I didn't watch Arizona State play a full game this year but it worries me (or would if we hat the 5th pick) that Harden is both a little undersized and marginally athletic. You can get by without one or the other but I can't think of a star/borderline star 2-guard that doesn't have either. Maybe Ben Gordan but his size makes him a defensive liability.
Based on the highlights I've seen Harden is crafty around the basket. I'd like my top 5 pick to be overpowering.
