    Meanwhile, Westbrook with a pathetic 13 points on 18 shots. OKC lost to the Wizards fresh off of losing Wall

    Warriors getting trashed against a not very good Jazz team. Nice to see Rubio having a great game against them. 23 and 11 and a +31

    Wow what a bizarre 30 point loss by the Warriors. That doesn't happen to truly great teams. They don't even have any injury excuses.

    Don’t look now but warriors laid and egg.
    Course Jazz hit 50% of their 3’s

    They could have kept both as well as Durant.

    well they don't have the MVP Hargod

    ORL also hit pretty much half of their threes as well and see how that ended for them

    @basketballholic was right! Rubio is the key!

    Tonight was huge for Harden's MVP campaign. Lebron and the Cavs drop an egg against the Pistons missing starters on national TV. Fully healthy Warriors get blown out by 30 by non-playoff team, Westbrook and the Thunder snap their streak against the Wizards missing their star player. Meanwhile Harden breaks an all-time NBA record.

    yeah but KD left because of WB

    a team with WB ain't winning anything see last year and this years OKC. see oladipo

    WB would have taken shots, assists, and rebounds from both KD and Harden

    WB value replacement , Harden, KD, Ibaka, Adams = multiple rings

    Yeah , and I loved every second of it .

    I understand some nights you need efforts like that . I just feel we have been blessed with far too much .

    Despite how jubilant I am , I still wanna look at the bigger picture . I think this team can win it all , partially because James can do things like this . But , he's carried us so many times ... And tonight was great ... I just wish he didn't have to carry so much .

    yup couldn't be happier tonight. but true rockets fans already know James is GOAT offensively.

    if a ring is the goal this year, MDA and the rockets need to win or at least learn to win without harden playing MVP-like everynight

    in the playoffs 1 allstar vs 4 allstars not gonna cut it

    James Harden defeated the Orlando magic.
