    Wow... this was crazy.

    James Harden goes the length of the floor and dribbles behind-his-back through-his-legs to smoke Jrue Holiday and get the basket in the Houston Rockets game against the Philadelphis 76ers on 1/12/2013.

    Technically, should have been an offensive foul. :p

    Nice move, though.

    He may have double-dribbled, but there's no way you can tell in the replay. His right hand may not have touched the ball at all.

    No foul was committed. Compliant was unfounded.

    I thought the offensive player is not allowed use this off arm the way he did.

    Great play, but the enjoyment is sucked out knowing that we lost AGAIN.

    that's usually called for a bent arm fore-arm push off, not for a straight arm balance.

    Nah, the ball moved to his left, so it seems that he only touched it with his left hand. Besides, that type of double dribble is rarely called, because there's not much, if any, benefit with dribbling with two hands.

    Its such a great move by Harden and some people here on Clutchfans decided to downgrade it by sayings its double dribble or offensive foul... Geez, just enjoy it and stop trying to downgrade his move. Its a great move by Harden.
