James Harden is the only player in NBA history to average at least 25 PTS, 9 AST, and 60% TS% for a season! The ultimate scoring and play making efficiency! http://bkref.com/tiny/ug9Vw
just saw this on Reddit...Harden has 7 40 point games against the Blazers which is tied for 2nd most right behind Kareem at 8
I posted this in the game thread: Harden is averaging 40ppg against the Blazers over last 13 games ... going back to March 2014.
Seriously WTF, he needs to stop shooting while standing still. Hell jiggle and wiggle if you have to, just end it with a step back and swish 3!
Harden has at least 10 40+ games in each of the last 4 seasons, which is the first one to do so after Micheal Jordan(89-93). That's quite remarkable considering there are many elite scorers after Jordan, Kobe, AI, KD, Lebron to name a few. None of them ever did that.
If James Harden plays the remaining 35 games without scoring a point, he'll still average over 20 points per game. Players currently averaging less than Harden's guaranteed season average (20.2 ppg): Mike Conley (super max contract) Julius Randle Luka Doncic Nikola Jokic Tim Hardaway Jr Jimmy Butler D'Angelo Russell Kyle Kuzma Danilo Gallinari Victor Oladipo Jamal Murray Derrick Rose Lou Williams JJ Redick Harrison Barnes Andrew Wiggins Clint Capela Khris Middleton Ben Simmons Brandon Ingram Deandre Ayton Jayson Tatum Eric Gordon Bojan Bogdanovic Trae Young (who said he'd lead the league in scoring as a rookie) Eric Bledsoe Aaron Gordon Malcolm Brogdon Montrezl Harrell Marc Gasol Steven Adams Jusuf Nurkic Domantas Sabonis Rudy Gobert Marcus Morris Emmanuel Mudiay Kyle Lowry Reggie Jackson Rudy Gay Kent Bazemore Dwyane Wade Kelly Oubre Jr Wesley Matthews Ricky Rubio Otto Porter Jr Myles Turner Hassan Whiteside Paul Millsap Jaylen Brown Al Horford Justise Winslow Jae Crowder Brook Lopez Joe Ingles Tristan Thompson DeAndre Jordan Gordon Hayward ^ These are some pretty good names that I'd love to have on the Rockets roster. Entire teams with all players averaging less than Harden's guaranteed 20.2 ppg: Nets Knicks Pacers Cavs Heat Hawks Nuggets Mavs Grizzlies
If Harden averages 21.2 ppg for the remaining 35 games, he'll still have a higher average than the next closest current player Steph Curry at 29.5 ppg.
Can someone explain to me why my MVP LEVEL Shooting Guard is our third leading Rebounder Second if you don't include the guy we picked up a week ago? Must he do EVERYTHING He second in Steals as well . . .. Rocket River
Is there a website out there that shows "Shots Created"? It's basically like assists, but would not take into account whether the receiving player made the shot, missed the shot or was fouled.
The closest thing to what you are describing is probably “potential assists”, available in stats.nba.com database under Tracking passing stats: https://stats.nba.com/players/passing/?sort=POTENTIAL_AST&dir=1
