    he's right. anyone can record a 60 point triple double against a lottery team during a regular season game. everyone does it!

    in order to make it count, he needs to do what no one has ever done before under any circumstance, and do it again!

    its called logic. look it up!

    Michael Jordan career high is also against a bad team in Cavaliers, 69 points, Skip Bayless never goes into details about Jordan against a bad team, Jordan first 7 years failed badly in the playoffs, Lebron James, Jerry West Most Finals appearance losses.

    They just spent the first 5-7 minutes of sports center on it.

    Shoulda been the whole episode.

    Media conspiracy.

    Durant isn't even ahead of Curry for the award, they're tied, its Harden, then LeBron, then Giannis, then Kyrie, Curry, and Durant. The fact that you said "very average warriors team" makes me question your bball IQ

    Come on, now. Can't blame ESPN for reporting on Love. An injury to a contender (even if they're more of a "pretender," at this point in time) is still bigger news than stats. It's not like Harden scored 82 or 101.

    With that said, I hope the media talks about Harden tomorrow.

    Skip is a loser who no one respects. I bet Sean Lee could get that according to Skip

    I think he's being sarcastic especially when he said everyone can do 60-pt triple double.

    ESPN twitter gave props.

    I mean, they slight James all the time, guess I shouldn’t be surprised.

    Espn also downplayed the trip dub significantly and their home page for NBA has Kevin Love injury over the Harden 60 pt TD

    Haha the skip bayless astroplane is a twisted one. Antagonists in his world would say that many have put up duds in high-pressure games in which they were favored, but only one man in the history of being had put up a 60-point triple double
