him. He is also able to beat you with his patented step-back jumper, a move that is able to make many players discouraged when guarding him.

You could say that Harden is thinking moves ahead of his opponent in order to conquer his matchup. It is similar to the way the Beast plans his attack. He is one of, if not the most intelligent member of the X-Men. This helps him solve how to defeat his enemies.

And when that fails, he is to prone to using his physical abilities to thwart anyone who gets in his way. In a lot of instances these two are alike because of the way they approach their adversaries and the methods they use to defeat them.

And if that explanation doesn’t sway you to a comparison, their beards are similar — they’re pretty darn cool!
