    I wanted Harden to score just to infuriate everyone here.

    That was probably the best way to end the streak. Against a team nobody cares about and James decided to choose sportsmanship over a streak that -- let's face it -- doesn't even impress the casuals anymore because they'll hate him regardless.

    I think it will take a little time for Harden to transition from superhero ball back to trusting his teammates. He's got a lot more help now than he did during his monster run. He'll get it together.

    The Hawks play hard, good win, we have lost too many games like this.....so this was a good sign.

    Love the big lineup.....need to start that the rest of the year.

    Make no mistake, I wanted Harden to continue the streak, but not at the expense of the team. He was tripping tonight! I'm glad CP3 froze him out. If Harden just played like a regular dude he would have gotten 30 easily!!

    I'm sad now because no 30 streak means no MVP or a very, very, very low chance of getting the MVP.

    Harden actually played well in the last quarter. It’s that three ball that’s annoying since he was like 8 of 12 or something from the two area and 0-11 from the three.

    I really don't think Harden should have played that game. If they could beat the Warriors without him they could damn sure take the Hawks. And he doesn't look right.

    Disguised 'fire D'Antoni' comment
    Realistically, we had to have X number of players on our active roster based on league rules.
    He's only roster filler for now.
    I have no problem leaving him on the bench in a close game.
    In a blowout? Sure.

    That is not the clap this streak deserves. It's kind of disrespectful. I reject it.

    I said he played bad & was chucking (looked good on his drives). I think the whole team looked bad tonight though even with the W.

    It was obvious in some earlier games that Harden was willing to let the streak die sooner, I expected him to hold the ball at 28... knew he wouldn't shoot it.

    Well done James, that is awesome record man.
    But as a fan, I am happy to see that Harden streak ended, and double happy to see rockets winning streak has been started!!
